Fiorella vs. Contact Sports

Fio is opposed to all professional--and college--contact sports. She thinks all games should be amateur, played for the sake of fellowship and running off energy rather than winning. When winning becomes the goal, emotions of players and fans run too high, opening  the door to enmities, grudges, and riots, not to mention betting, bribery, and cheating.

That's where Fiorella stands, and she's standing firm.

Dogs Rule

Sonya has reached another stage of development.  She wants to play all the time so Mommy is teaching her "fetch," but she hasn't quite caught onto "drop it," which means the game ends up in a tug match, which Mommy does NOT want.

Sonya's baby teeth are gone so she doesn't draw blood anymore, but she uses her new, larger teeth on Mommy's hands to try to get Mommy to do things for her.  Sort of like, "You have an opposable digit--do something with it!"

Fio's household operates on a series of doggie gates.  The kitchen and den are partitioned off from the rest of the house to restrict Sonya and Bosco's activities.  We call that area doggiedom.
