New Challenges

I've always loved going for rides, but I'm finding the challenge of getting in and out of the car a bit much lately. Mom and Dad bought me a ramp over a year ago, but it was too short for the hatchback, and too wide for the back-seat doors. So, Dad is looking for a longer one today - after yesterday's ride, when I refused to get out of the back seat until he and Mom put some cement blocks down on the ground so I could make it in two steps instead of one big jump.

I think most of the problem is my arthritis, but the new kitchen floor hasn't been helping. It's like an ice rink! Slippery as all get out, and I've fallen on it more than once. Mom and Dad have been bringing my treats into the living room to help me avoid the floor, thankfully! The carpeting is old and ugly, but I can stay upright! =)

Anyway, life is full of new challenges, but as usual, I'm taking them head-on with a smile! Now, where was I? Oh yeah - napping. Zzzzzzzz....
