{Long} Weekend Vibes

THURSDAY

I had to work a very long day on Thursday so Mumsy took Toby with her when she left my house on Wednesday night. I missed Toby but, apparently, he didn’t seem to miss me.

If you never have before, you should try FaceTiming with a dog.

FRIDAY

My whole heart.
Watching and wishing he could go play with the dogs next door.

SATURDAY

I introduced Melissa to Young’s Jersey Dairy. We got milkshakes and visited the petting zoo.

SUNDAY

We took the boys to the BarkPark. Because of the extensive abuse and trauma Rusty endured during is puppyhood, he has some severe anxiety about strangers and new places. Though he’s never bitten anyone, we decided to muzzle him just as a precaution. He did so well at the park. The amount of progress he’s made in just 8 short months is amazing. It’s taken a lot of patience and consistency from us, which has tried our patience and resulted in our losing our cool sometimes but, overall, it’s been an amazing journey with this little boy.

He looks like Bane.

MONDAY

Every Memorial Day, Jessi’s gym does “Murph” a hero WOD in honour of Michael Murphy. It’s mentally grueling and physically challenging but so worth it. Plus this year Melissa was there to cheer her on. A great motivator.

Tornadoes were spotted close to where Jessi lives. Since her apartment building (an old Civil War era Victorian house) doesn’t have a basement, she had to improvise and go to the first floor and hide under the stairs near the main entrance. It was terrifying.
