I miss Jam terribly. I thought that after a week it would get easier but it really hasn't. There is a huge hole in the house and in my heart. I'm sure as time passes it will get better, but right now I just miss my buddy. On a happier note, Abby and Joy were adopted this weekend to fantastic homes. If I had sent in a custom order I couldn't have done better. Now to move on and find homes for the remaining four.
Never one to return home empty handed, I brought a visitor and a couple of new additions to the family. Glitter will be staying here for a brief visit while John and Sahra work on their new country home and Lolli has her babies in late October. She made herself right at home and sometime during the night ended up in the bed much to Maddy's disgust and Spice's pouting. Actually I'm not sure if Maddy was really disgusted, just disgruntled at being woken up. Spice is definitely pouting, definitely.
Our new arrivals are a senior citizen retiree, named Lymmy, a lovely smooth Collie lady who moved right in and found the comfiest dog bed. She and Tori worked out a few kinks and I explained to them that along with Maddy (who frankly could care less unless it comes to feeding times or disturbing her sleep) they are the senior set and need to band together to keep the youngsters under control. I'm sure Tori thinks that is a great idea as she already has taken control of all of the boys, Lymmy looked at me like I was nuts (?), I mean after all, she doesn't "work" anymore, thank you very much, take care of the youngsters yourself.
I brought home a new "Hobb-y" for myself. Peppi was kind enough to offer to share her Hobbs with me so he'll be a permanent resident. I'll have a specials dog for the first time since Ripley, so look for us to be out having fun after the first of the year. Pictures and/or video as I find time. Seems I'm always short on time.
