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. I 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 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
One of our friends hasn’t much sympathy for those who complain about cold or snow.
