Lola Bean is a very nervous dog. She is very afraid of strangers and takes a pretty long time to actually warm up to them. I notice this weekend though that she did pretty well with having a few people over and it made me glad. She really warmed up to Amanda and even got a little crazy on us. It was too cute, I love my little lola.

I hate it that tomorrow is Monday though and I won’t get to even see her until well into the night.

Today Paul and I were throwing a ball for Lola Bean outside, like we do about 7 or 8 times a day when I noticed she started to limp. She must’ve done something funny to her leg when she was chasing after the ball. I think it may be muscular because Paul tried to see if he could figure out where it hurt, but it didn’t bother her at all.

It really breaks my heart to see my little baby limping around. I’m hoping it’ll be all better by morning… it doesn’t seem to keep her from running or having a good time so I’m not super worried by it. It just makes me really sad.

I love my dog Lola more than life itself. She is the cutest and sweetest thing that ever happened to me and I feel more than blessed to have her in my life. I don’t know if feeling that way is a little over the top for a pet, but I wouldn’t doubt it… I got used to being over the top long ago! I need to look into dog grooming to get her looking pretty and fresh. Not that she isn’t already!

Now that she isn’t exactly a puppy anymore, she’s chilled out a lot. She hardly ever runs her crazy circles throughout the house, and if she does she pays the price. She sliiiiides across the hardwood floors in the house, it’s pretty funny, but when she runs into things I feel bad for her.

People have mentioned before how quiet and almost nervous she has become. I really believe that pets take after her owners and it seems like she picked up some unfortunate personality traits from yours truly.
