Wanted: W words

Which kind do you mean? The fast, sugary kind?
And the fat certainly isn't helping -- it's pretty much all calories, like sugar, but does nothing whatsoever to bring my sugar back up when it's low.

Lose the pastries and the carbs that convert instantly to sugar like chips of any kind. Create a healthy diet and stick to it.

Do as I say, not as I do.

I used to prefer big dogs too and thought I would never have a little dog. That they’re too fragile or breakable or whatever and not huggable, etc. but then I fell in love with them they’re pretty great!!! Highly underrated. Some of them are full of spunk and personality from the ones I’ve met! I actually think I would prefer a smaller/more medium type dog now anyway. Gator was great but waaaaaaaayyyyyyy too big LOL and drooly

Small dogs live longer, eat less & don't smush you when they climb up in your lap. They have just as much personality as big dogs, are just as likely to be smart and can be humanely kept indoors while you're gone. If you live in town, they're much easier to exercise sufficiently. For most peeps, small dogs really make more sense, but lots of peeps are in love with bigs. We have a large, a medium & a small. DH wants a super-large one now.

Oh, and he doesn't believe in outdoor dogs. So that cuts out an LGD, I guess. I'm no good with training dogs anyway & he positively hates it when I try. Soooo, none of the dogs will come to him or obey him at all and he wants to know why they listen to me (slightly) better.

Because it's always best to listen to the wife... you don't want an angry wife!
(Joking. Though, it is best to avoid making family members mad.)
I, personally, really like Huskies. They're so fluffy and cool -- like wolves.

Fat is not the issue, the wrong kind of carbs is the issue.

Carbs are my biggest issue.


I'm a carbie girl. It shows.

I had:
Autumn, Lily, Maya, Leia, Xena, Kneesaa, Zelda, Willow, Stormy.
Names he hasn't outright vetoed (or hasn't heard yet):
Stella, Inarra, River, Summer, Liberty/Libby

He wants her to have a strong/fierce name. Her grandma (his dog Sophie) is very bossy and energetic.

That's funny. My first thought when I saw her was "Sophia" (means wisdom) but she seems a very small cuddly, sweet dog for such an imposing name. I like it, and I still like Toffee also. She's such a cuddlebug.

Speaking of good food...

Time to make bacon and hash browns.

Her creepiness takes away from her beauty.

Creepy works...

I would not do that. I would make toast, bacon, hash browns and eggs over easy. I would put the eggs on top of the hash browns with the toast and bacon as sides on the same plate.
