Hello cuties! Just a quick update from Big Daddy and I. We have been so busy with keeping up with yard work after all the storms we keep having. Thankfully Big Daddy is tall and isn't scared of ladders so he's been trimming the trees and bushes, just trying to get things cleaned up after the storms. I don't know if you know or not but last week Springfield, Illinois they had a tornado that went through there, the wind and rain was unbelievable. We actually live about 10 miles from Springfield. Thankfully no one was injured that we know of. However, it did rip off the roof of the APL which is a building that houses dogs and cats that need homes and again thankfully none of them were injured. I'm sure they were scared though. The community has rallied around them holding fundraisers and surrounding areas dog and cat shelters have reached out and taken in some of the animals for them. This community is truly a blessing. In other news, I still have Walker 2 days a week and we are totally enjoying being outside when we're able, he rides around in his little coop car, we play basketball, swing, smell the flowers and walk through my little garden. He also loves to sit out front and watch the big trucks go by and he waves to everybody. He is the sweetest little guy. There is no way to measure the love I have for him and our time together. The last two week I was invited to tag along with my girlfriend who owns a retail store. She was going shopping for wholesale items. Traveling with her is always fun. We used to do this years ago a lot but life gets in the way, now being retired I'm able to go again. We had so much fun seeing all the beautiful items at the wholesale companies and experiencing all the beautiful ribbons and florals, etc. Yes,,,,you know I did purchase a few rolls of ribbon, I mean who can resist right? Anyway, I hope you all are safe and well. Know that Big Daddy and I think of you and also pray for all of you! 🩷
Be kind
