You Don't See This Often

I woke up yesterday to the sound of a helicopter. That's not unusual since the election. You see, I don' live far from the Trump building, so I've been used to helicopters for awhile now.

But imagine my surprise when I saw this.


Wow, was this close or what? And it was missing the cabin. But that's because it was moving very large metal boxes (Mommy said maybe air conditioning units).



Pretty cool, huh?

Spring Break

Mommy was on a business trip this week. And you know what that means...I got to play with my friends all week.

I have to mention that Mommy spotted a famous person in the in flight magazine. This guy - who shall remain nameless. He's the husband of one of Mommy's friends. In fact, she had dinner with him (and her friend) while on her trip.


I even made the social media feed of my boarding place. I'm really famous Now!


While I was playing with my friends, Mommy was presenting to 500 people. She does communicate for a living, but she dislikes public speaking. I heard she killed it, but Mommy doesn't want to talk about it.



Mommy picked me up yesterday morning. She tried to take my photo, but I wasn't having it (really I was just trying to make her feel bad for leaving me for the week).







I finally got to sleep in my own bed last night (and with my PEEP).

Fat Tuesday

It was Fast Tuesday this past week. And in Chicago, they celebrate with a Polish pastry called at Paczki. Essentially it is a fried dough filled with cream or jelly.

Mommy wasn't impressed, but I sure was.

King of the Mountain

It's one of my favorite days...change the sheets on the bed day!

Escaping Snowmegeddon

Mommy had to take a quick trip to Florida this week. She - and I - was worried she wouldn't make it back on her Friday flight  (it didn' get cancelled and it landed 20 minutes early).




Mommy stayed at this cool hotel that was really a resort. She had her own "villa." Look at the view from her balcony; pretty cool.

Of course that meant I got to play with my friends. The ladies told Mommy they adjusted some things to see if I'd stop taking a bath on my water and eating more.

First, they put me in a new kennel. That kennel also had a different set up, which allowed them to hang a water bucket  (kind of like Dad's water bottle). They also taped down my food bowl. Success! I ate more and I didn't play in my water.

As I mentioned before, Mommy got home last night. So she missed the storm. But, she got to experience it today on her way to pick me up. The streets right around my boarding facility had not been plowed. So it was challenging.



But success! Mommy pushed through it to bring me home.

Snow Day

I've spent the entire snow day doing this:










6 More Weeks of Winter

That groundhog, Phil, saw his shadow this week. And boy was he right. The snow has arrived.
