Saturday …

Do you ever wish I’d go back to naming my posts something other than the day of the week, over and over, week in and week out? Maybe I should feature the pets’ names, or perhaps some pithy quote I Googled. 🤷‍♀️ Not sure what’s up with me today. I didn’t sleep well, but woke … Continue reading →

Friday …

Do you ever have a day when you’re tearful all day long, for no apparent reason? Or I should ask … for not one particular reason? Thursday was like that. I was sad because of other peoples’ losses and strife … among my friends, of strangers, near and far away. There is such a “weight … Continue reading →

Thursday …

I can’t believe it’s Thursday again. How fast the weeks fly by. Yesterday morning, when I “opened up” for the day, it seemed like the resident cats were all acting needy. I asked, “What is the matter with you guys??” While it is not usual for all five lifers to appear when I open a … Continue reading →

Wednesday …

Goodness, I was glad to get through Tuesday in pretty good shape. Even Gary said I seemed chipper, considering the day’s work. Jake went home in the afternoon. His owners phoned from Kamloops, about five hours away, and I found time to groom the big guy as I’d said I would. Clemina and Gus were … Continue reading →

Tuesday …

Yesterday, I had time to sort of “decompress”, and putter. Is there such a thing as puttering with a sense of urgency? Coco and Sammie went home. Minna came for the day. In the morning, I took devilled eggs to a friend. 😂 I ate some too. See yesterday’s post to see the humour in … Continue reading →

Monday …

Bloody hell. I made devilled eggs for our dinner with guests last night … and forgot them in the fridge 🤦‍♀️ Dinner plans made a bit of a turn when Shelly reported that there were several patients who had tested positive for Covid at the hospital. Bloody hell … they had been 15 months without … Continue reading →

Sunday …

We didn’t make it to the live music after all. I started grooming Finn before the big white dog was due, and I got “the tail and two quadrants” finished. I will try to get done with Finn before he is picked up today. And before dinner party. Then Kodi arrived, and I was truly … Continue reading →

Saturday …

Woke to a gorgeous day. The robins and chickadees are singing in the yard. 💕 I scheduled another giant white dog for grooming today, but am quite certain I’ll be asked to shear him/or right down. This makes the impossible possible. Also, Finn needs his spa day. He is a gentle, sweet soul, but the … Continue reading →

Friday …

This morning, I sprang out of bed feeling like a brand new person! I wouldn’t have imagined it, as I was feeling like a dishrag from about 4 pm on. I slept well (starting early in the chair), so that was key. ☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️ Yesterday was a really tiring day. I groomed this big girl. There … Continue reading →

Thursday …

Well … Wednesday was pretty busy. I told myself that I only had two smallish dogs scheduled. Both dogs are angels to groom, but they are both pretty sturdy models. One is dangerously overweight, and I’m not being mean: don’t kill your dogs with “kindness”! I had also decided to trim Maggie’s talon-like nails, and … Continue reading →
