Mobile Office

Bear and I went to Arcturus’ house today.

The plan was walks (Bear and Arcturus), lunch (me) and then working from the yard for a bit (me)…giving Arcturus some company, Bear and Arcturus some more time to see each other and Bear some diversity from the woods leash walks that we’ve been doing while resting his leg.

My office is mobile…

The setup.

VERY pleasant working conditions.

Hard to see the lake below with the reflection, but it is there! It was cool, slight breeze, good company and the house wi-fi was strong and fast.

Two beardogs for company. A girl couldn’t ask for much more :)!!

Well, it will be nice when Bear is comfortable joining Arcturus in his yard, but meantime the variety in routine for all of us…it rocks!

A peaceable kingdom

First with Zack and Gus, then with Karl and Gus, Karl, Gus and Bob, Karl and Bob … for something in the neighborhood of 16 years I have started each morning with quiet reflection, some of Oswald Chambers “My Utmost for His Highest”, a cup of coffee and my dear boys.

This morning, for the first time…Bear and Bob – together – shared the time with me.

A peaceable kingdom.

Tempting Fate Day: 2012

As Summer wanes, I look forward to the day I can put away the multiple hoses and sprinklers AND put away the behemoth air conditioner!

I always feel like I am tempting fate…aka the weather gods/goddesses…

But today was the day.

That is the other thing. Although always in the back of my mind, there is suddenly a day when I decide and today was the day.

This morning…I decided…and I could not proceed with my work day until all was restored to what I consider normal.

A cool morning, gave way to a warm afternoon, that cooled quickly in the early evening. I’m counting on a continuance of that :) !!

News and Weather: brought to you by Bob with special commentary from Bear

Bob: Well, against all odds, all the herbs are still alive. And believe me, it is pure luck. The nursery person TOLD her, EMPHATICALLY!!!…that the parsley needed to be watered 4 times a day. A number of times it has just laid down and gasped its next to last breath before she got out here and watered.

Bob, cont’d.: It has been warm and even a bit hot and smoky. Fortunately she remembers to feed me better than she remembers to water the poor herbs.

Today, it got dark between my second breakfast and my elevenses and then it thundered and rained and got cool.

The darn dog is pretty happy about the cool.

Bear: Thank goodness for the air conditioner! And today it cooled off a little. I’m ready for snow!
