Kasey's Country Vacation Home

Hello, my name is Kasey, Bear is my BFF; we met at daycare. Now I spend time at Bear's house when my mommy has to go out of town for work and when my mom & dad go on vacation. Grover and Angel who live with Bear all the time are lots of fun too. But they are not too happy with me when I try to steal their treats which isn't too often because they know my tricks now. I love it here because I can go on the furniture (which) I can't do at home. Bear has his own love seat which I usually try to get on when he's not looking. Angel has her own special chair too. This is the life as Bear's yard is so big with lots of places to hide and then pounce on the unsuspecting squirrels. LOL I try that with Bear too and then he chases me around the yard. Oh  I almost forgot Bear's mommy gave me my own bowl and eating table. I love it. . Well I better go I saw some bones on the carpet when I came in the house so I am going to take one and enjoy it. Nice chatting, bye.



Kasey is right Bear loves aving Kasey come for visits so they can play together for hours on end.  Angel likes to watch them play from the comfort of sitting next to me. She will go out and bark at them sometimes if she thinks they are getting too rowdy which is usally all the time. LOL The dogs have lots of fun and that's the main thing. Kasey has been here a lot this winter and has his own bed, bowl, and eating table (which I made for mine and one for him too). Well I better go for now it's time to let them out again ... they love it outside especially when it's nice out. Right now it's snowing and they love romping around with one another.

Cheers,
Jaime

Winter Musings

G'Day

It's been sometime since I have posted to my blog so I decided to write a brief note. Christmas and New Year has come and gone and we are well into 2012. I continue to enjoy retirement and grateful to not have to go out in the cold and drive to work anymore.

The winter so far has been most interesting weather wise. We have not had the snow nor cold as we usually have this time of year. I don't mind less snow as I am the one shoveling it. It's been warmer although last couple of weeks have been a deep freeze. Again, grateful not to have to venture out, except going out with the dogs.

I have been spending my time building various projects in the house. For example, a new closet for the front entrance, shelves, work table and shelf for storage. In the living room I built a frame around the window to house a variety of smaller items a couple of home theatre speakers and a bookshelf for books and DVDs underneath the window. Also Angel has a new condo I built for her which also serves as an end table. In my study I moved the bookshelf I made a couple of years ago into the living room and made another one in my study which houses my drawing and sketching supplies and books. I promise to post some pictures as soon as I am able to upload them from my Blackberry.

Well, I am off to do a few domestic things around here.

Cheers,
Jaime
