F’n Dogs

CJ’s better. His ear is healthier than I think it’s been in months, but he’s refusing to eat. Not everything, just what we make for him.

Christmas Eve – Bike Shop

I had some time to kill while Jen and her Mother got things done around the house, so Abigail and I went to the bike shop. Ooooh. Was that fun. We tried on helmets. And even tried a bike. Of course all of it is still waaaay too big, but we got time. – b
