Cold Enough For A Fire

Just one of those days when I couldn't get warm.  Started off the morning with a bowl of oatmeal topped with walnuts and raisins.

I threw in a load of wash and spent some time with Little Wonder.  Every morning he sacks out on my lap and eats carrots.

Bridge at 1.  Had crappy cards and came in dead last again.

On my way home I stopped for an appointment with Big Bertha (Chiro).

I had to replace the tulips on our kitchen table and we have moved from yellow to red.

I did not want to make dinner so we cleaned out the frig.

It's a good thing Gary had a fire going.

LW sure looks different here, compared to his photo from this morning.  Next week he goes to the groomer and it will be the last time with her as she is going back to school for nursing.  I'm not too excited about finding a new person to take care of this in the future.

Night all.

 

A Buddy Fix

My routine was different this morning without Sidney.  Very quiet and slow moving.  Even tho it was spritzing outside and the temperature got up to about 47, I decided to load up the last bundles of hay I saved for Buddy and drive them over.

Of course Little Wonder wanted to join me....but they have two dogs and I did not think it was a good idea (in case they were outside).

Whenever I go there, I pass this little falls in Clarendon.  It's a beauty and all the rain has kept it moving.

As soon as Cotton and Buddy saw me, they came up to the fence.

First I moved the hay in, then did some picking and finally got more fuzz off Buddy.  They were very happy with the apples and carrots I brought.  They also got some extra hay from one of the bundles that broke.  A nice treat for them.

Got home around two and other than doing a load of wash, was not too productive.

I had some leftover sauce and ended up making an easy dinner.

Night all.

PS

I really appreciate all the caring comments that were made regarding the loss of Sidney.

Little Wonder's post on FB received over 1400 views and almost 100 comments.  So many people know what it's like to lose your best buddy.

 

Sleep Tight Sidney.....

It was a very emotional morning....spending time with Sidney before taking him to the animal hospital to be put down.  Gary went with me and it was very peaceful.  The vet agreed that it was time.  We had him for 16 years and he had a very good life.

Before he was placed next to Seymour, I made sure Little Wonder was able to see and touch him so he would understand.  They were a sweet little duo and Sidney will be missed by all of us.

At 1 LW and I went out to the Studio for some music.

Only John was able to join me and he brought a new song.

Late afternoon I made a quick trip to Wegmans for a few things.

We were in a pizza mood.

Not an easy day....

Night all.

The Studio

This was brush pick up day and they started at our house early in the morning.

Pardon all the videos.....I was into music today.

Did a load of wash, then Little Wonder and I went out to the Studio to get things set up for music tomorrow.  So happy that it is warm enough to start being out there.

We have a nice sound system and this is my favorite CD when I'm working.

Gary had a morning meeting and found me out there when he got home.

It was warm enough for LW to be panting....around 68 degrees.

I was finished around noon.  So many flowers are still in bloom there.

A little after three I went for Trike ride #7.  About 6 miles today.

Finding music motivates me to get out there.

I picked up a couple of terra cotta pots along the way.  They are so expensive I thought what the heck!  Better to Skoog Farm than the dump.

Perfect weather again.  Gary did more putzing around in the raised beds.

Dinner was a replay.  Vegetarian two nights in a row.

Night all.
