It got up to the 80s this weekend and this was Elka’s response: too hot. She is like the princess and the pea – things are either too hot or too cold. Precious thing, so fearless, yet also fragile – aren’t we all like this? Strong in some ways, and crumble in other ways – directional strength.
This is birthday week for Edda and we happily started it by having ice cream last night in the summer-like evening. We walked to Carmen’s – ok we drove to Carmen’s and walked the 500 feet to the line and Elka got pets and Edda decided to upgrade from her regular vanilla ice cream with rainbow sprinkles to a more grown up chocolate with chocolate sprinkles. As we stood in line, we texted Vince about his new apartment and IKEA furniture construction. And then we went to bed early.
Thank you for saying this about Elka! My dog is the SAME. One day it’s too cold and the next day it’s too hot. There’s a narrow band from like 50-60 where she’s excited to be outside. *sigh* Why do we have dogs like this?
