Louise called at about 5:30 last night to say that she was slammed with patients and would not get home in time to go owning so we decided to postpone that activity until the weekend. It was very windy so we didn't go Spike hunting either. We had a number of donation pickups this morning and more people came in to drop off. We priced everything and sold most of it before the day was over. We even had a few sales happen just as we were ready to close for the day. We came home and I made a pot roast for dinner. Louise was late again tonight as she had a hair appointment and then went back to the office to finish up some charts.
Today, Louise left for work and then was back in about 10 minutes. I thought she had forgotten something, but she had seen a pup running down the middle of the road and brought it home. We put it in a kennel and fed it while she called Animal Control. It was a very cute puppy, but quite scared and very hungry - no collar for ID. Animal Control said they would meet her in the hospital parking lot so we put the kennel in the back of her car and she was off again. We had another busy drop off donation day again today with one of them coming at the end of the day so we will have to deal with it tomorrow morning. We only had about 80 customers, but made $595. Tomorrow is our last day of working. I think we are picking Mike (Louise's husband) up at the airport tomorrow afternoon and then hopefully going out to dinner. Louise just came home and said that the Animal Control Officer came right away and took him to the shelter. She wishes she could give him a home, but she does not need a third dog! She told a friend about him and he may be adopted by someone she knows, which would be a better situation. Almost dinner time, so will say good-bye for now. Happy St. Patrick's Day to all. We are remembering our wonderful trip to the Emerald Island several years ago.
