Have been attempting to coordinate the demolition of the little house. When I was getting some forms at our Village Office today, the clerk asked, “such-and-such address?”, to which I replied, “Good heavens NO! Not that one, we aren’t tearing THAT one down!”. Of course there was no real need to panic… my friend was … Continue reading

Pleasant Saturday …
It has been another good, good day. We only have a few boarders, and although I appreciated the busy days of summer, I am enjoying a “breather”, too. During the morning, a couple of dogs went home, and then several more came. I wasn’t ready with my camera for the comings and goings. After Isla, … Continue reading
Goodnight, just goodnight…
I’ve been nodding off all evening. We went to the Chinese Smorg tonight in town, joining friends and as always, eating plenty. The conversation was lively and made for a good time. I didn’t work very hard today, but some days just have to be “putting and taking”, as my stepmom used to say. That … Continue reading
An interesting day…
That sounds more profound than what it was. I was sad to have Shelly leave, but glad to know she is back in Calgary safely. Snowy came for her beauty treatment. There might be groomers who do a more “even” job of shortening a dog’s coat, but I enjoy the work and I adore this … Continue reading
A close call…
In the grand scheme of things, this is a comical incident, but I’ll tell you what made MY morning interesting! As Gary left for work this morning, I started a batch of bread. I set up the yeast, sugar and warm water, and forgot all about it for awhile while I took care of Odie, … Continue reading
Sweet little doggies…
Oh, my goodness, I have enjoyed my work day. The five small dogs who came for grooming were almost like human children, and they all seem to adore me. Turbo (aka ‘Birdie’) and Ginger are both camera shy. They are here regularly; Ginger seems not to mind the grooming process, and Turbo just tolerates her … Continue reading
A most pleasant Sunday…
It has just been a great day all around; hope it has also been that way for you. After a most enjoyable brunch in town with friends, we came home to putter around on this gorgeous sunny day. I checked on the boarding dogs and did a few things for their happiness and comfort, then … Continue reading
Short report…
It’s after 11 pm. and I haven’t checked in with you, my friends. Hope your day was pleasant, as was mine. I groomed two little dogs: I forgot to take an “after” picture of Scruffy this time, but believe me, he looked like a different dog. He also acted jolly and confident, like he believed … Continue reading
More relaxing days …
So why am I not relaxed? I might have had too much caffeine this afternoon. After three out of five errands this afternoon, I stopped at Morels to check for a Facebook Message on my iPad, using their WiFi. I could see on my iPhone that there WAS a message, but because of an … Continue reading
No pithy title…
I’ve thought about you often today, and although I thought of a couple of catchy starts to a new Post to blog, I forget them now. Any wittiness or pithiness now escapes me. I feel like I need a short vacation. Even a day off would be swell. I have always been one to acknowledge … Continue reading
