Hello from Central Illinois
Been really busy since the last long post. Days are just flying by. Jim and I had visitors last weekend. Our nephew and my in-laws were here for the weekend. Fortunately I was able to be off the whole time they were here.
We took Christopher and his mom and dad over to Sugar Creek on Saturday. Jim, Christopher and I floated down Sugar Creek on tubes. Jim's mom and dad took a canoe. It took Jim Christopher and I about 3 1/2 hours to tube it. Too slow for us. Next time we canoe it with tube behind us. I believe we had fun anyway. I think Bill and Carolyn enjoyed it also.
On Friday night, Sunday night and Monday night we played UNO. That was the best time.
I started a new job a couple of weeks ago. I really like it. It is a challenge to learn everything. There is a lot to learn. There are so many layers to the job. It is going to take some time to learn it all.
Had a new foster to come into rescue in June. She seems to be doing fine. We had her teeth cleaned and a skin tumor removed last week. You wouldn't believe she was 10 years old the way she dances around. She doesn't have too much to do with Bumper Tipsy or Hawkeye.
I did my first home visit for Midwest a couple of weeks ago. Jim and I drove to Bloomington (45 minutes away). We took Tipys with us. The girls at MWBTR told me to look the house over see how the people react with their animals. They said it basically boils down to this: If you would leave your babies with them, then I would approve them. The family treat their dogs like Jim and I do, like family.
Looks like things are going to slow down after this weekend. We should be able to get some things done around the house.
That's all for now. Later!
