I started a draft of a blog post two days ago, while I was shedding tears over the horrible school shooting in Florida. The first three paragraphs were lame and rambling, and I shelved this attempt at “chat”. Did a modicum of redecorating in the kennel building today.

This has been a relaxing day, for the most part. Have cared for Smudge, Loki, Baxter and Casey, and the resident gang (Cinder, Smokey, Sam, Taffy the guinea pig, and the chickens).
