Not so Fast Spring...Winter '08 will not Relent!

Spring is no longer in the air - those are snow flakes hitting you in the eye. It snowed in Chicago all morning. It was very sad. Boo-hoo.

Spring is in the Air

It is finally looking and feeling like Spring in Chicago. While we took this picture (<-) in South Carolina, it's not too far away a common Illinois display. Although, Cubs Opening Day is Monday which means the weather will inevitably revert to 30 and snowy.

Poor Big-Boga Lovin' - Day 3 of Diet

Bogie's vet called this morning to make sure we started Bogie's diet (I'm not kidding). Bogie was really hoping that we would 'forget' about said diet, so he's quite depressed (->) to hear that 'follow-ups' were already happening. We've started giving him half of small treats - vs. full small treats - as a first measure. And the occasions that he begs hard enough for scraps of human snacks have come to a halt. Hopefully these small steps will have an impact.
