Dear Pals,
It has been life in the slow lane here in rural Quebec. While the weather is slowly improving and the snow is melting (although as I write this on Sunday there is snow falling . . .), and it is light in the morning during our walks, and the ceiling is not leaking any more, it is boring.
Lady has been far too busy with work. She is working 6 days a week. Short story, the government had cancelled the funding many of the families she works with were getting (she works with individuals with autism and related disorder) and then they reinstated the program for another 6 months. Now Lady has to last minute put together these huge (like 30 page) reports for all the kids (like 20), plus do her regular clinical work. She would have started them all earlier if she had known she was going to have to do them, but when the government said she didn't, she believed them. Anyway, she is crazy busy and maybe a little cranky (but don't tell her I said that). She is making sure we are getting walked and fed and loved. She says to tell you she is sorry for not having visited as often as she would have liked, but she knows you all understand. It is just a season that will hopefully pass soon.
In the mean time, I am bored. I will keep being bored.

oh we hope that your mom can do as much as pawsible for this kids and their furmilies... we wish we would live closer so you could play with us every day...and we could learn a lot too ;O)
ReplyDeletethis is good news and bad news... hope the work load ligtens soon and you have your non cranky mom back. so glad to hear she is working for those in need
ReplyDeletePoor Hailey. We're sorry to hear your mom is working too hard but at least you know the kibble will keep coming. Does Phod know you are sleeping with his Precious?
ReplyDeleteOh Lee, I do sympathise, and Gail sends her best wishes to Lady and hopes that once this particular avalanche of work (20 reports! 30 pages each!) has cleared, you will all have time to do fun stuff together. And who knows, it might even be proper spring by then...
ReplyDeleteToodle pip!
Bertie.
My word Lee sounds like Lady is looking forward to a little boredom in her on life.
ReplyDeleteYIKES...and the leak in the midst of all this. Hugs to all

After my humans owned a pharmacy for 12 years, they understand the truck loads of work the government can throw at you! Dad calls it all "unfunded regulations." Good luck getting through it all!
ReplyDeleteIt will pass and times will get better, Hailey. Patience.
ReplyDeleteLife gets crazy sometimes and we know your Lady is doing the best she can. Hang in there, be good, and give her lots of love.
ReplyDeleteWoos - Lightning, Misty, and Timber - yeah, OK, and Piper too
We get it...and hope things get more exciting soon...like when Phod finds out you have his precious ;-)
ReplyDeletexoxo,
Rosy, Jakey & Arty
We hope your mom's workload lightens soon. Bored pups seems so terribly sad.
ReplyDeleteSounds like things are a bit crazy there at the moment--our government does dumb stuff like that all the time--hope it calms down soon...or at least some interesting animals walk past your window.
ReplyDeleteYour Mom works so hard to help others - you are lucky to have her as a Mom. She'll have more time for you soon.
ReplyDeleteI know about work and understand government funding. Here in America it has no common sense.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on
Oh no... that doesn’t sound like any fun for any of you. I do hope that this season passes very soon.
