A lovely week

The week was as lovely and varied as this photo taken this afternoon on the way back from Bigfork.

The week…mostly ups, just a few downs.

A productive work week as we push to finish the current version of software.

Up and down for Bob…we’re changing his food to hopefully help get his blood sugar more stable and it caused some fits with his digestion but minor and mostly he was his normal curmudgeonly self and my nighttime snuggle buddy!

Bear continues to do well off leash with the exception of some critter last night and early this morning. I really can’t blame him. I’m thinking it was the raccoon that passes through. He alerted last night and we did the dark o’clock last walk on leash. The night was quiet so I thought whatever had moved on, but no…and this morning in the dark, he treed whatever and wouldn’t “leave it” until I got the Jeep out. Peril of the long nights that will get longer before they get shorter. All in all, though, he is doing so very well – even the few times when I’ve been distracted by phone or this week, the guy here to work on my range…on his own outside, he stayed on the property and came when called.

But, the range…fixable and should be done next week. AND, it is only the lower oven not working so I am hardly bereft for that :)!

Motorhome, back from the shop and though nothing definitive on the battery failure, it is currently holding its charge and all seems normal…tentatively planning a next weekend, close to home, shakedown of motorhome, Bear travelling and Bob staying home with a new house/cat sitter.

And in honor of Friday: Pumpkin Carrot cupcakes with Pumpkin cream frosting.

A lovely end to a lovely week.
