Yesterday evening was a bit rushed. I did not get home
until about 4:40 because I stopped by Prime Metal in Bridgeport on my way home.
I had to order the trim pieces for the well house and the goat barn. I am
trying to get the well house enclosed before the severe cold weather we have in
the forecast for late this week. I am not sure I will make it but I am giving
it my best shop. Unfortunately, I did not have time to work on it yesterday. I
really wanted to seal up the front edge before the predicted rain started today
but I did not make that deadline. By the time I got home, Mama and Victoria
were through feeding and Victoria was headed out to the LuLaRoe lady to try on
a dress. Mama began quizzing me on whether or not I wanted to help her decorate
the house and was both disappointed and shocked when I reminded her about our
cooking lessons and taking Yilin and Cheyenne to Masters Club Christmas Program
Practice. The look on Mama’s face was priceless when she realized she had
forgotten and had scheduled a puppy visit for 5:30.
It was too late to cancel out on the family coming to see a
pup because they were headed to Chico from Bowie as I was reminding Mama of our
other commitments. The family has a special needs child and they currently have
a large dog that is very near the end of his life. That dog had been a valuable
part of the child’s life so far. They are looking for a dog to grow up with their
four-year-old autistic child – and we have the perfect pup to fill that need. They
fell in love with one of the males and left a deposit with Mama. We are giving the
pups their first shots either tonight or tomorrow. The family will pick up the
pup Thursday. They are very excited. Even though we had to rush a bit, they were
satisfied with the visit and the selection. We now have only two pups left and
there seems to be a strong interest in them. My hope is that by the first of
the year our birthing center/day care will be empty.


When Mama got back with the girls, we all sat and visited
while the three of them ate. It was a fun evening.
