Sorry that I haven't written in a couple of days. I've been very busy, playing with Fred and getting plenty of attention. I think that my family has caught on to me. They told me that my probationary period was over and I needed to get with the routine. So I have. I get up early in the morning with Fred and have breakfast. I then go back outside and have some exercise time and then I am in the house because my parents are off to work. But, mommy and daddy come home on their lunch hour to take me and Fred outside for potty and exercise and affection time. I still haven't gotten close to them yet but I am learning. It's hard some days because I want them to give me affection like they do Fred but I am not ready for that yet.

I am really a messed up little girl who needs lots of time.

The good thing is that they haven't given up on me yet. So I must be doing something right.

Nikki.
