Random Chatter About Today
Today was good. Indy continued on her road to recovery, so the weight on my shoulders from yesterday, eased. It was kind of a rough night, and I will probably be spending a second night downstairs, but, really, things are MUCH better. Still, rough night equals not enough sleep, which is just no fun. Watson’s playdate got canceled, but I was able to get somebody else to bring a good natured Golden... read more

Blah Blah Blah Weather, Blah Blah Blah Dogs
I’m afraid winter is over. I really dislike spring here, at least early spring. I am expecting this one to be particularly unpleasant, since we had record breaking snowfall this winter.

Hat and Shit – because what is a post from me without some mention of shit?
Today I bought a hat for $4.99 at the grocery store. No sales tax on clothing in Minnesota. It looks dumb, but my ears are warmer.

Today, I had no gloves on the walk. At least I had a... read more
