Toot

Last week’s grooming appointment for Suki (dog) had to be rescheduled due to a snow storm. It is scheduled for this morning. And it is snowing—two inches and counting. And I do not like driving.

Future me would like to live in a place with well-connected, highly available public transportation that accepts dogs.

Went slow and made it, but it’s foggy and the roads are snow-packed. Not too many cars on the road and most were well-behaved.

Saw a pick-up truck with a big advertisement for something that read like “Project 1876”. I may have got that wrong, and it probably has no relationship to the other project named after a year. But any branding based on a year should probably rethink that choice now. Especially a year that harkens back to the good old days when white settlers were committing genocide of native peoples on this land. (It is probably meant to celebrate the year that Colorado was admitted as state in the USA.)

Anyway, I’m hanging out at nearby breakfast place until Suki is ready. Hopefully, the fog lifts and the roads get cleared before I have to get back out there.

I dropped off a rag mop at the groomer’s, and this little fluffer nutter emerged. She has her fleece jacket on because she is now a bit too naked for a snow day.

Please send e-hugs to the 17-and-a-half-year-old blind dog who has a hard time getting on and off of furniture and barks for me to come get him when he thinks he is alone. He is alone, diapered, and fenced off where he can’t fall down stairs while Suki and I are out for a couple of hours.

@alysonsee that is very hard for all concerned. Does a radio help at all? Or the tv even

@alysonsee

(((hugs)))

I'm sorry he has lost his sight. He can probably compensate a lot by hearing and, especially, by smelling his surroundings. I'm sure he will love his cuddles when you return.

@alysonsee she looks lovely, and how was her elderly friend upon return?
