Snow days …

Posted on December 30, 2018 by Ann Schwartz • 1 Comment

We have had some days of heavy snow since I last posted. Gary has been steadily occupied with the work of digging and shovelling, and ploughing the driveway and parking spaces with the tractor. I have done only a modicum of this kind of work and feel guilty. I tell my husband that when he … Continue reading →

Title? no title …

Posted on February 17, 2018 by Ann Schwartz • 1 Comment

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. Years ago, I added a few shelves … Continue reading →

This ‘n’ that …

Feel like I’m spinning my wheels or treading water lately. The less I do, the less I want to do. I guess this could still be attributed to “winter doldrums”. We have had some beautiful days in this wonderful Valley. Seems lucky that the area is so scenic, because we have had some very bitter … Continue reading →

Blanket of snow …

Got out from under the blankets to find this. It looks like an old sepia photo, but everything really is “socked in”; one can’t even see the mountains.  I only had one small dog to groom today, and there are just three boarders at the Pet Hostel. The “slow” times do not worry me any … Continue reading →

Couched in luxury ….

Posted on October 9, 2017 by Ann Schwartz • Leave a comment

The new “dog couch” has been well received already! Chester, then Jazzmin and Dexter, have enjoyed several days of extra comfort.   This morning was the first time that Smokey discovered this dog run vacant. I also find the couch comfortable and share it with pets for coffee breaks or power naps. It’s a matter … Continue reading →

Off the grid…

Posted on November 30, 2014 by Ann Schwartz • Leave a comment

We didn’t want to be, but we were “off the grid”, without Hydro power, for 28 hours. It was uncomfortable in some ways, inconvenient too, but did not create for us the kind of hardship it did for many others. Overnight on Wednesday, we had about a foot of snow. Gary and Rob were skiing … Continue reading →

Feeling better…

Posted on March 6, 2014 by Ann Schwartz • Leave a comment

It seemed logical to follow up with a blog post in a more positive tone. I did just dry my tears over the stupid truck. It won’t start on its own, so over the course of a couple of days, I steeled my courage to actually go FIND the battery charger, realize that I am … Continue reading →
