Hi, I'm Molly. I watch Julie write all this nonsense about blah blah blah but I had a big day today, so I'll write today.

This morning after we did a really weird run where we went fast and then slow and then fast again and then slow Julie got in the shower like usual and I thought it was another day of home alone. Then she started moving slower and never left! She asked if I wanted to go in the car. Did I?!?! I jumped to the front door and away we went.

We went to her old place where there's a yard and I can run around with no leash. I danced around because it was the best thing ever. Then Julie got out this weird thing that's like a vacuum, and I barked at it like a vacuum, but it's quieter and I'm not allowed to try to bite it. The green thing is a push reel mower and it sort of eats some of the grass but most of it gets just pushed down. I like to roll in the newly cut-off grass and I like to bark at the mower until Julie yells at me. Then the mower found this big stick and I played with the stick some until i snapped it into little pieces. Julie took forever to cut all that grass and I got sort of bored but it was nice being off the leash.

Then I saw a bird in the tree and the tree had a really low branch. So I decided I was going to climb the tree. I tried and I tried but I was tired from all that running and playing today, so instead I sat at the bottom of it and whined. Julie then put a box right under the tree- totally in my way! She kept trying to get me to stand on it. Dumb.

Anyway, then we went to the garden store where everybody loved me and gave me treats, but they were icky so I didn't eat them, and then after that we went to the pet food store! That nice long-haired guy was there and when Julie couldn't decide what kind of food to get me, the nice guy opened two sample packs to let me choose. I liked them both and ate them all, so in the end Julie just chose. Then she told him I eat bananas and he brought me this treat that was a chicken wrapped around a banana! So good. Anyway, we bought treats and a toy and food and went home. Then Julie gave me a big bone to distract me so I wouldn't bother her while she mixed the new and old foods. I'm stuffed.

Anyway, I'm pooped. I hope we take a nap soon. Usually I nap all day long.
