July 16: The Best Five Dogs in The World

Today's post is dedicated to my sister-in-law, Yvette. Getting to know her better has been a blessing for me and my family. We have more in common than not and I'm happy to call her sister. Ben always wanted to be there and do for his sister, but he was not a man who expressed himself freely. I think he would be happy to know that Yvette and I are closer than we've ever been. She calls to check on me and I know she's thinking of me and cares for me, as I do her.

Today I did yoga, such as it was. The dogs kept trying to lay down on the yoga mat and whenever I would close my eyes one of them would lick my face. Feeling pretty good though. Terry and Jackie left to the Catskills to help Cody and Devin prepare for the wedding. They took Buffy, the pig to the pet day care first. The house is very quiet without them, but especially without Buffy. That little piggy has a lot to say and not quietly. I stayed in today under the ceiling fan and near the wifi to catch up on my daily posts. I just have to type yesterday's and today's and I'll be caught up. Yeah me! Terry and Jackie's three dogs and my two dogs have gotten along really well. As I typed they all slept. It was like a dog slumber party like at the end of the children's book, Go Dog Go. While I made dinner in the camper - Beef Stroganoff (gluten free) I watched a funny movie, called The Duplex with Ben Stiller and Drew Barrymore. Very cute comedy. I started watching this show on HBO Max called, Wellington Paranormal. It's based in New Zealand and is made like a documentary, but so funny. I was laughing out loud so the dogs had to come investigate.

I did have one little panic attack yesterday evening, just before the sun went down. I decided to check on Ben in the greenhouse. OMG - He must have gotten too hot in there. He was all droopy. I gave him some water and put him on the table by the open window. Today he is much better. Thank God.

Better go to bed so I can get on the road tomorrow by 11:30. I'm staying at a campground near the Catskills, so I can go to the wedding. I don't know how long I'll be able to hang at the reception. I don't like leaving my dogs for any length of time. We'll see. Thinking about dogs...I really hope that Cosette is doing well. She is such a loving dog and I know that she is missing her pack, as much as we are missing her.
