Regular life
someone asked about my *regular life* . Ok, say I, will do
This morning, I went down to the Hotel Albuquerque where we will be holding Radiant Ranch in May. One of our attendees is blind and asked for an orientation. I am going to make her a tactile map so I wanted to scope it out. I ordered breakfast at their restaurant and read USA today while eating it. Then on the way home I stopped at Starbucks and got a decaf latte. I had the dogs in the car with me and Ronan wanted to sit in the front and put his head on my lap which meant he would cover up the sift handle, so we stopped several times to discuss that.
I came home and went to look at one of the computers in the office. It got sick yesterday and it took all night to run disk warrior. The prognosis is not good. I think this is the computer that has all the golden retriever rescue files on it and no, it does not run automatically to a backup and no, I do not think I told the volunteer to back it up regularly. I decided to deal with it later.
I am waiting for AAA to come and jump start my 4-runner so I can take 2 dogs, mo and Curley down to Animal Humane. They were brought to me yesterday and I am assuming they were puppy mill breeding dogs and have only lived in a cage. They are young, unneutered and VERY wild. A little beyond what I can do this week since I am leaving for Maine next weekend to spend a week on the beach.
Patti is coming by in a bit and she and I will go over to LInda’s rental house and prune the roses. Patti just spent a week on the internet learning to prune roses, so I am counting on her skill. Then we will take Ronan over to dog class for clicker training.
After class, my worker, Harold is coming over to repair the back yard and kennels. The last dog was a digger and did some serious damage to the kennel. At 3 or so, someone is coming to see the little guy named Abe. You can see all these dogs at www.grrnm.com if you like. Then I will meet the person who adopted Sugar to finsih their paperwork.
In between, I am working on my taxes, doing the laundry, putting away the groceries I got yesterday and vacuuming the floor. I also did 280 emails this morning, and posted the forum. I will post class lessons later in the day. And will check in on all the assorted face book pages. And David is wanted me to learn how to play Farmville. Last night at dinner he said, *Ma, all your field only have dead strawberries.* Now that was embarasing.
And then this evening, I have dinner plans with friends. After dinner, we will do walks with dogs.
This is a regular life Saturday.It is a little more structured than usual. I even filled out a schedule to keep track, LOL.
I am taking to heart our discussions at chat about *play* so will plan a play day for tomorrow. Maybe I will start working on my quilt thingie. Or maybe I will simply sits on the front porch and watch the balloons go by while I have a cup of tea. I don’t know if quiet time qualifies as play time.
