We cancelled our walk today due to the wind chill, Plato could handle it with ease. Not me though.
Siberians handle temps down to like 50 below.

We play a lot of fetch and tag.

While I was on the computer, he stole and ate my pear (2nd incident like that). He usually gets about a fourth of the pears I try to eat daily.

I wasn't correcting any errors. I had to watch the video 3 times all the way through to realize that yes, the ball was there. I had been looking for Plato to pick up some kind of ball and run with it, tossing it into the air. But the ball just sat there...three times it took me to see that it was the correct video. I am laughing at how slow my brain is becoming.

There are 2 videos there. One where he talks back to the ball was posted this morning about 8 or 9 am. It's in a wooden floor room (computer room), the other is in the living room (posted after midnight, very early today). The first one is less than a minute, the one referred to originally (but wrong one posted) is 1.5 minutes in length.

Gonna grab some popcorn and watch again. I could watch Plato all day.

We had lower wind speeds this evening, so we all bundled up and had a ball playing on the deck in the softly falling snow.

Nice, Chelle!

Made this video 'public' so that it's now accessible.

What am I doing wrong? I click on it and it says: You must create a channel to upload videos. Create a channel

This link works perfectly! Thank you Greene for posting it. Jack, your link actually brings me to MY page of videos that *I* have made & posted. Too weird! That happened once before with me when a friend gave me a link to one of her videos.

I love that video!!!! Everything about it. I love seeing Plato's reaction and also hearing him "talk".

Didn't want to go out today. But Lily was bored after no exercise walk yesterday. So put on her thick red christmas sweater and on top of that her LL Bean Pea Coat so she was bundled up plenty. Bundled myself up also and yes we went for our exercise walk.

Hurray for warm clothing and lots of good exercise.

We looked like we were ready for the arctic!

I have a full length down coat with hood. It's very puffy, and looks terrible on me, but it's the best coat for real warmth. I wore it to some outdoor Christmas markets in Germany one year, and I was the only warm one in our group. Whe it's really cold and snowy in NM I wear it and hope no one sees me!

When we went to visit DS last year in IN in the winter I borrowed a friend's down coat. It saved my life!

When I am dressing for my exercise walk I am not worried about how I look, only if I am going to be warm enough. I am sure I don't look that great but I don't care. I want to be warm enough to stay outside. Thick coats are good!!!

Oh I wanted to add that Lily had her raw chicken wing again today. She does love her raw chicken. But then she is perfectly happy to eat cooked chicken also.

Indi had his first play day at daycare today, so he's a happily tired out fella. He abandoned his cautious demeanor and was playing with some new buddies in less than five minutes. The gals that worked with his group said he did just fine, and that they're looking forward to his next visit. They actually filled out a report card about his day that said he played well with everyone. Before we left he sat in front of the gal who was helping us and offered to shake (unprompted by anyone) to thank her for the fun! What a good boy.
