Hi ! Ren here reporting ! ! * salutes*
Two weeks ago, our 14 -year- old mini-Aussie died. He’d been with us for 12 years. We rushed him to the vet hospital at 10 PM… then the next day, at 3 AM, we got a call from the vet that our beloved dog died. Early morning we went to see him for the last time… We also got billed for $1,800 that included cremation fees, his ashes in a nice box, and a memorial plate with his name George etched in it. Last week, we adopted a 1 year old terrier- American pitbull mix from the animal shelter . He was a stray dog. Moreover, he had failed the shelter’s behavioral tests. We chose him, nonetheless …. and because he is just 1 year old, I guess he has not outgrown his destructive tendencies. Look what he did to our couch. .. and to my new comforter, and 3 pairs of shoes, one of which I haven’t even worn yet.
* sigh*….. Oh, well.
Oh, and good news. I’ve started ” reading” again. I managed to read 3 books in 2018. All political books, though. Does that count? The book I’m currently reading is a crime/thriller 2nd Chance by my favorite author, James Patterson. I bought it years ago from our neighborhood library, hardbound, mint condition, for a dollar.
But this morning, after hearing Sunday Mass, I passed by Barnes and Nobles and bought 3 books… James Patterson’s The President is Missing , ( $30 ) and 2 by Brandon Sanderson, Book One of the Stormlight Archive series, The Way of the Kings, and Book Two, Words of Radiance, ( $ 11.99 each ) . Guess who’s the co-author of The President is Missing ? Ta-da ! ! Former President Bill Clinton ! Whoa !
Okay, that’s all . Bye and peace ! !
