I am tired. I teach first grade. I get up early. I moved in my house when Charlie was born. My house is a lot of work to maintain. I painted my house purple. I go to church at the weekends. I love Maine. I cannot whistle. I have a doodle. My 3 year old's name is Charlie. I walk as much as I can with the dog and Charlie. I enjoy being outside as much as possible.
I live in an apartment in Maine. I have 4 animals.  My dog is a newfoundland. I don't walk my dog as much as I should. I cannot whistle. I enjoy fishing. I like the ocean and being outside. I have been hiking on weekends.
I signed up for a church bake sale this week and Charlie has been helping me with all the cupcakes and cookies. I bet that has been very fun and extremely messy Yah I am exhausted, add that to the heavy workload of a first grade teacher, it's been a whirlwind of a week! Oh, but I bet being a teacher and having experience with kids a lot has made it much easier on you. I would not know where to even begin with baking, especially with small kids. I just buy cookies for bake sales haha. What does Charlie do to help? He helps to mix the ingredients, lick the bowls, and the clean up. Such as good kid. How is your dog doing? He's doing good. I have made it a point to walk him twice a day since we last spoke. He seems to really love that. I just have to get myself to keep doing it.   That's lovely, do you take him with you when you go hiking as well? Oh yeah. That is usually the only time I ever really take him on walks. He loves it because when I am hiking, if there are not a lot of other people around, he can run free and explore more than he can in the city park That makese sense, um I wonder if he can swim, since you love the ocean. Yes. He can also swim. I have to keep him leashed at the ocean though. I used to have two dogs. His brother Edgar was a very rambunctious pup and went too far out and got caught in an undertow. So I am scared to let him free out there. Oh no, that's terrible, sorry to hear. Well maybe we can take our pups out for walks together sometime. My doodle is a bunch of energy. I think that my boy would love to have a friend to walk with, and having a kid around might be good for him. He came from a large family with a bunch of kids!
