Oh boy! Baseball, basketball and hockey all going on at the same time. I don’t watch much hockey but the Blackhawks are my team so the playoffs are interesting. But how about those Boston Celtics. As Tommy Heinsohn said the other night, “the line at the betting window for the Celtics to win the east was very short” and yet they did it and will face the Bulls in the first round of the NBA playoffs.

And of course, watching baseball is fun because I can do a lot of stuff while watching the game and the Cubs are favored to repeat but have a long season to prove they are worthy.

Jezebel, my Olde English Bulldog is growing up fast and I have been spending a lot of time training her. She is going to be a big dog, she is 5 months old and already 45 pounds so training is important. Fortunately, she is a smart girl and has learned a lot. Walking around the neighborhood I have taught her to sit at crosswalks and not pull on the leash. But when she sees we are going to the dog park here in Key West, all bets are off. She pulls with all her strength no matter how many times I make her stop and sit and just cannot wait to run around in the large park by the ocean. There is a dog beach here, too, and we took her there and while she did seem a bit tentative she was swimming around with her life vest on.

I just cannot imagine life without dogs in it.
