My Busy Day

This morning, I took Cocoa (a doggie client) to the doggie park at Cleary Lake, a 28-acre off-leash area. If you have dogs and you haven't been there, it's wonderful! The dogs run around like crazy and play while you can take a leisurely stroll around the many paths. It was a cold walk this morning, but a nice way to wake up and get some fresh air. Plus, I get paid to do it!

Now I'm heading off to see Riley & Kirby, two long-haired Dachshunds. Then it's off to see if I can fit in a make-up session for Gracie's puppy obedience class we missed last weekend. Then Donald and I go pick up Nicholas as Kindergarten and all head up to Edina for Donald's post-surgery check-up with Dr. Saylor. Donald will get his staples out and I'm hoping it will help him feel much, much better! After the doctor appointment, we're off to QCumbers to eat 'til we drop. If you've never been to QCumbers, I highly recommend that as well (but you can't take your dogs). It's very similar to a place we used to frequent in Florida and Georgia called Sweet Tomatoes. Sweet Tomatoes was even nicer, but QCumbers will do...

Tomorrow is not quite as busy, and maybe I'll work on finishing "Ahab's Wife" the longest book I've ever read. Really, I've had to renew my library copy two times because it is long...but good. I just can't wait to get to the end!

I hope everyone takes a moment to enjoy their families, their friends, and their freedom! Next week is Thanksgiving and we have much to be thankful for.
