You might say that my own blog “saved” me. That’s hyperbole, of course, but this morning I could not decide whether this was Wednesday or Thursday. Then I remembered that I called yesterday a “not very humpy hump day” and entitled it “Wednesday…” So there you go. There I go. Yesterday was so pleasant, weather … Continue reading

Wednesday …
There’s nothing too “humpy” about this “Hump Day”. Yes, it’s the middle of the week, but being self-employed, and during these strange times of COVID-19 threat, the days simply swim together. On the other hand, I feel that I should have accomplished more in the past six weeks. Since my 65th birthday, which was shortly … Continue reading
“Back In The Saddle Again” 🎶🎵🎶 …
Today I groomed these two little cuties while they boarded for the day. Their owners were so bashful about the pups being “overdue”, but they were not that bad at all. This is considering that Hannie and Ryza were just due for a spring haircut and shampoo when I closed the shop for six weeks. … Continue reading
Happy Birthday, Kim!
Today is Kim’s birthday. Yes, I had three babies in four years plus a day, awhile ago. Especially at this time of relative isolation plus geographical distance, I miss these little ones so much! “My” daughters, Gary’s daughter Beth, and two granddaughters Linden and Juno. And the spouses … we love ’em also. Shelly and … Continue reading
Happy Birthday, Shelly!
Today is our Shelly’s birthday. “My” three daughters and Linden had a Zoom conference last evening, so my soul is more satisfied. I feel we should do this video conferencing more often, and there are several easy apps for that. Even so, we are all busy and getting together in any way is more easily … Continue reading
Sunday …
It only occurred to me what day it was when Gary phoned his mom. It’s a Sunday 8:25 thing. All is well, and later today, we will be thrilled to have a Zoom visit with Kim and perhaps her sisters. Now “Zoom” has become a household word in the realm of video conferencing, and I … Continue reading
Saturday …
Gary was working hard in the yard when I decided to clean the bathroom fan cover. I had attempted several times to brush dust from the plastic “hood”, and I had tried to pop it off the fan mechanism without success. Was I going to need to cut or unscrew wires, ideally without electrocution? What … Continue reading
Everything’s connected …
More than ever, in this time of COVID-19, we see how the whole world and everything in it is connected. We can’t know all of it, but I keep noticing and learning of networks, connections, and supply chains that didn’t occur to me before now. Susannah tried to warn me. And I have only the … Continue reading
Friday again so soon …
I’ve said it before that I don’t know how Friday or the weekend sneaks up on me. It doesn’t matter anyway. I’m starting to get antsy about my grooming waiting list. People have been understanding and polite while that facet of my business is closed, but I do worry about the pets’ comfort. As if … Continue reading
Thursday …
Today was a two-car-rides-and-a-walk kind of a day for Mica. Of course, I was along for the rides and walk. In the photo she looks sad, but that is actually her joyful look! Dinner was from “Sue and Me Eatery”, open for take out/delivery. Gary and I chose our standby meal, “KFC”, which in McBride … Continue reading
