last days of fall...

Yesterday and the day before were beautiful! A friend of mine has a farm with 80ish acres of bush on it, so I have been taking the dogs out for walks on the trails. I've been out there quite a bit lately, just wandering around on the same trails I have been riding on for 15 years.

I took some pictures, and I think one of them is going to be going up in my clinic. Its a shot of Cuyler (my male Aussie) running towards me just beyond the gate. Unfortunatly the camera focussed on the gate, so he is all fuzzy looking, but I actually like it like that. It's the kind of photo that makes you smile for the sheer joy of it.

The clinic, yes... the pone is ringing, so I can't complain, but I guess you always wish it was busier.

Still waiting on the back deck to be finished. The contractor got behind on a bunch of jobs due to a family situation. I am totally understanding of that, but gosh darnit I want my back deck!!! Oh well, before the snow flies I guess!

To everyone reading this (I know you are out there) please enjoy the last days of fall. Winter is coming sooner than we want to admit.

again...

So today was another day to work on the house. I got a second hand dishwasher a few weeks ago, its been sitting in the porch till my friend could come down to install it. Today was supposed to be that day.

Unfortunatly now we find out that the area for the dishwasher in the kitchen wasn't made for a standard "standard"dishwasher. Aparently there are 2 different sizes of standard dishwasher... news to me.

Unfortunatly too the sides of the stand aren't really moveable. The pantry is on the other side of the stand.

And all the plumbing is 6 inches out of the wall! Not inside the wall where it was supposed to be! So now my friend (who is a contractor) and my dad are taking down 2 walls to fix the insurance companies mistakes!

I love my house, I love my house, I love my house!

just around the corner....

Halloween!! Such a blessed time of year, all the little munchkins out for candy and assorted goodies. This year I am decorating the front of the office and will be handing out candy with a business card. Responsible parents check their kids candy, therefor my cards will be getting into the hands of responsible adults. And even if they hit the garbage, it was cheap advertising. So to all my readers, this is a great way to get out cards.
