We All Struggle

The same effort it takes for me to find a tiny piece of carrot accidentally dropped on the floor, takes mom to find a minute to blog. I want to apologize for not commenting on your blogs, but as of today:

- we don't have internet at home,
- we have internet in the office but we also have a camera watching us so we can't use it during work hours,
- mom is taking an online course. ONLINE meaning she has to do it during her lunch hour from work. She can read assignments and messages from the phone but she needs a real computer with internet access to write and post her homework. And she is required to comment on her classmates' homework.
- during mom's lunch time it appears that nobody else in the office notices that she is supposed to do whatever she wants except work. She gets furious sometimes because she really needs to concentrate for this online class but at the same time she runs the office and that fact is keeping her from loosing her job. And these are tough times...
- mom tries to stay late everyday to use more internet time after work but: #1 daddy wants her to come home early because he misses her too much, #2 the boss' son coincidentally comes to her office everyday after mom's work hours and asks her nicely what she is doing. Mom doesn't know what he means with that but he always walks to actually see what she is doing online so she suspects it bothers them. For that reason she only stays for half an hour or so.
- we love you and we are still reading all of your posts!

Have a nice week, friends!

Don't worry about it, sweetie. You'll post when you can. We still love you. And I know what you mean about worrying that they'll fire you for too much surfing. I think we all suffer from those paranoias. You know? But they'd have to fire everyone in building since everyone does it!

Oh Coco, your poor momma is so busy! Tell her not to worry about commenting and stuff! We know you are out there reading!

I read the bad news that your parents turned down the pugpartment. Maybe they could just build you a little condominuim out in the backyard, so you're on your own but still close to home!

Sandra don't worry about commenting or posting, we know you are busy!

Is the boss worried that maybe you are upgrading your self for a new job on their computers? They may think that and that could be why they are hanging around.

Poor Coco, that is so mean of your parents to say no to you. I think you are old enough to move out and have a puggy-pad of your own!

Oh Coco, I was so sad to see you looking for that carrot. And I am sending some extra hugs to your mom right now too - it sounds like she is having a rough time.
I wonder if there is an internet cafe nearby that your mom could work from to do her course work. Do you have a laptop? Maybe there are some coffee shops that have free wireless internet?
I hope things work out soon.

Hi Sandra and Coco,
I just wanted to introduce myself and say that my mommie and I just read your first few blogs and were truly touched by the sad, but happy story of you and Coco. We like your blog and will continue to read. Ohh and so excited to meet another Florida pug blogger!

Hi Coco! Tell your mom not to worry about us. We know that she reads our bloggies and we are grateful. Your mom has to keep her job so that she can buy you food.

I know you're out there even if I can't see you.

Stubby xoxo

Aaaaaaaaaaaawwwww - your poor mom. I don't know how anyone can live without internet access! You just need to go to work with her, and bite anyone who comes near her desk!

Awww, there just isn't enough time in the day! Our Mom's been busy lately too. Don't worry. We know everyone is still reading even when they are not commenting. Good luck with the online class.
