A day in the life of Buster

It's rough being Buster.

First he spent the night before at Bart's house - they had a slumber party, because I had to spend the night in the hospital.  The next morning, we (Buster, Bart, Penny, Sarah, and I) went to our new favorite place - The Coffee Loft.

The Coffee Loft is a coffee shop with a dog park in the back.  So we can sit out back sipping on our coffees and watching the dogs run around.  The best part is the dogs are allowed inside the shop as well.


Penny lounging inside the coffee shop.

Bart exploring upstairs.  He is spying and barking at everyone below.

Buster relaxing on a couch.  It got too hot to be outside at the dog park part of the coffee shop.

Tired - nap time.

More napping

Not the best picture, but we are at Bookman's.  It's a used bookstore.  Penny was on my back in her muttmover backpack.  Penny is not to be trusted on a leash in Bookman's.  She's pooped in there before.

Not pictured, was later Buster got a bully stick.
Then he proceeded to sleep the rest of the evening away because he had such an adventurous day!

My new love

I haven't been running nearly as much as I should be - especially since I have a 5K coming up in July with my mom.  We'll be running in Chico on the 4th of July!

But I've been spending my exercise/work out time somewhere else these days.  Megan and Sarah got me going to the climbing gym several months ago now and well...I'm hooked.

It's my new favorite activity - I'm stronger than I think I've ever been before.  I can do pull-ups, which is amazing and I don't think I've ever been able to do before.  And I will spend hours at the climbing gym and not even feel like 5 minutes has passed.
If you can believe it - I even got my mom to go climbing with me in Sacramento the last time I was home! 

Below are a sequence of pics of me climbing a few months ago.

Couch to 5K

Congratulations to my momma!  I just wish I had a medal for her.  Next time.
In 8-9 weeks my mom went from the couch to running a 5K with me in Tucson! Yahoo!
And she still looks good! :)

New rotation!

Last month - I was busy on inpatient. Basically working 12.5+ hr days 6 days a week.
To say the least - I enjoyed my first day of radiology. Woke up at 6am (the time I was getting to the hospital all last month).

Puppy walk and mommy run! Woo!
