Me and the Relatable Safi

I have literally been working too much so Safi looks like I feel. Truffie and Jeannie still need their baths but it will wait till Monday as I am out of steam. Safi ALREADY had one and this is how she looks today. You so have to love a dog that loves to live and our dogs do!

Here is the gallery.

(Dorothy - Pixie and Leo's mom) showed up today and did our gardening out front - 18 bags of leaves. I was just going to leave it and when she said she was coming we said no but she came anyways. She is an angel and words can't convey how special this was for us and I suppose our neighbours that kept saying - are you going to rake those leaves?Got to think up something I can do for her that is very special!

Nathan is not supposed to rake or shovel or exercise. He moved the chairs outside and had an episode. He is stubborn/stupid. Dennis had planned to get around to the leaves but he's been so off kilter. He was up at 3am checking on the pups and so was I. LOL Sleeping days then suddenly switching to sleeping nights does something to your body. Yo need time to play recovery.

Dogs had fun today. I groomed and groomed.

No Christmas boarding. I suppose so you do what you have to. I am hoping we are covid free next year. That would be the best present for all! Dogs and covid free - the best - I tell you!

There is a food truck thing at Hillcrest mall. I wonder how that works with us being in the red zone again. navigating a whole new world yet again. I so miss puppy families and PEOPLE. The dogs love to see people.

I would have moved those chairs too for Nathan, yikes!
My raking the leaves was for Dennis aswell, as you said he did the backyard, I bet he is sore along with the mixed up sleeps. I can relate.
P.S. I'll make sure I make more blueberry muffins for you, it's a good recipe😋

Dorothy - I owe you in a big way. I am dreaming up a way to surprise you. Your blueberry muffins were great. tasted healthier than Tim Hortons. Thank you, again!!!

Dorothy that was so wonderful. And so are you. Darlah I am sure it is a huge weight off your shoulders and now you have Nathan to worry about. I understand him thought. You think you can do something and then you suffer. Oy!

Ronnie:

I could have moved them too. On a good day when he's doing well, he would let me. He told me AFTER the fact. Now I think he is testing the boundaries. LOL

He looks like he is doing well till he walks up the stairs or moves or lifts something.

He did buy new pjs as he thought he didn't want the backless version if he was stuck with hospital ones and he tends to wear his pjs till they are so worn out - well most would throw them out. He thinks the more worn out the softer they are and he's probably right.

Hoping Peel doesn't stop procedures. Heard they are moving patients to Richmond Hill.
