8:00 p.m.
I spent another day cleaning and sorting and going through cabinets full of stuff. In the process, I made a disconcerting discovery: my puppy's stuff has taken over two full shelves of pantry space in the kitchen. I'm not sure how she did it, it just happened.
And there's her toybox. When I first brought Dusty home, all of her toys fit nicely in her toybox - in fact, *she* could fit comfortably in it and often climbed in! Now, neither Dusty nor her toys fit in her toy box.
In the process of cleaning out Dusty's stuff, I rediscovered an old favourite toy of hers, the 'IQube.' It's a cloth cube with balls inside - the dog pulls the balls out through holes in the cube.
Dusty is newly fascinated by this toy, which is good because while she's otherwise occupied, I'm going to strategise a way to keep her from taking over the rest of my apartment! ;-)
