When Ray is asleep, it is easy to reflect back on his time with us. Of course when he is asleep, it invariably means we also have to figure out which foot belongs to which leg, and how he got himself into that position! Continue reading
Just Ray!
This Category is simply for Posts about Ray which have little to do with his book “Who Said I was up for Adoption?” Of course you might be interested in getting his book when you understand what a sweetheart he has become … since his life as a stray, and all the health issues that came with him as a result of those earlier times.
That time of year!
It’s that time of year when … Continue reading
Merry Christmas!
Christmas may be a time of year when we emphasize the conditions of the less fortunate, and also the giving aspects that many of us have as a core belief. Christmas can be an overwhelming time of sadness and despair as a result of the life experiences for so many … but it can also be a time for celebration.
Regardless of whether this is a religious celebration to you, or just a nice break from your usual routines, I hope that you will take advantage of the opportunity to just chill and enjoy! Continue reading
Ray at Tim’s Drive-Thru!
This is a very brief (16secs) video of Ray as we wait in the Tim Hortons Drive-Thru line-up, and then approach the pickup window. Continue reading
” … and so the seasons change!”
This past Monday was a glorious day. We have already bid our farewell to Summer, and have not welcomed Winter just yet. Our weather forecasters were predicting only a slight chance of rain (with sunny periods) so we had a quick discussion, and it was decided to give Ray an extra special walk. Continue reading
A Dog’s Life!”?
I came across an old Post recently (link below) and thought it would make a good revisit for many of us, and an interesting first time read for my new Followers over the past couple of years! Continue reading
Good grass!
Ray has not been particularly active this past summer. I am guessing that having a thick double-coat in hot and humid conditions is a significant factor. Who knows what impact his tumor had on him earlier and, of course, he is not getting any younger. Continue reading
Adopting Ray?
We often stop and chat with other dog owners when out with Ray on his walks. The conversations typically revolve around age and the dog’s background, and it is surprising how often we meet another “rescued” dog!
Sometimes I am asked how Ray and I met, or what made me decide to adopt him. I immediately relate the story that, contrary to what most people assume, Ray in fact adopted me. Continue reading
Remember Ray?
I thought “Remember Ray” a good subject line because you haven’t heard much about him recently (apart from his surgery). Come to think of it, you haven’t heard much from me in general! Continue reading
A Ray Update!
My apologies to my Followers for the distinct lack of Posts (including my Saturday music Posts) for this past couple of weeks. The main reason was the surgical procedure necessary for our beloved Ray’s good health, with complications due to this time of year being heavily committed to other projects.
However … to Ray! Continue reading
A New Direction Perhaps?
