This week has brought us a few new firsts . . . .
- This is the first week of a new diet for me. It's been awhile since I've dieted, but some of the stress of the past year has let some pounds creep back up on me. In an effort to get back to my post-Atkins weight of 6 years ago, I'm trying the LCHF lifestyle. It's low-carb, and very similar to Atkins, but was founded by a Swedish doctor and I think it's easier for me to find food and recipes for it over here in Scandinavia.
- Thursday marked the first time I have driven (myself) in a snowstorm/blizzard. The top speed I got to was 40kmh/25mph. There were sections of the road where I had no clue where I was, despite having driven the route hundreds of times.
- Yesterday was Max's first class for his crate-training course. According to the instructor, he appears to be the most troubled by his crate so we have lots of practice to do before heading back again next Saturday.
- Thursday was Sofia's first riding lesson. She liked it a lot, so we'll be going back again next week. It was cute to see her leading her pony out of the stable.
As you can see, it was snowing quite a bit during the lesson, but Sofia still had fun learning how to make the pony stop, walk and trot.

6 friends had something to say . . .:
I can't believe Sofia was riding in that weather... crazy! I am confused about crate training class. Did I miss something? Did you get another new dog? Is this a class to do something special in the crate? I'm just curious thinking I've obviously missed something because we use crates all the time in rescue, but I've never heard of a class. :) Please enlighten this dog lover... you know I don't want to miss anything.
Oh my goodness seeing that snow during her lesson makes me want to hide under the covers or something! Keep me posted on the diet! I need to do something so badly, but haven't an ounce of desire yet... :-)Glad you made it through the blizzard!
Never driven in a blizzard...never been in a blizzard...don't think I want to either. :) I can't believe S still had lessons in the snow. If that were here in NC, everything would be shut down!!!
Hi! Nice to hear that you've started the lchf-diet. Now we can change recipes! :) Patrik has lost 13 kg thanks to the diet.
I have been using the princess and her hair website, meg finally has enough hair to do something with... it's only been two years getting there... ha! And thanks for your comment on the post. Glad it's not just me who seems to be a perpetual student :)
Okay, I won't tell you Lindsay was riding her horse in the sun today through Campbell Valley Park in South Langley. And I won't tell you she was wearing her spring coat! Sorry......it's just around the corner right??
