I finished showing off my skills to 3 different elementary schools, and introduced my cuteness to over 400 students… then I went for a drink. Yes, I tried the Rascal drinks at the liquor store. Every purchase helps fund PADS, so I just had to try one. It was... Read more

It’s been an exciting month. I was away for a week, and Korra went to sit with a high school councillor in West Van. She did an amazing job, and her sitter was very impressed. This may be her calling. She is such an attuned little girl. Always knows when someone... Read more

Blazer spent the beginning of June recovering from his neuter surgery, so it was a pretty quiet start to the month. To make his recovery a bit easier, I got him a new pirate chicken toy, which he enjoyed chewing on. By mid-month, he was back on his feet and ready for... Read more

June has been so much fun. The sun comes up early and is still out late into the evening. I have been waking my handlers earlier and earlier these days, and while I love it, they seem to get a tad annoyed, especially on something called “weekends”. I also had a friend... Read more
