GERRY'S HERE!!!!!!!!
Gerry's here!!! Gerry's here! Gerry's here! Gerry's heeeeere!!!! He came over today to see me and take all those boxes and the other couch I'm not allowed on and the Christmas tree. We must be moving. Every time Gerry comes over they move things and sweat and then Emmi has to use that sucky machine all over the floors. They weren't here much during the day, so I guess that's why Gerry hasn't taken me for a run yet. He usually takes me out and we run around and play. But it was a pretty busy day for them, so I'm sure something big is happening. One time when they came back Emmi smelled a lot like another dog- a baby dog. Like a puppy! I wonder if she's thinking of replacing me. Nah. She needs me too much. She can't even hear when people are outside our house that might be a danger to us... I have to tell her about it every time. Boy this place sure looks different without all of the decorations and the little couch and the closets are all empty. Maybe that's why Emmi is sad. This seems like a lot of work. Good thing they haven't figured out how to harness me into helping. Ha! I still have this bone to chew on- a lot of work of my own to get through before we leave this place. I'd better get back to it.

Change already!?
Emmi bought some more of that soft paper in the box the other day. Tish-yu's? I know she doesn't like when I eat them, but I LooOove those things! My belly kind of hurts today, but they are so delicious I can't help it! Hopefully she turns her head again so I can have some more later.
I'm a little worried because my Emmi is really down. She must have gotten some kind of news because she was crying really hard all morning. She started moving things around the apartment again and calling lots of people. I think I heard Mom on the phone for a bit. That was when she was really leaking that salty water. I tried to help clean it off her face but she didn't want that kind of help. She's been looking things up on the computer and talking on the phone to people we don't know a lot today. I thought we had to go back to bed but it looks like she doesn't have to go back to that place where she wears the purple outfit and is gone for So so long.

Not sure what it all means but we'll see soon I guess.

Gypsy Life: Texas
My grandma said today that I should start a blog. I think that's a great idea! I have so many ideas to share and life has been crazy lately!
My name is Connie. I am almost fifty years old and my sister decided to take me out on the road from Mom and Dad's house. I'm OK with that because my brother usually drove me crazy, being alpha dog and all that. Whatever, he didn't even have all his parts anymore. This way, I can be my own alpha and Emmi lets me sleep on the bed, so we're almost like equals. She still pours the food though so I still have to listen to her. I mean, I just want her to be happy anyway, so I try to be a "good girl" as she calls me.
I don't know what this place is she has brought me, but we're getting settled in, so I guess we'll be here awhile. It's hot and salty here though. I like our walks when the sun is low, but when it is high I can't walk very long, it gets too hot. The water tastes kind of funny, too, but I'm getting used to it. At first I thought it would be like the other places we stayed in between all that driving. One or two nights and we were back in the car. She takes me places in the car now too, but I don't have to crowd in with all her stuff. Especially that sucking machine. I hate that thing, the noise is horrible and I always think the floors are fine without running it all over the place. Anyway, she says we're in Texas, whatever that means.
She still goes to work for a long long time and I have to stay in the apartment. And she still smells funny sometimes after she comes home from that place. I'm not sure what she does but I know it has to do with moms and babies and fluid and bodies and stuff. She likes it most days I think. Sometimes she comes home and is very very tired, and sometimes she is very very sad. I think she misses Mom and Dad, and all those people we would go visit on the sidewalk sometimes. I haven't been to the sidewalk in a long time, but I know some of those people came to campfires at our house or she saw them a lot because I could smell them on her. They are such nice people. They all talk together and hold these necklaces when we meet on the sidewalk. They say we are praying for the unborn, but I just know we are meeting up to talk together in front of that scary place that smells horrible. It smells like evil and darkness and sadness and death. I hope we don't have to go back to that place, it should be shut down.
Today we went for a little trip in the car. She calls it the beach. The ground is very soft and warm, and there is no grass or trees. There is moving water, though, which is very salty and pretty noisy. I don't like that water. You can't drink it, you can't hide from it, it comes to get you if you stand too close, and it feels too much like she's going to try to bathe me. I hate baths. I do not like that water! I'm not sure why Emmi keeps trying to get me to go in there. But, I like the soft warm ground- it makes me want to run! And the little mounds away from the water, those were fun to climb today!
We went up higher than anything else on the beach today and it was breezy and cool! I loved climbing up there. I guess it's in my genes- being a mountain dog and all. Then we walked really really far down the beach without drinkable water, and I got very hot. So we went back to the car and I drank pretty much the rest of the water we had so we had to leave. She made me wait in the car when she went in to get some cold water but I was So glad she did. That was delicious.
I sure am pooped after all of that today though. I will have to give more updates later. Again, I don't know how long we'll be here but I hope its not forever. I keep losing my fur because of the temperature change!
