Doggie Got Bigger
Well since I had pictures of the cute little puppy I have decided to post the grown up version. She still has a lot of growing still to go but at this point she has grown enough.
Right now we are dealing with an ear infection with her that has cost so far $162.00. She has already been fixed and all shots, so the hospital bill is with any luck under control.
Overall she is a great dog, she is so smart it is ridiculous. You can tell her to do things, and she listens but it goes beyond that, she even does things ahead of time. Knows when to go to her crate for the evening and such It is so awesome.
We are currently training her with a special collar that is designed for her not to pull on the leash, which currently is an improvement.
I will say one thing, when your kids say “get a dog, and we will do everything, clean the yard, take her for walks, feed her, everything" DON'T Believe Them !

Long Time No See
Well here I am...
Have gone through a lot the last 8 months. First off I gained back 40lbs of the 90 I lost the year before that. Going to the gym just didn't hold up to the different shifts i was working and therefore I stopped going.
That has been a big obstacle in my life because I reached a point where I was in the BEST shape I have ever been in, and I blew it.
Now I am embarrassed to go back. I mean I was a poster-boy around there, often talking to people who asked how I did it, and was an inspiration to many. I couldn't go a week without someone coming up and complimenting me and asking for tips and pointers on how to get as far as I did.
I look at it as letting a lot of people down but more importantly myself. I even have avoided contact with some people (Arc), strictly because of the fact that it is fucking embarrassing.
I have started again, going to the gym that is. The way I look at it I can do it again, I already proved that; the only thing is that I also know how hard it was to get there. My mistake was not realizing that I could have backed off to only 3 days a week and I wouldn’t have slipped.
I was going to post some new pictures of Java, but I seem to be having difficulties connecting up via FTP to transfer them up. Arc if you read this, can I please? That is if it is anything on that end.
Well it is a new year... sorry for hiding.
