Allow me to introduce.... OSCAR!!!

Puppy!

We picked this little guy up from a rescue on sunday. He's a lab mix. We're not quite sure of his breed. This is my first dog... Maggie's had many.

He's a happy little camper... unless we leave him alone. We are crate training him. He's not very fond of that at all. He'll grow out of it though. He came from a litter of 5, so up til sunday night, he had never spent a moment alone in his short life. It's kinda cool that we can go outside and he just follows us.

Anyhow, he needs a name, and we're still undecided. Dontknow I kinda like "Champ". We live right by Lake Champlain, which has it's own version of the Locke Ness monster called "Champ". Maybe Oscar. Maybe Joey. (Cats - Chloe+Zoe)

While I'm being a postwhore... why stop here? I had a fun weekend at Lake George NY... rented a pontoon boat and explored the lake. My MIL is looking to buy a pontoon boat so we thought we'd test drive one. (if anyone has advise on brands or anything.. I'm all ears since she's kinda put me on research)

Yesterday, I had 2 wisdom teeth pulled, and also 4 biopsies on these little white spots on my cheeks. I chew my cheeks a lot so they're pretty sure it's just scar tissue, but yea, my mouth is a bit of a mess right now. God bless good painkillers. Weeeeeeeee!

Yea, he's def got a funny little smile in that pic. He's like a little teddy bear. I can't wait til he's old enough to take to work. Many of my coworkers bring their dogs to the office. Now if I could teach him to ride on my motorcycle... Scratchchin

Oooh call him Harley. Wink

How did your mil handle the pontoon? Did you have to get it on and off a ramp? Those things are bulky yet fun once in the water.

Freaky? What do you mean freaky? It goes by in a breeze. For the bottom wisdom teeth they take these medical plier looking things, and stick it in your mouth, jiggle them a little bit and then pull out the wisdom tooth. For the top wisdom tooth for me they had to cut my gum open, because the tooth was growing on top of another tooth, so I don't know what the "standard" procedure is.

I'm getting the other 2 teeth pulled in less than 2 weeks. nod

Dontknow It's not too bad.

This just in... Maggie wants to call him Oscar. Oscar it is.

MIL actually has a dock and a boat lift on the lake. Thing is.. it's a lift for traditional style boats... won't work for a pontoon. Kinda like the one below.

I'm betting she won't even use it unless I or someone else is there to operate it. (she says she will though)

Frown I just pulled out one of the stiches in my mouth... argh... can't stop messing with them!
