In reply to Mike and Mary Boland. Hi you two, Sorry I didn't respond sooner. We will have to communicate by phone perhaps. I had a busy week and thought I had responded. I have a dog to walk and feed at 5 pm, but will be done after that. Tomorrow on Saturday, I will take the dog out early in the morning, feed some cats and then there is a baby shower at noon and dog walk at 1pm. Dinner would be best on Saturday evening. Give us a call.

We will plan on it. We will call you, or you call us, Friday evening, or Saturday morning.
See you soon.
Mary

Hi Mike and Mary,
Yes, we will be in town. I do have pups I have to take care of, but lunch would be great! I wish we could invite you to our favorite restaurant, but it closed. I don’t know why, because it was so good and busy. Oh well, we will figure something else out. It would be so wonderful to see you both.
Dianne

Hi Mary,
I am doing better all the time. I finally took time this morning to update my journal. I have been so busy with my business, I was spinning. Ha. Hope you and your family are doing well. Thanks for inquiring. It made me remember to post something. Dianne

Hello Dianne and Pete,

Glad to hear there is progress, even though it is slow. Must feel great to be out and about doing the things you used to do. Your Christmas trip perhaps did not turn out as you had hoped, but, like you said, at least you were there to see the twins a bit, and be there to take care of Pete’s mom when she got sick. You were in the right place, at the right time.
We will keep you both in our prayers.
Take care!
Love,
Mary and Mike

In reply to Mike and Mary Boland.

I have gotten bad about keeping up with my journal. I am finally better, but I am still fatigued after activities. I am finally past the infection after two rounds of the wrong antibiotics and then two rounds of the right ones. It really knocked me for a loop. I had to put my dog walking clients on hold, because it was more than I could do. The more activity causes fluid build up and I have had two times that the doctor has aspirated fluid from around the surgical site.

I had thought this was going to be a quick recovery, only to get a post surgical infection and recovery being delayed. My clients have been very understanding. I am glad I got involved in a Pet Sitter’s Networking group, so I referred out in the meantime, so I could recover. I am now back to working with pet sitting/house sitting, but I have been upfront with the clients and told them I can not walk the dogs for a couple more weeks. Pete helps me when he is off, otherwise the pups don’t get their walks. I just feed them, visit, clean their poop, and throw the toys or not. I have been doing the kitties and they are work, but not with the walking at least. I will resume the dog walking after Christmas. I hope I will be strong enough after that.

I am disappointed we didn’t connect while you were here, but I was too fatigued to do more than I was already doing. I wasn’t contagious to anyone else, but I was not up to a whole lot. Perhaps we can connect next time round. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving and that your Christmas will be stress free with happy times with family and friends.

Pete and I will be going to Phoenix for Christmas since we didn’t last year and will enjoy family and get to know the twins (boy and a girl) that Pete’s niece had last year. They will be one year old in January, and I think they are the cutest babies in the world!

Many blessings to you two. Love, Dianne and Pete
