A week doesn’t seem like a long period of time, but a lot of change can happen in a week. I wrote about losing our precious border collie a couple of weeks ago and we didn’t know if or when we would get another dog. C & I both love dogs, but losing Patches hurt so much we weren’t sure if we wanted to go through that again. Sometimes fate intervenes and it sure did this time.
A young lady that C works with had to move and could not take her dog with her. She had rescued “Ellie”, a two year old Siberian Husky, and didn’t want to have to take her back to a shelter again. C found out last Thursday about the dog, we got her on Friday, and she is now a permanent fixture in our home. Meet Ellie…
She LOVES long walks, even at 5:00am! The only trouble we have had has been with Mama Cat. She does not appreciate this new addition at all, especially since Ellie is inside and Mama C is not!
Anyway, below is my menu plan for the week. Hopefully, we will have a wonderful first week with Ellie in our lives.
Grilled pork chops with roasted potatoes & salad
Sausage bake
Grilled steaks and potato wedges with salad
Pizza night
Chess Squares
Also, I thought I would share a view of the Little Barren River that flows past the farm we live on. Check out my new header photo!
