Spunk-o-meter

I would say that Lola is about 95% on the spunk-o-meter, that being up from about 90% yesterday. Yesterday, she pulled a couple of toys out of the toy box and played for a bit. She also was very interested in her favorite night pass time of ratting outside (looking for rats along the back and side fence).

Today, she has chased three squirrels out of the yard, played with her toys some more, and got paper out of the trashcan while I was away and shredded it like a canine paper shredding machine!

She has been eating pretty well, so I went and bought a new kind of food that she is eating (because of course she doesn't like the $25 bag of food I purchased last week from the vet, but now prefers the kind she was getting at the hospital during this last 5 day visit!). The vet says that the more she eats the quicker she should heal up, so I think that is a good sign too.

We are still dragging to get back on schedule after being out of town for so long unexpectedly. It would be a little easier if I hadn't been down in my back for about 4 weeks now, but I've found a new over-the-counter drug that is helping a bit, so maybe I will be able to make more progress this weekend. Last night I caught up on laundry and I have now taken down the outside Christmas decorations and put them up. I also have taken down all of the random Christmas decorations throughout the house and have them placed back in their storage containers. I still haven't taken down the three trees or ornaments on them, but I figure I will get there when I get there. At least people who drive by don't know how behind I am and most other people don't know (well of course unless they read my blog!).

I'm anxious to change the background on my blog, but where I get my backgrounds is under construction, so changes will come hopefully soon!

Europe 2024 {Day 10 ~ Munich, Germany}

On December 22nd, I departed Salzburg train station at 8:00 and arrived in Munich at 9:40.  The station is under construction and a real mess!  I finally made my way out and found it was really raining.  I made my way to a taxi and took it to my hotel.  My hotel room wasn't ready but they kept my bags for me and I headed out.   I have been to Munich a couple of times and wanted to see a couple of things I haven't had a chance to do before.  I planned to to go to the Nazi Documentation Center first since it was raining, but when I looked it up on my phone to double check the hours, I learned they had just closed for renovations.  So rain or not, I was going to have to head out to Nymphemburg Palace.  I took the tram out and then walked to the palace. I don't know why, but I didn't take many pictures on the inside. I also bought a ticket to the Royal Stables Museum which houses lots of coaches. I really found all the sleighs to be a sight to see, bu...
