Thursday
Alright! Simon and I are country dogs now. Mom is doing her travel job and we get to go stay with nana. Yeah! I get to run and run and run. And I can sleep in the bed if I want to. Simon can't cuz he's to little to jump up there. I hope we get to go for a walk this weekend, so I can chase some lions and tigers and bears and roll in the mud and splash in the creek. Country living is so much fun!

Well yesterday Simon managed to get me in trouble. He's so jealous that I'm getting extra food and car rides. He told me he saw a mountain lion in the neighbor's yard and it was going to pounce on our mom. I ran over there to scare it away with my mean face and growl. Boy did he run. The problem was that by the time Mom got there I had scared him so bad he was out of sight and she never saw him. So now she thinks I just ran into the neighbors yard and Simon just kept smilin. He never once said he saw it too. geez my mom needs to remember I'm a sick boy. I can't take the stress of being yelled at, especially when I'm trying to save her from a mountain lion.

Boy my mom sure is grumpy. She says I'm sick, but she's been layin around all week and everytime I try to help her she gets grumpy. Me and Simon offered to take over washin the dishes, yum!!!!!!! but she said no. And with her being sick, I have to stand guard whenever we go outside cuz I know she doesn't feel like it and do you think she's appreciative? noooooooooooooooo. Today she even yelled at me to come back inside. geez, I hadnt' checked out all the hiding places for lions and tigers and bears, oh my! Maybe I should share my medicine from the doctor place with her. Maybe that will help her get better. I guess I'll just be sure to give her lots of hugs and kisses tonight and maybe then she'll be better. I hope so.

My mom is kinda sad today, so I'm writing the news. I went back to that doctor place and they stuck that darn needle in me again. I'm getting tired of that. They said my medicine isn't working. I wonder what they mean, I feel fine and I like the special food I get with my medicine. Anyway it mad my mom sad. It sounds like I have to get more medicine and then more tests with that needle. Now they are making me sad. I'm not sure I'm going to keep going to see them if they don't stop poking me.

Monday
Well mom must have read my diary cuz I got a new toy this weekend. It's a hedgehog and its much better than that old monkey was. I bet she really told them at that store about giving me a defective toy. Happy Happy playing with my hedgehog. Mom says I have to share with Simon cuz I got to play with his toy some. I told him he can play with it whenever I'm asleep. Not sure he liked that answer cuz then he tried to eat my special dog food that mom feeds me every day from the doctor. It's yummy and I think he is jealous

Saturday
Well I just read mom's post and I'm sure not happy. She bought me this great toy this week, but it was obviously defective. When I played with it and tossed it around all the stuffing just fell out of it. When I showed mom, she grumbled and stuffed it all in a bag. I thought she was taking it back to the store to tell them if was defective and get me a new one. But nooooooo now I find out she thinks it's my fault and not that darn monkey's fault. That is so unfair. I guess I'll just go play with Simon's raccoon. At least she bought him a toy that is not defective. Now if I can just sneak it away from him......
