No reason to dread the “start of the work week” at this time of relative isolation and extremely slow business. I do have a little paying work today. At the Pet Hostel we have only Zeus and his tiny pomeranian sidekicks for now. Tonight, we are visited by three other small dogs for a couple … Continue reading
Yesterday, I got two more runs in the kennel building painted. I know from experience that the epoxy takes a long, long time to dry, so I need to keep Smokey and Sam off it. Obviously, I suppose, I can keep dogs or human clients from walking on it. This morning, Smokey appeared, and had … Continue reading
If I don’t concentrate, the days of the week swim together. I will declare that Black Friday passed by, and I didn’t buy anything except $5 worth of somethings at the local thrift store. Although we in Canada are “wooed” (courted, targeted) by online companies almost as much as Americans are, I was strong! I’ve … Continue reading
Winter in northern Canada can always bring surprises, that’s one thing we can count on. There was snowfall in the night, but it is so wet and heavy that we have deep slush everywhere. The highway is treacherous. Gary has postponed his trip for work, and my clients can’t get out of their long rural … Continue reading
This has been on my mind all day. Last night someone in Facebook compared what she believes is a plot by all governments to grab money and power by manipulation and suppression… to the residential school travesty. It’s hard to explain, but her opening remark was the question, “If the government wanted you to hand … Continue reading
Yes, once in awhile I’ll post twice in one day. Surely this makes up for the periods of time that I neglected to post even weekly. I had just a little work this morning, a “miki” dog (that’s a hybrid) named Buffy. I adore this little mite and am very fond of her people. This … Continue reading
Last night a food truck delivered while I was in the hot tub. I bolted out, (out of view at that point) forgetting that I could have called Gary. Though I was well covered with a large towel, it was a bit embarrassing. Could have been worse. Poor young man. We have been getting occasional … Continue reading
Did you know that sometimes I start tomorrow’s post today? I think that’s why sometimes the dates appear “wrong”. But at least I’m writing to you … and thank you so much for being here to read. 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 So I’m lying on the couch, which is my usual position at 7 pm.. It’s Tuesday night. … Continue reading
Lazy-ish day has started. We have almost killed the pot of coffee and have finished breakfast too. I only have a little work planned for the day, which is to bathe a coonhound.. Zeus, Duke, and Leigh are already cared for. I love all three of these boarders. Still tugs at my heart to board … Continue reading
Gary had asked what I wanted for Christmas. It’s a spouse’s prerogative to query, but I’m usually stuck for an answer. This year, I have my dear husband “covered” as far as his gift from the girls and me. Then I had to come up with a bright and shiny idea for myself. We had … Continue reading
