The Vet, and the Groomers!

This has been a terribly busy week for Charlie! The poor dog was traumatized two days in a row because he had to go to the vet and he had to get a haircut! Now Charlie really does not like the vet or the groomers, but he makes it much worse then it actually is by worrying himself so much! A few weeks ago Charlie got a reminder card in the mail that he needed to go to the vet for his check up and bordartella shot. I finally got around to making the appointment Monday and he went on Tuesday. He was fine in the car on the way down, just enjoying his car ride and when we got the vet he wanted to get out and he was excited!! That quickly changed! As soon as he was out of the car it hit him! He realized we were at the horrifying vets!!!! He did an about turn and went the other way. I let him walk away (he was leashed) but he did have to go in so I had to pick him up and take him in. He shock so much!!! He got is check up and his shots and we left, it really wasn't that bad!

Wednesday Charlie had his hair cut. Again he makes it worse then it is and I don't see why he doesn't enjoy it!!! He was getting hairy so he did need one! He looks soooooo cute now!!!!! He has been catching up on much needed sleep today. He can rest well knowing he won't have to go back to the vet for another year, hopefully, and the groomers for at least 3 months!

See how hairy he was!!! I don't have an after picture this time!

Ok so this isn't Charlie, but I had to put it up...my lovely mother! Goofing off of course!

And my mom again!

Slacking

I admit that I have been very bad about posting regularly, but whenever I have something to post I am never near my computer and then by the time I am, I forget! Anyway, Charlie has been very good this past month. :) He has been sleeping, playing with the doggy guests, having a vacation from the family, and of course being his cute self.

Last week my family, minus Charlie went to Las Vegas. Charlie stayed home with a neighbor and I am sure he enjoyed having a break from the family! :) Las Vegas was really fun. We left Friday the 9th and came back a week later on the 16th. We went to the strip and visited many casinos, we went to the Red Rock Canyon and also the Hoover Dam. It was a very fun vacation. It was nice to have sun for once! We didn't get much of that this summer in Seattle!

We have only been home for a couple days, but it already feels like we have been home forever! It is weird how that works. Today my mom and I went to Bellevue Square because I needed some new clothes for the fall/winter and JcPenneys always has great deals! I also got some legos! I have been wanting them for awhile now as it has been awhile since I last bought some! I bought Diagon Alley and The Knight Bus from the Harry Potter set! I don't know where I will be able to put these legos! I never have enough room for them, but I keep buying them anyway!

Charlie slept while we were gone or so I assume! He has been sleeping pretty much all the time since Friday....Apparently he didn't get a good enough rest while we were gone on vacation. Probably was too worried about where we were to really sleep deeply!

There is not much else to mention. I start school here tomorrow, though I don't have to go to campus until Tuesday. I also might as well make an "official" announcement that I will be leaving my job at Great Harvest Bread. I thought after three years I should try my hand at something else while I have the chance to easily switch jobs. I also needed some more time to be able to volunteer for school. It isn't a requirement, but I thought it would look good for when I put in my transfer applications to the various colleges I would like to go to!

I have said this in the past, but I will try to be more diligent about blogging! It's just hard to think of things to say!! Charlie will still be included in the posts, but I think I need to start blogging about myself and other things as well! I do hope people enjoy reading this though!
