    I slept pretty well, except I woke up with my legs killing me. I decided yesterday to see how Zena and her BFF Ally walk together and took them BOTH on walk. They walk very well together but uh Ally is a bit exuberant. I practically jogged the entire time and I’m not a runner. That says something if a dog that’s 3 inches taller than Zena can control me by making me jog to keep up with her!

    Allow me to describe Ally the German Shepard/Husky mix’s leash for you–it’s about two feet long and made of CLIMBING ROPE. It isn’t that she doesn’t walk well, it’s just that she is very exuberant.

    I think the only bad note about that walk was that at the end of the walk, a big, fluffy brown bunny decided to pose on the sidewalk. Let’s just say both pooches went after said bunny. Zena didn’t get very far as I finally bought her a harness but Ally about ripped out my arm! Definitely not an everyday thing but occasionally they can walk together.

    Good features!

      Hi Kate & Zena,

      It sounds like you guys had quite the walking adventure. I used to have a dog like Ally who was uh, not the most well behaved creature on a leash. He was a black lab named Bell.:)

      Anyway, hope your legs feel better soon.

    Karen,

    It isn’t that Ally is not well-behaved on a lead, she was a tad exuberant as she normally is just on a huge tie-on outside. She needs to be taken on a walk more often, I think, as she is part Husky. She listens very well but I think her mind had on perma-loop, “WALK! WALK! WALK! WALK! WALK!” so she wasn’t exactly paying attention. Her tail was vigorously wagging at the end of that walk and she gave she big, wet slobbery kisses which was a first. She just needs more walking and not so much time on the tie-on.

    The leg pain usually goes away after three days. The joys of Cerebral Palsy. I just kinda go easy on my legs for the next few days.

    I totally heart my Clarisonic!! I just got it this past March and I’ve been using for about a month. It’s soo good! Like going to get a microderm. I will never NEVER part with it!

    Thanks for the link love 🙂 Crabtree and Evelyn is traditionally a great skin care line. The aromatherapy line is not different! I especially love the lavender scented products!

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
