Big Week Ahead

This is going to be a huge week for me. I'll elaborate later.

Here in Charleston, SC, everybody is all ramped up about the tropical storm/hurricane Ophelia. Sadly, one of the young men who works here has a friend who went surfing yesterday afternoon, in the rough waves from the storm, and disappeared. They found his board but no trace of him yet. I am hoping for the best but preparing for the worst.

Jen emailed me this morning that the dogs were playing chase around the back yard this morning. One would grab the ring toy and the other would chase, then they would switch places. Probably the first time that they have really started to get along in an interactive way. They still have the compulsory fight each day, but they are SLOWLY getting better. I hope that they will be all through with their fighting crap after a month or so.

Lily is such a good dog. She is a typical mellow hound type dog - sleeps ALL day and night. Cinnamon is such a freaking spaz. They are polar opposites to be sure.

Jen's parents are coming through tomorrow for a visit as they travel from North Carolina back to home in Amelia Island, FL. I'll get to see them as I go back to Aiken Tuesday night. It's always fun - and they like the new dog. Bob, Jen's Dad, calls her boots since she has white "boots" on her feet.

Anyhoo - back to work.
