OK
I stole a line from Dylan (Bob not Thomas)
It's
been a couple of weeks since I wrote in my 'weekly' blog. I guess
it's that time of year as the Guelph Studio Tour took up all of last
weekend from Friday evening until Sunday evening.
It's
exhausting work standing around talking to people!
Another
downside is there was no time to relax and unwind before the workweek
began again.
Add
to that we have a new 'puppy' I put that in quotes as she is almost a
year old, 40 lbs of crazy puppy-ness.
Winter,
(that's her name) is a Siberian Husky, pure white with ice blue eyes,
she can melt your heart with a glance.
We
have hired Emily, the dog whisperer, to help and slowly she is
learning what is 'civilized doggy behaviour' when meeting people or other
dogs.
If you see me walking down the street (sorry Ms Warwick,
another stolen line) don't be offended if I cross over or make a
sudden exit left, we are under orders from Emily....
Anyone
who has or has had a dog will understand today's quotation:
“I
talk to him when I'm lonesome like; and I'm sure he understands.
When
he looks at me so attentively, and gently licks my hands;
then
he rubs his nose on my tailored clothes, but I never say naught
thereat.
For
the good Lord knows I can buy more clothes, but never a friend like
that”. ~W. Dayton Wedgefarth
