New York City

 A couple weekends ago we took a trip down to the city to see JoAnne & Peter
 My GPS sent us a different way this time
 We were headed to the George Washing bridge
 Why is it every time we're on this thing we're always on the lower level?
 Isn't it a beautiful bridge
 We were following the Hudson river

 These buildings remind me of legos
 That is an ocean liner....it is huge!
 See the waterside park on top


 They live on the corner of 30th st & 10th Ave....that brown building behind the crane
 Just two short blocks in from the river
 It was like can we get there from here??? 

The traffic was crazy, so much construction, parking garage was full & Popster asking "What should I do?"  I said "Take a right & pull over so I can figure it out"

Wrong!!

We had turned into a one way street facing the wrong direction.  Four lanes of bumper to bumper traffic coming at us.  I called JoAnne & yelled help!  In the time it took her to get downstairs & find us we must have had 10 people tell us we were facing the wrong direction.  We managed to get turned around & were able to park in her spot in the garage as her car wasn't there.

  1. OMG...I'd did that in London once but traffic wasn't that bad but it was still scary as sh...ugar. Lovely views. So much travelling but you need to come south-er!

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Liza's treat ball

This is one of the most important things in our house - it is Liza's treat ball! I bought this about 9 or 10 years ago & it had a "trap door" where the gaping hole is & when you put treats in it you could control how easily they would fall out as the ball rolled around. Liza learned that if she rolled it down the stairs the treats would usually fall out which is why it looks this way. I have tried super glue etc. but it never stays together! It is sadly beaten & broken but try as I may I have never been able to find another one like it. I have spent hours looking & have bought many similar but nothing will ever take it's place. She knows where it is almost all the time - usually keeps it in her bed - but when it's missing she just paces the house until someone helps her find it. She used to be able to hold it in her mouth like this by just hooking it onto her eye tooth Now she just puts her bottom jaw into the opening like this There is a rit...
