Knitting Retreat

I’ve been gone for three days at the annual knitting retreat that my business, Skein Lane Studio, organizes. Great time….and now home here at the “animal farm”. Lucy spent her time at the “dog hotel” Metro Dog. The cats stayed at home with some neighborly care. The household is unusually quiet as they sleep soundly and are in their comfort zone now that I am back home.

My neighbor reported that Ollie was being a rascal about in on Friday  night…I’d left in a hurry on Friday morning …ran out of time to get both cats into the house. With some zealous effort she convinced Ollie to come home.

The report on Lucy when I picked her up this evening was that “she was good but did have to have a ‘couple of time outs’ because she got overexcited with a couple of dogs. I love this place where I take Lucy – and I did have to crack up (to myself) that not only “time out” was mentioned but the two dogs that Lucky was over excited with were mentioned by name. Looks like a little more work on my part to work Lucy’s energy out. She is now more than sound asleep – she really gets a lot of stimulation at her dog hotel.
