Little One’s Adventures // 5 Annoying Things About Humans

Little One’s Adventures // 5 Annoying Things About Humans

Hello, everyone! Little One on the blog today! What’s shakin’?

Have you ever noticed how annoying humans can be? Don’t get me wrong; I love them! I’d rather be with my human than with other dogs, but they really can be an obnoxious species. Today I wanted to talk about five really annoying habits that human have.

THEY’RE STINGY WITH TUMMY RUBS.

I roll over, I get a belly rub, right? You’d think that’s how it works, but humans are strange creatures and it regularly happens that I roll over and my belly is not rubbed. What is up with that? Do they think I’ll roll over for just anyone? The humans in my life call it “delayed gratification.” What even is that? It’s not a real thing! Now, belly rubs… those are real!

THEY’RE WHIMPS

What’s cold weather perfect for? Rolling around in the snow! Do my humans roll around with me? Nope, they do not! What’s even worse is that it takes them forever to go outside when I need to. Really? What’s with all that stuff they put on. Isn’t it a little bit overkill? I don’t need to put all of that to go outside for a quick run through the cold.

THEY HAVE AN OBSESSION WITH DUNKING THEMSELVES & OTHERS IN WATER

Every couple of months without fail my writer insists on dunking me in water and rubbing smelly stuff all over me. She tells me she’s giving me a bath and making me clean, but I happen to think that I’m perfectly grimy and smell absolutely wonderful before she does this. Just because she likes to stand under water every night, doesn’t mean I’ll enjoy the canine equivalent.

THEY TELL ME TO STOP BARKING

Don’t they realize that barking is one of my favorite activities and it’s a natural instinct in certain situations? It’s like they don’t care when there’s a bird flying over my yard. Oh well… I’ll just keep sneaking in barks here and there.

THEY LIMIT MY FOOD & EAT THROUGHOUT THE DAY

This is the most annoying thing of all. They feed me twice a day, but they eat throughout the day. If it’s not good for me to eat that much, why is it okay for them to do it? It’s not fair!

So, there you go. Five annoying things about humans. Like I said, I love them. They’re my family. But that doesn’t mean that they don’t annoy me from time to time.

What are some things about humans that annoy you?

Well, I guess that’s it for me today. Until next time, keep those tails waggin’!

Hello, friends! šŸ‘‹šŸ¼ Swipe through for a few g Hello, friends! šŸ‘‹šŸ¼ Swipe through for a few glimpses from January. As 2022 came to an end I had this feeling that I was preparing to hibernate and I guess, in a way, I have. I’ve been slowly easing into the new year, focused on getting back into a few routines after Iceland and the holidays. And it’s been a great month. I can’t believe it’s almost over. What have your favorite moments of January been?
2022. Looking back on this year it was the year of 2022. Looking back on this year it was the year of so many dreams experiences. Whales. Cape Cod/Nantucket. Iceland. I saw musicals that have I’ve been dreaming of with Moulin Rouge, Wicked, and Six. 

It wasn’t without its stresses and rough moments but I’m grateful for the good that can be found, even when it’s hard.
Let’s journey back to November for the second we Let’s journey back to November for the second weekly dam walk of the month. My dad joined me for this one and we made it somewhat fast because it was a chilly day. ā€œThe water looks cold,ā€ I said when we back to the car.

Between Iceland and the below zero, windy, and snowy weather we had last week (which came with requests from my parents not to go) it’s been a few weeks since I’ve been to the dam and I miss it!
Years ago I celebrated Christmas and New Years in Years ago I celebrated Christmas and New Years in Vienna and it still lives in my memory today as such a special time. I know December in Reykjavik will be the same—and not just because I came home with a little over $100 worth of ornaments of all 13 Yule Lads AND their mom AND the Christmas cat. (There was a little bit of miscommunication between my mom and me on that shopping trip. šŸ˜‚)

It might have been cold (and when that wind hits you don’t want to be outside or by the harbour…I speak from windswept, breath-stolen experience and will forever be grateful for the library we eventually found respite in) and we only saw the sun a few hours each day, but seeing this already charming city decked out in Christmas lights with a skating rink and the prettiest tree secured it’s place in my heart.

Reykjavik, I hope to see you again one day. Soon. Probably not in December, but I’m glad I got to see you in December once.
Last year my niece and I visited New York at Chris Last year my niece and I visited New York at Christmastime and it was fun to see the city decked out in lights. I can also now say that I’ve seen the Rockefeller Christmas Tree and skating rink and the Saks Christmas lights, but I’ve also seen the crowds they draw.

It was completely different in Reykjavik this year. You actually had a chance to skate on the ice rink if you wanted (and I never did the conversation, but I think it’s cheaper) and you could actually walk up to the Christmas tree. Two very different Christmas in the city experiences.
Iceland, Day 2, Part 2. We ended the Golden Circle Iceland, Day 2, Part 2. We ended the Golden Circle tour with a stop at Thingvellir National Park. My fingers froze as I took these photos but it was worth it to capture this view. šŸ˜ PS - the last photo is from a lake we stopped at on our way from Geysir to Thingvellir.
Iceland, Day 2, Part 1. We went on a rather unvent Iceland, Day 2, Part 1. We went on a rather unventful Northern Lights tour the night before and slipped in a few hours of sleep before meeting our bus for the Golden Circle tour. Our tour guide was @busdriver_annie and she was amazing! Pictured: Faxi (the small waterfall) Gullfoss (the big waterfall), a wool market where we also saw some animals, and Geysir (the hot springs area). Geysir is actually the most famous geyser in the world but it doesn’t erupt anymore. However, Strokkur erupts every 5 - 10 minutes. I’ll share more photos from the tour soon!
Iceland, Day 1. We landed bright and early at 6:30 Iceland, Day 1. We landed bright and early at 6:30 am, dropped off our bags at the hotel, and went exploring. We saw HallgrĆ­mskirkja, the amazing view from the bell tower, the rainbow street, and walked down Laugavegur. Swipe to the end to see the view from our apartment!
