Back a while ago, I mentioned the Halloween charity dog walk for Guelph Animal Hospital. Well, despite not making it home until nearly 3 a.m. the night before, I dragged my sorry butt out to the walk, and I’m glad I did. I was originally going to go with the shoe thief, but Shoe was …

Thanksgiving, and Other Rambles
I just felt like rambling, and since the blog may get a little quiet over the next couple of days because Steve and I are both running off to Thanksgiving stuff, what better time for a ramble fest. First, happy Thanksgiving to all the Canadian readers. Hope you have lots of yummy food and pleasant …
Trixie Isn’t Singin’ In The Rain
It’s official, Trix is a giant puss. She’s stubborn as a mule, but a puss! We set off to go to the drug store that’s not far from here. We had to pick up a few things. When we left it was raining. But we didn’t have to go far, so I figured we could …
Odds And Ends And Updates
I had a few random thoughts on some things, so figured I’d throw ’em together and make a small post. Remember back when I said I would switch Trixie’s food? Well, the switch is complete, and boy does she seem to love her new food. Holy hell. She will suck that stuff back like it’s …
>Talk About Your Back-Handed Compliment!
>I’ve been told in the past that I’m so young and pretty, what a waste that I’m blind, but I heard a close second tonight. I went out to this weird sing-along thingy that was happening at a restaurant in Guelph. I thought, as I was going, how is this going to work? We’re at …
It’s more Trixter Goodness!
I had a few thoughts about Trix, so thought I’d write them down so when I do write about her, it’s not a giant monster of doom. I talked about being worried about the number of times Trix has needed her anal glands expressed. Well, a few days after that, the foot-chewing increased again. It …
I Have A Brother-In-Law!
It’s Monday, and I’m still feeling kinda dopy and tired. I guess that’s to be expected after the crazy Saturday Steve and I had. Don’t worry, it was a good crazy! My sister got married! Yup, eek. I now have a brother-in-law. He’s a cool guy. They’ve been together a while, he’s been a friend …
The Teddy Bear Picnic Was A Blast
Back last Friday, I mentioned the Teddy Bear Picnic. Well, yesterday, it happened, and it was a lot of fun. We had lots of fun. We had bears wearing little glasses, bears with little white canes, lots of stuff. We had a model of a communication board for kids who have trouble speaking, we had …
Rare And Awesome Guide Dog Moments
Yesterday was quite the day of rare happenings. First, I was able to explain to not one, but two different people the concept of why you shouldn’t pet a working dog, and they got it! They really got it! Second, a little tiny kid looked at me and quietly asked, “Can I…please…pet…your dog?” With a …
Another Chuck Visit Down
So, I mentioned that I would be having my Chuck follow-up during that giant Trixie post on Saturday. Yesterday, we had it. It was a quick one, and probably not my best follow-up, but Chuck seemed reasonably comfortable with it. It was so damn hot that I was glad we probably wouldn’t be walking far. …
