Daily Bliss - 4/28/10

Today was a nice day. Mellow, relaxing... and stomach-churning. NOT in a bad way - it's The Hubs birthday, and his bday wish for the actual day were to sit around the house, watch the SF Giants game, and pig out. We're working on changing our eating habits around - cutting out processed food and junk food, eating better foods (and smaller portions), and basically just improving our health for ourselves and for starting a family soon. (NO, I'm not pregnant, but we're... hoping for an accident.) So today's indulgences have made me a little queasy. Ick.
Not only was it nice to just hang out at home with my husband (who took the day off from work), but our dog was feeling better today. She was acting sick last night, and like she was in pain, and it freaked us out a bit. We suspect that she ate an errant pinto bean that fell on the floor while cooking - internet research showed that it can cause gas in dogs like it can in humans, so since she appears to have made a complete recovery, we suspect it was her tummy being bloated from the bean that made her so low-energy and sad last night. She was her happy, spritely self as soon as we woke up this morning, so we were relieved! She's acted like nothing's wrong since - ate her breakfast and half her dinner, happily ate some treats, jumped up and down from the couch... she's good!

This picture wasn't taken today, but it shows one of my favorite views: Her face when we're playing tug-of-war with her toys.
See why I love her so? That face just kills me.
