This is a picture of Big Spike--in Greg's pajama pants. You can just see his little tail poking out the back. Poor Big Spike got totally disoriented when Greg put his pj pants over his head. He was running around on the bed, and it was so funny! He finally found his way out. He is a silly pup. Without a job, I've been able to spend some quality time with the animal children. But, I'm kind of back on a regular schedule now that I am volunteering for my friend Linda at the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency (you may remember that she was laid off in 2008, but then when the governor was impeached and arrested, Linda got her job back). I've been having a great time working with her three days each week, and this week I'm going to start volunteering for my friend Susan, the curator at the Lincoln Home, one day a week. So I'll still be busy and learning good museum skills. I also get to see and do a lot of cool things, like help Linda pack up all of the artifacts at Frank Lloyd Wright's Dana-Thomas House, which is going to be closed for some repairs. It's pretty neat to touch (with white gloves on, of course) something that Frank Lloyd Wright actually made. I have also found a new favorite way to work out during the winter: EA Sports Active 2 for the Nintendo Wii. It is so fun! I have my own personal trainer, named Devon (but I named him Mario--since eating at Mario's on New Year's Eve, I name everyone Mario), and I can do a lot of great workouts, including mountain biking, basketball, and boxing, right in the living room. So life is good.
