SpringTime!

It's astonishing that nine l-o-n-g months have passed since my last blog post and if I'm honest, there were moments when I doubted I would ever add another. BUT, I'm here, I'm able, I'm thrilled and ever so grateful to post this update. So let's get to it!

Spring Has Sprung!

It boggles the mind (well, at least it boggles mine) that another month of staying at home, social distancing, obsessive hand washing and donning face masks to go to the grocery store have passed since my last blog post. 

In some ways those four weeks feel like an eternity, in others they passed as quickly as a blink of an eye at hyper speed. Yet, it's the subtle day-to-day changes that have made the biggest impact upon me this year and pandemic aside, the transition from spring to not-quite-summer has been spectacular. 

10 Weeks into the "New Normal"

The past few months have been a game changer and like everyone else we've been staying at home, social distancing, obsessive hand washing and donning homemade face masks to go to the grocery store. 

5-Day Housesit With Our REAL Grand-Fur Babies!

Of the many housesits we’ve completed during the past ten years the one we just completed today is extra special for a number of reasons. One, it's the first sit we’ve done for our daughter and son-in-law who live in Massachusetts and two, we spent the past five days with our real grand fur babies, Doug and Walter!
