So I brought Cookie home on Monday, and she is every bit as sweet as I thought... but was in need of a bath. Below are a couple of before and after photos. She already knows how to give a good 'stink-eye'.😂

Wow, I haven't been online since around 6:00 last night, and it looks like the world might have exploded. Doesn't matter though, I have some news.
I finally decided to get another dog after losing my two back in October '24. And so, meet Cookie! 🥰The other pup on the right is her sister Bunny.

I never knew how to explain my preference of being a bit of a hermit, but this says it all...

I have always wanted a rhododendron, and I had what I thought was the perfect spot. After getting it home, I looked up how to plant it and discovered it can't placed under a walnut tree as I had planned.
Now I have to figure out where to put it...🤔

I have wanted a rhododendron for a long time, and when I saw this lavender one, I had to have it as I had what I thought was the perfect space...
Turns out that that 'perfect spot in the garden' is right under a walnut tree... the worst possible place to plant it. I'm not sure what to do with it.🤔

My peonies opened a bit late because of the cold Spring, but they're finally here. It's the 1st time they have bloomed, and I'm super excited.
First is Monsieur Jules Elie, and the second plant is another classic, Sarah Bernhardt. Full pale pink colour takes a few days to come in, but the scent!

I'm about to plant one of these... it's a reblooming lilac. It first blooms in Spring and then again in Summer through early Fall. Can't wait to enjoy the scent twice a year!

I admit it was a lot closer than I expected; I was hoping for a blowout. Nonetheless, I'm thrilled #PMCarney won and am looking forward to seeing his vision for a new 🍁 come to life.
The bonus is, of course, that it pisses off Trump while we're at it. 😉

Don't sit at home thinking Mark Carney has this in the bag... there is too much at stake to not be involved.
I just voted about an hour ago... it took all of five minutes and I was back out the door. #VoteCarney #CanadaStrong #ElbowsUp

JFC, they couldn't pull that skin any tighter... her mouth must open every time she crosses her legs!
Does she remind anyone else of Madame, Wayland Flowers' puppet from the 70's?

After last night, I'm even more certain that #MarkCarney is the right man at the right time to guide us through this transition to a new economy that is not so dependent on the USA. #CanadaStrong 🍁
