Memorable Day

Here is the gallery.

Rebel was not sore after her shots and she was her usual fun self. I have to say the last 2 additions to our home, Rebel and Nami have been a dream. They are amazing as they are fun and so enjoyable the way they embrace life. I feel so lucky.

As this was such a momentous day for the United States and the world, I felt this photo was appropriate. This was Marco with his dad. I had to laugh. Today I breathe after 4 years of insanity. As an American/Canadian, I am so glad a change occured down south. Just the lack of lies will be refreshing. Enough of that...

The dogs had an amazing amount of fun today. It was play, play, play!

Tenshi arrives tomorrow till Saturday. How fun is that. It is way fun to me.

Nathan has his cardio handbook now, a call from his surgeon as to when to stop his meds etc. It is a go for Friday. We are told that they are expediting people out of the hospital in 4 days after surgery (half the time), if the patient is up to it due to covid. He must be able to do stairs for a departure. Oh boy means more care on my shoulders but will be great to have him out of hospital. I guess I will be cooking a lot. :-) I hope he pulls it off. I guess it means Saturday we will set up the guestroom for him for all his needs.

Tomorrow is very busy. I have grooming all day. Packing for Nathan, laundry and get his pre-op papers into the van as he will seriously forget them.

Nathan is trying to spend all his waking moments with me and the dogs. Me, he will see. The dogs he won't unless I hold them for them to say hello as they can't jump on him. That will be tough on him. Me bouncing him off the bed due to being restless - he won't miss. LOL

Nathan will rest better at home, it'll be much quieter even with all the dogs. Good sleeps will go a long way towards his recovery.
Seems everything is a go👍

Nothing like being home sooner than planned, after surgery, if up to it. We wish Nathan the very best tomorrow. He will be in our thoughts all day, all of you will be.

Well didn't sleep much. Grooming a ton today so blogs may be short. If i can get through today with no cancellation, it will be great. Lots to do - perhaps a good thing. Thanks all!
