The beat goes on…

I tried to come up with a less lame title, but gave you that. I took the Christmas tree down yesterday; there was a time that I saved that work for January 1st or 2nd. We have a small house and it seems like the tree, however charming, is in the way. IĀ appreciated Gary obtaining … Continue reading →

Okay, some would differ. Even we have our limits. I have to say, though, when there are 25 dogs here, each one is entitled to say something to their neighbour, or voice their opinions when someone new arrives, or even when a vehicle uses the driveway next door. The commotion that ensues when one of … Continue reading →

Dogs with balls….

I don’t mean tennis or Christmas balls either. We have quite a population of intact male dogs boarding this Christmas week, and this leads to a certain amount of extra commotion. It could be worse. If we also had a female in heat staying here, those dogs with all the testosterone would never rest or … Continue reading →

No, I didn’t win the lottery. But it feels like I won a lottery, maybe a small one. Yesterday, I applied for the building permit on the little house I planned for McBride. I was worried, as I’m not an engineer or an architect (yet). I’m barely competent in home design, nor have I learned … Continue reading →

I’m so glad for Sunday breakfast! It seems like a rest, an oasis in the week. It’s not that I’ve been busy. You know, from me talking to you, that I have had a bit of a slow period, but this is changing. I wish I had a bigger boarding building; I look at my … Continue reading →

Sometimes as I go about my day, I think of what I’ll write in my blog. All the chatter in my head seems ever so much more interesting or profound than when I actually sit down to compose a blog post. I have had a series of pleasant days in life and in business. A … Continue reading →

The rest of the week will bring change, but it is all fun and grand. Shelly visited just overnight on Sunday … we were doing a vehicle switch to facilitate her move from Calgary to northern Alberta for her most excellent next adventure. Already, the boarding and the grooming has picked up for folks on … Continue reading →

Digging out and getting back to normal…

One of our friends hasn’t much sympathy for those who complain about cold or snow. We too, have said to ourselves and others, “If you don’t like extremes of winter weather, you’re living in the wrong place.” Last week’s heavy snowfall hit most of us by surprise. I thought I had things pretty much put … Continue reading →
