Syncronicity and Emergency Vets

It’s been an eventful and interesting day, starting at 3:30 a.m. this morning…

…with a pit stop at the emergency vet’s, along the way.

Kiera had a little issue that was easily resolved, and all’s well that ends well on that front.

That’s by way of saying that if you don’t know where your nearest emergency vet facility is, you should find out now.

My day was made a lot more manageable by knowing exactly where our emergency clinic was … Read More

Silver Linings and Thanksgiving

I learned a long time ago that, when I’m paying attention, I can always find a silver lining in the most difficult of circumstances.

The silver lining in Kiera not fully recovering from Vestibular Disease is that it has given me the push I needed to decide to work from home rather than going into the office every day.

A Light Show to Beat All Light Shows

Space.com senior writer Mike Wall reports that particles ejected by recent solar storms are due to slam into Earth over the next few days, possibly causing super-charged northern lights displays and temporary radio blackouts in some areas, experts say.

Geomagnetic storms can also trigger dramatic aurora displays, which are also known as the northern and southern lights. So skywatchers at higher latitudes may want to look up after sunset over the next few days.

Here In This House

Though this poem was written with a dog in mind, I believe it speaks to the care we owe all living beings. In this season of thanks-giving, I am thankful for all the four-footeds who bring me so much joy “here in this house” of mine.

Wishing you and yours peace and blessings this Thanksgiving.

Here in this house…
I will never know the loneliness I hear in the barks of the other dogs ‘out there’.
I can sleep soundly,
