Chef David

Not much new to report. David continues to have brief periods of pain or discomfort or just being out of sorts but is pretty much his normal happy self most of the time. Most of this is probably surgery related, but I also suspect some toddler crabbiness and perhaps a touch of milking it for what it's worth. He has tried to avoid nap time and a diaper change by asking for "mesds" (medicine) in a very pathetic voice.
I'm off work all this week, but Alma is coming, too. It's been nice to be able to take care of his meds and incision and spend some quality time with him but also have an extra pair of hands so I can sneak away and get some cleaning and errands done, too. For example, today I vacuumed the equivalent of 2 Snoopies worth of dog hair from our bedroom floor. I don't even think that's an exaggeration.

Here are 2 more pictures in our "It's a Dog's Life" series


David helping me get asparagus ready for tonight's dinner. He also took a couple of bites of raw asparagus and enjoyed it very much. Maybe next time I won't bother cooking it.
