Indeed a Day
You can tell it was wet and mucky outside. Dogs are literally a mess. I had to wash and cut all dogs departing tomorrow as I head into Dad's funeral. I will be back late tomorrow night. It's been a day that felt like forever. Jon our son has school Thursday at 8am and I need to get back for Dennis. Nathan will be back sometime over the weekend.
Dennis will be staying home to take care of the dogs. I also cancelled groomings and a water meter install.
Dogs had a treat tonight. As Raven has not been eating well I gave her starter mousse so everyone got a heaping spoonful. They were pleased.
I think I needed extra hugs today so I think I hugged each dog at least 6 times even with the grooming schedule I had. Hugs are important. :0
Tomorrow's update may be late. Not sure when we will get back. I figure maybe at 10-11pm

Oh, Darlah 😢 I am so sad for you. Farley sends you the biggest virtual hug, as does our lovely Clarity. I wish you would take more of a break and spend the time with your family - including your canine family as I know how much comfort they bring you. I wish I weren't so far away as I would do anything to help take some of the burden off you right now. Hugs from me as well. This is such a difficult and emotional time.
Take care Darlah please. Your family needs you. 😢
