Happy Sunday everyone! We are enjoying a glorious day, nothing but sunshine and double digit temperatures. Not bad for November. This stretch of nice weather has been with us since last week, more to come this week. With the time change, we will also have brighter mornings, at least for a while until Winter settles in for good.
This past week was good and quiet. On Tuesday, we took Cooper to the vet as he was not getting much better. It might have been a bacteria of some sort or a flare up of his chronic GI condition. He's been on antibiotics since with another week to go. The Coop is basically back to his old self now and we are back at having full uninterrupted nights. I will be updating his health record daily for the next little while just to keep track of things.
On Friday, my friend Lillian and I did something different...we went to Salon Rosie-Lanoi in Pointe-Claire Village, a tea salon. It was a lovely way to spend a few hours while sipping tea and nibbling on cucumber and egg finger sandwiches, squash fritters, scones and a few sweets. A very pleasant and relaxing lunch with great company and food. Now to convince Russell that he should go with me 😂
The holiday planters at our local Provigo are out. It never fails, every year, same timing. I didn't buy any, much too soon I think. On the topic of Christmas though, this morning we went to St-Lazarre for our annual family Christmas photo shoot. Spicy and Cooper were all decked out with pretty red bows and a holiday tie. Can't wait to see how they turn out.
Our leaves have basically all fallen. Yesterday, we filled about 12 bags, Russell cut the grass for the last time and he also washed the windows. It was the perfect day to do outdoor chores. I also sat on the deck with our pooches for a couple of hours. I'm actually sitting outside now, quite lovely I must say.
Quebec municipal elections are being held today and Russell will be a scrutineer at our local polling station tonight as of 7:30 pm. It is the perfect role for him!
Those are our little news. Have a great week everyone!
