A gloomy November day

Hello everyone and happy Sunday! Our weather is not as glorious as last Sunday, it's rather gloomy. The perfect day to prep our meals for the week ahead. Also the perfect morning for Russell to watch an NFL game from Munich. Start time was 9:30 and Brady is playing and winning so far. The GOAT hasn't been all that great to date, unlike our HABS who are doing quite well. Those young players are growing and thriving, whether they win or lose. It's been wonderful to watch them play. 

This past week was good although Monday was a slow day for me. I had my 5th COVID booster in the morning and had flu like symptoms a few hours later. I didn't do much until Tuesday afternoon. No big deal, just had a few naps and took it easy. 

We had some nice walks with the pooches. This time of year can be quite messy with leaves, twigs and all but Fall walks are always lovely by the lake. 

On Wednesday, I met up with my former OT gym buddy, Kathy . It was nice to catch up. We had lots to talk about. On Thursday, Russell washed the venetian blinds from our bedroom. It was a nice day so he hosed them down outside and hung them up on the fence to dry. He washed all the windows and screens. Good job done!

November 9 marked 11 years since we brought our Cooper home. We will always remember that day. He was six months old and full of beans. I thought I would share some of the photos of his early days. Did you know that he came from Pocopayasos Havanese and his registered name is "Pocopayasos Sinfully Delicious", call name Sinner. We changed his name to Cooper when we got him but we often think that we should have kept Sinner.  He suited that name then and would suit it now 😂We do love his name though...there are so many variations.....Coop, Coops, the Coop, Coopster 💖

We woke up to another beautiful sky the other day. I quickly grabbed by phone to capture it. Seconds later, it was gone. Early risers catch beautiful sunrises.

That's my blog for this week. I leave you with a few pics of puppy Coops from 11 years ago, photos taken in our Mississauga home. Have a great week everyone!

Spectacular Fall sunrise from our kitchen window!

Wonder what time it is? These besties  
know it's snuffle time!

Snuffling for freeze dried chicken crumbs
is serious business, no distractions allowed.

Look mom....all snuffled clean. 
Spicy is proud of herself.

his own.

What a cute puppy Coopster was,
 still so handsome today.

Coops had mastered the 'stink-eye' at six
months old and still uses his cheeky looks
to this very day! That's a Sinner look 😂
