I think being here today is a bit of a surprise but I’ve been thinking about this space lately, and how when I’m trying to write and it’s hard, coming here was always easier. A jumping off place. So here I am.
I also have a story to write about First off, since I last wrote, we got a second dog. We rescued Loki last October and he’ll be a year at the end of this month. He’s hilarious and is the perfect goof to Bingo serious nature.
Because Bingo is almost thirteen (this weekend) and Loki is crazy, we decided no big trips this summer. So last weekend Rory and I (who is recently graduated and will be going to UW this fall!) went to Toronto. We had the perfect trip, train, hotel, books, Shake Shack, swimming, Centre Island, Aunt Bonnie! The only downside was when Scott had to tell us that Loki was at the animal hospital because he was barely able to breath.
For a few weeks Loki had been on medication for Kennel Cough, which didn’t work because he had pneumonia, still does but is much better. I could go on about how scary is was, knowing Loki was hooked up to an IV and kept overnight. But the little’s guys home and on antibiotics and pain killers to try to keep him a little sleepy but that doesn’t really work. Our days are spent trying to keep him calm and from coughing.
I’m sitting in my office that now has a door that I got for my birthday. During covid, we put the old door somewhere else to make an office for Scott who was teaching at home. I didn’t really need a door before but now with a puppy, it definitely helps to have one.
So I’m working on my book, a novel told in stories that was my final project or the UofT writing program I finished this winter. I also have some exciting news to share very soon!
