The toy "in jail"? It was just so cute, with the upside-down face looking like shifty eyes, if you don't realize that mid-forehead crease is in fact a smile, upside down.
This has been a week without much to "write home about". On Tuesday, Ember went to day care, and I worked out with the trainer.
On Wednesday I tried out some supposedly leak-proof undies. They weren't. They did not make it through a grocery run.
Ember joins the package in the x-pen!
It's has not been much of an eventful week.
On Sunday, Ember and I drove by the school where FGC was playing his basketball game. My son was subbing in as assistant coach, and the regular coach was under the weather, so the regular assistant was being coach. Also helps that the assistant coach is FGC's best buddy's dad, and the two dads get on well. We were a bit late arriving, and I didn't want to disrupt the event, so I did not go in, but it was a good outing for the pup.
MLK day (Monday) there was an "ICE Out" protest downtown at the State Capitol, but Ember and I did not venture out. Tuesday, she went to day care and I worked out with the trainer. Wednesday, we went to get groceries in the morning and took recycles to the bins at the high school in the afternoon. Just normal human errands, but my girlie likes to come along.
Thursday, she had day care again, and I did my usual house cleaning thing. And laundry.
When I went to pick Ember up at daycare, there was the cutest little terrier mix in for a health check. Older dog. According to the gent holding her leash, Piper was about to be up for adoption, as she had lost her family. She was so gentle, and loving, and pretty and soft. I let Ember touch noses and sniff with her as we were leaving, but I tell you, my heart wanted to scoop her up and bring her home. I did not do so, and probably have missed my opportunity to do so, because she's a real cutie, and I hope she finds a new fur-ever home quickly.
Imagine the photo of Ember above with a little white Westie mix about 1/4 her size...
Friday morning, I woke to temperatures below zero, Fahrenheit. Brrrr! But Ember and I went through our usual morning routine for the most part. It was Simparica Trio day for Ember. I had just done the flea treatment for Prisoner earlier in the week. We are hunkered down for the next couple of days, due to the cold weather!
We are having to reset when we get the cousins together for what was supposed to be Saturday's luncheon. Since I've already got the reservation made, we're swapping out to have DIL's mom come instead of my niece. No fun going out for ethnic food when your smell and taste are gone, per the niece, who just got home from a trip to find she had caught Covid-19, as had her roommate. "Le Sigh!"
Life is good. Keep on Sparking!
