'Lil Bit

Bravo has been a lot more loving lately. Also clingy. He sits on the couch, watching out the window. I believe that he is watching for his mommy to return home. Sensing something in the air, he ascertains that maybe life will be changing for him soon. He oftens sits on the edge of the deck, just surveying the scenery. Maybe he is saying "goodbye" to everything here.

Angus is growing by leaps & bounds. Seeming to double in size each month. She is now the size of Isabelle. Just not as heavy.

On Sunday, Father's Day - I got a chance to call my dad & talk for a while in the afternoon. Greg also called his dad & talked for a long time. Hubby had already gotten a Father's day card in the mail from the kids previously in the week -and I gave him my card today. His gift had been the Package that we picked up at the Airport on Friday so he wasn't getting anything else!

We planted lilacs (president poincare) at the front of the house, hung up the suet for the birds, planted more plants (juniper/chamaecyparis pisifera) in the rock garden at the side of the house. Hubby also fixed the dog fence that Harriet had gotten through!

Hubby took a LONG nap from 4-7PM with all the dogs surrounding him. He seemed quite happy.

Went to bed late after taking all the puppies for a walk in the pouring rain. It had started getting cold & rainy late in the afternoon.

*Ironman was in CDA today*

I was up at 4AM on Monday morning to let the dogs out, then briefly went back to bed. Hubby got lattes for us, then went off to work. Debbie has finally returned to our old regular Latte stand and has it open after 5 months of renovation. The drinks are even better than ever!

The kids called and I talked to them for some time. They apologized for not being able to call on Father's Day, but said that our phone line was busy. There are only 8 more days before they return to the US.

Play with the dogs was somewhat difficult as it RAINED all day. It was bitterly cold, too. Hubby came home & nodded off to sleep on the couch again. He said he wasn't feeling too well. Didn't have the ambition to go to work in his shop.

Both of us went to bed with intense stomach pains-maybe food poisoning?
