We are well – and spending the time to bond. Carli has been the perfect excuse to continue to chill and very gradually catch up on adult things that accumulated while I was traveling. Still not done yet. I am make NO progress on figuring out anything moving forward – but then I am not really trying.
Yesterday I took some pics of me trying to walk Carli. These are her 3 poses for ‘not interested in walking:
It is easier to move her along with her new purple harness. I have tried rewarding with treats but each treat gets us only 3-4 feet.Today she actually sniffed and explored without being coaxed too much. Her eating is a bit erratic. Last night she noticed our shadows while walking and was startled by them. Tonight she discovered she could go under the bed for the first time. We had a play date earlier in the week with Brady and Cinnamon my 2 grand dogs and that went well enough. We had both outdoor and indoor time and she even got to a bit of playfulness.
I went biking again last night with the Nashville Slow Riders – a bit larger group and longer ride than last week. It is a nice group of people.
I met a woman last night who invited me to ride with the Nashville Black Girls Do Bike group tonight. It was a smaller group with a similar route as previous night. I am getting more familiar with the cycling routes in north and East Nashville which is good. I am just going to have to get used to the idea that I am going to have to drive to places to cycle. It appears that I can find different groups to ride with most days of the week once I sort it all out. It is fun to be meeting people.
I had the preliminary visit from the cabinet guy for the kitchen renovation this week as well so some progress is being made.
