I guess this blog application is going to work with Firefox, yay.
I don’t know how to start, it has been so long. Sorry to all who have checked while I wasn’t keeping up. And thanks, also.
Since I last posted, I had a few busy weeks, and now business has slowed. The garden centre is closed for the winter, although I still have a lot of planting to do, in order to save nursery stock for the spring. I do not have as much “left over” this autumn, and the digging in the vegetable garden is relatively easy digging.
For Canadian Thanksgiving, we have a wonderful cross-section of doggy society as guests. We have Smudge, Winston, Axle, Marley and Sheila, Missy, Beowulf and Chester, Cinder and Mouse. I have had a couple of weeks in which I didn’t have too many dogs or cats to groom, but I feel I need that rest.
For many months I had been trying to save money in order to replace my truck, which still has a lot of life left in it. There is a local business which finds and restores recent model trucks with body damage, and I put my name in last year for them to look for a truck for me. We don’t really get a colour choice… just to take a truck when it’s ready or keep waiting. The result was this, my “new” truck which actually has 10,000 miles on it:
When Gary took me to the dealer to get my truck, we saw that our friends had a used tractor for sale, so I bought that for Gary, too:
Here is our dog Lady, resting in the usual way, in her chair:
… and that’s all the blogging I have time for at the moment. I’m trying to get ready to go to Calgary to see Myrtle, my stepmother, and my darling daughters; a quick trip for which I’m wildly excited.
Love ~ Ann
