Wow, things have been quiet here on the blog for a while, but I’m going to try to change that up a bit.
I have been settling into being the only human in the apartment, which is kind of weird, but also fun. Nanook keeps me company, and even if he doesn’t like a lot of other people, he loves me! He is getting big and will be going in for his one year check up sometime next month. I’m excited to see how much he weighs and see what the vet says about when I can take him hiking. We’ve been doing shorter walks around the neighborhood, keeping to mostly flat, paved ground. This morning we went 4.2 miles, the longest he has gone, and he did awesome!
Working two jobs has kept me pretty busy. I’m working 40 hours a week at my office job (it used to be 32 hours per week), plus coaching 5 to 8 hours per week at CrossFit Huachuca. I love both jobs, which is good since they keep me busy! Nanook loves going to the office job with me, and is one of the best office dogs ever. He still doesn’t bark, and he is shy, so if people come in he normally hides under my desk. There are a few people he will come out and see, it just takes time! Everyone that stops by regularly knows he is there though, and always ask how he is doing.
That is just a quick overview of the life of the Arizona Merrymon right now, I’ll be trying to do some more updates, as this fall looks like a lot of fun activities to share, including CrossFit competitions, hiking, and more!
