Settling in

Another crazy morning with escapee Harley. I feel like a new mom bringing home her third child. There's a new baby in the house, so the middle child acts up. I was just a hair too slow on getting the mudroom door closed, so off went Harley on the run again. However, the good news is that I learned enough from yesterday's breakfast debacle that Midnight and Halo each ate their own food, Harley came home relatively quickly, and I managed to straighten my hair and get out of the house 15 minutes earlier than yesterday. Small victories. :)

Halo spent her first day at Tia Stefanie's condo while I worked today. Thank you, Stefanie, for providing Halo a home away from home where I can easily get to her during the workday! I discovered, though, that taking Halo in public (the condo entrance and parking lot) is going to mean that everything I do takes twice along because she is soooo doggone cute (pun intended)! Stef's neighbors saw me bringing Halo out to get busy and spent a few minutes looking at her and talking to me. As I advanced to the car, some teenagers stopped to see her, which led to a family in a car pulling up to chat. Time elapsed from condo door to driving away: about 20 minutes for a 5 minute task. I guess that means I need to correct my math from four sentences ago; it took four times as long! However, it makes for a great way to do PR for Fidelco! Who can resist a puppy, especially one destined for greatness!

Halo's getting the hang of "getting busy" outside, or is that me just learning to pay more attention and be proactive? Whichever it is, we're quickly getting there...

Time to post this so I can enjoy watching Harley and Halo playing.
