The Best Thing About Today...
Sunday morning. The SO is off to get donuts (which I haven't eaten in years--ARE THEY STILL GOOD??) and then maybe a quick swim before I settle into a day of writing.

You could consider adopting an older dog. Marlowe is the only one of my three I got as a puppy. You'll still have to work on the pool issues, though, and dogs need a little house-training reinforcement when they go to new homes, but it's nothing like raising a puppy. Still, in the long run, I find two dogs are easier than one, except where finding an apartment or condo is concerned. And three are way harder than two.

That is my theory--regarding the two versus one. Three...the SO would never go three. He is fighting the idea of two, but that's a battle I know I can win--if I'm certain it's the right decision. ;-)

Yup, get an older dog for sure, if you get a second. I thought about getting a second for Adrien, in the beginning, but I think she’s settled down and is now comfortable alone. She’s not great with other dogs, and has apparently gotten into a minor tiff with another greyhound at daycare, so.... but my space is also small, so we don’t have the space for another dog anyway.
TBTAT... doing final edits on my writing fiction guide for the library. I can’t wait to be done and to share it with the world!!!

Oh yes. You've already got a good sized dog for an apartment!
Marlowe is extremely social and I think he does miss having someone to play with. (Someone who can keep up.)

Finishing Stranger in the House last night and celebrating with a trip to buy plants this morning. :-)
Although the weather has turned weirdly cold again, that crowded patio is a promise of sunny days spent in the garden very soon.

Lol, my Dad told me recently that he’d been dubious about me getting a large dog in a small apartment, until he met Adrien. As with most people, he knew nothing about greyhounds until then. Now he gets it. :-)
TBTAT so far...
Waking up with the windows open to a beautiful day with fresh air all around me. I hate air conditioning, so when I can, this is what I love. It’s not too hot or cold outside, so it’s perfect under my covers. :-) doing some reading before I take Adrien for a long walk. Then we’ll get breakfast and I’ll work on editing all day.
Couldn’t be better. :-)

For me, the best thing about today was getting home, getting pizza, and starting the mini series And Then There Were None. I’m sooo exhausted and cranky, I needed this break. Now, to get to bed early!

And checking the link I found out: «Coming soon in print and audio». Wonderful!
A super useful webinar on how to use Goodreads as an author! I mean, you would think as long as I've been on here I'd know the basics, but no. I never leave this group.
Among other things, I learned why some of my upcoming books still reflect old release dates.
I love learning new and useful things. <3

Our new granddaughter!
Born this afternoon (June 6, 2019) in Port Angeles, Washington.
We'll meet her on Sunday when we arrive after our 3-day drive.
Happily our younger daughter was with her sister throughout her labor and the birth. :)

Hi Alison! We’re in SLC again — just an overnight AirBNB stop enroute (about 11 hours ABQ-SLC with stops). :)

Today is the Pride Parade! I’m working at the library this morning, but then I’m tabling at the Pride Festival in the afternoon for work. Today should be a fun day!
