I am so lonely

I am so lonely.  I am locked in the school kernel with hundreds of other dogs around me, but I have no one to play with.  MasterK is sad and lonely too, just look at this photo taken today.  To cheer him up, Erica drove MasterK to Denver for Dim Sum, but the food wasn't that good.

Back to school

I guess I am not doing well with traffic check.  Stephanie would take me back to guidedog school for retraining.  I will be leaving tomorrow morning and will be gone for at least 2 weeks.  I will miss MasterK and Crystal.  sad...sad.

Training day 1

My Guidingeye trainer, Stephanie, come to visit us today.  I am so happy to see her.  The purpose of the visit was to give us refresh course on traffic check and food avoidance.  In the morning, MasterK just took me for a long walk with Stephanie following us so she can gauge us how we doing.  She told us we were doing fine.  After lunch we worked on the traffic check.  While walking with MasterK, Stephanie repeatly drove her car in front of us to cut us off.  I didn't do too well the first few times, because I didn't slow down for the car, that because I forgot on how to handle this situation.  I gotten better after few tries but still need more practice tomorrow.  Afterward, we gone back home for food avoidance training.  I love to pick up food from street while working and that's a big NO NO.   Stephanie dropped some foods in front of me, if I go for it, MasterK would give me a leash correction.  If I don't fall for the temptation, I would get a big praise and a reword from MasterK.   After few repeat ions I learned not to pick up food from the the ground or from other person anymore.  She said we will practice  on the street tomorrow.   Stay turn.

Snow day

We woke up to about 6 inches of heavy wet snow this morning.  While MasterK shovel the heavy snow off the driveway, me and Crystal had fun running in the snow at the backyard.  Fun...fun.

 The snow was very heavy and wet, so a big tree limb was broken off from a tree from next house.  The tree limb landed in our yard and rest on the fence between our houses.  Luckly we cut down all the trees in our yard, those trees were so tall and weak, their tree limbs could be broken off and hit our house.

Prime Rib

We went to visit Megan in UNC today.  MasterK forgot to put on my harness, so it was a fun day for me, he had to hold on to mom to walk around.  We all had prime rib for lunch, but MasterK didn't like it.  He said the prime rib was over cooked, too dry and too chewy, so he gave half the rib to me under the talble, Oh Yum Yum, I just love it.  Mom get MasterK some omelet and a piece of fish and he like them.  After eating, Megan took us walk around the campus. 

RIP, Teemeemee

My good friend, Teemeemee, die today at the age of 11.  I will miss her morning songs.  The photo posted yesterday was the last live photo of Teemeemee, RIP.

Good deed, bad burger

It was too cold, so we didn't walk this morning.
At around 110:30AM, Suzy and Bill, MasterK's coworkers, came to pick us up to the Longmont library.  MasterK has asked his CCTV Magnifier that he had used at work be donated to the Longmont library.  MasterK also donate his older 17" LCD monitor.  So today we bought the equipment to the library and MasterK gave demo on the equipment usage to the library staff.  Now, MasterK can read the magazines in the library.  This is the good deed.  Erica came to library to meet us for lunch also.

After the library, MasterK, Suzy, Bill, Erica, and couple of other coworkers met at Red Robin for lunch.  MasterK order a simply grilled burger and it took 30minutes for the food to arrive.  All the food for others took long time too.  The burger was only lukewarm, over cooked and tasteless and the steak fries was missing from the order.  MasterK said Big Mac taste better than this overly priced burger.

After lunch, Erica drove us home and then we have a long walk under afternoon warm sun.

Look at this cute picture, Teemeemee just sat on top of MasterK's computer speaker and watched him type for long time.  Erica said the old bird may be sick and losing weight
