We went to our Dog Scout picnic yesterday. The girlz had fun and tons of swimming!

June 2nd

Rissa and I attended Cirra's NEH library READer dog celebration. We had some children read to us and I had some cake which was very yummy! Rissa was great - she goes with the flow even at 12.5 years old. She loved on all the kids.

May 2011

Well, several dog events got changed or cancelled this month so not much to "blog" about. Changes in my work schedule cancelled a pet therapy visit and a READer day at Tremont. THEN - I got a nasty cold - so, no school yesterday - had to miss the MDIH volunteer celebration last eve - am not going to the retirement center today... Missed the dog scout walk this month because I worked that day.... I guess the girlz will be ready for our June plans. One final day of school for Timber (6/6) and then the celebration before school ends.

The pics from the yard sale with Jill didn't come out - oh well. We missed Tremont READer dog this week and the Acadia pick up day - worked to many and long into the night hours that I didn't wake up in time to go... oh well. Hopefully tomorrow the girlz will get their first swim of 2011 in!

Dog Scout yard sale today. We hauled and set up yesterday and today was the sale. We were successful but not as much $$ as last year. We think the April date vs. the June date made a difference in the number of people that came. Timber loves the yard sale as I usually bring her home a new baby - this time a Siamese cat! Jillian went to the yard sale as my sales associate and official greeter. I hope to have a picture of that soon.

Timber had REAder dog at the Somesville library. Cute little girls read to her and she wagged and layed on their laps. Got a call from the vet - ALL of Rissa's lab work in range - all levels within normal limits! Yippee!
