I am currently watching honey bees moving from blossom to blossom in bright sunshine. It's hazy less than a mile away on the foothills, and was very overcast this morning. I'm house-sitting at Rosie's, taking care of my kits at home, and have a new client that consists of two cats and two dogs. The dogs were both rescue dogs; Cooper is a black and white English Springer Spaniel, Lola is a black mutt with rust points who has trust issues. The cats are an older white and orange patched guy named Pounce, who takes thyroid medicine; and a brown tabby Maine Coon. Tipsy, the second cat, has white paws, a white nose, and the extreme tip of his tail has a white spot of fur. I feed and water all of the critters twice a day, medicate Pounce in the evening, walk the dogs twice, gather the mail and newspapers, and water the plants and garden... So I'm staying busy.
I also had an enjoyable day yesterday - besides doing all of the above, I had lunch at Mimi's Cafe with Bea, and then we went shopping for a new work wardrobe for her. Bea has seniority in the grocery chain store where she works; as she earns more pay, the manager keeps her working short hours. She finally started looking for another job early this summer - and starts next week. But she now needs a new "working wardrobe," so we went out and got her a few new outfits. Then we watched a bunch of mysteries and laughed ourselves silly making off-the-wall predictions. It was pretty fun.
I know that the South Carolina Gamecocks beat the Tar Heels yesterday; the Broncos lost; and Tim Tebow passed for two TDs to help win the game for the Patriots. I hope that Mr. Kraft's liking of Tebow results in his being kept on the team, and results in some play for him!
