Gone to the Dogs. The daily life of a hermit and her dog . Wednesday, 4 May 2011. On the positive side, Jack Layton's voice will be heard more clearly now that he is the leader of the opposition. I will be just about 75 years old when I next vote in a federal election. I sure hope that Canada and I survive till then . and that all the people who did not support Harper this election have figured out how best to defeat the man. Links to this post.

http://oma-gonetothedogs.blogspot.com/2011/06/fecundity-of-june.html
Gone to the Dogs. The daily life of a hermit and her dog . Friday, 10 June 2011. The Fecundity of June. Summer is really here . written over two days . Yesterday I went out for my first kayak ride to the end of the lake and back with Kenya following at her lovely steady dog paddling pace. Then we swam and I threw sticks for her to fetch. Even butterflies seem to have exploded everywhere just recently. Clouds of fake monarchs coloured yellow instead of orange greet me every time I open the door. Welcome t...

Gone to the Dogs. The daily life of a hermit and her dog . Friday, 17 June 2011. That tick had been sent to a lab for testing for Lyme disease. I had my chimney swept for the first time . and it wasn't even dirty! Another friend is visiting this weekend . we haven't gotten together for ages . and I am looking forward to spending time with her. I hadn't seen nearly enough of Tamarack either and it was good to at least go shopping at Ikea with her and Carlos on Tuesday. Wakefield is not an African village,...

Gone to the Dogs. The daily life of a hermit and her dog . Tuesday, 7 June 2011. The Lost Writer Returns. Over a month and I have either found no time or content to blog. Apologies once again. I wonder if anyone is still reading! Thank you if you haven't given up on me. I also want to get down to Los Angeles to visit my son so will check out airfares and possible dates soon. And now I am off to deliver a CD of a Stuart McLean story to one of my students, and to finish getting my garden in. There has to b...

Gone to the Dogs. The daily life of a hermit and her dog . Saturday, 30 October 2010. First snow up here . a dusting only that rests on branches, ground and porch roof. Links to this post. Friday, 29 October 2010. October 29, 2010. Organizational Friday or Procrastination Depot. What I discovered: I do not need to buy ground beef or sausages until 2020. Likewise chicken thighs and pork tenderloins. I am thinking of boxes or bins of some kind. The birds are busy emptying the feeders . jays, chickadees...

Gone to the Dogs. The daily life of a hermit and her dog . Wednesday, 30 March 2011. Wondering Where the Wild Things Are? They are here at Pike Lake. Moles are scurrying about under the snow and Kenya is very interested. She goes out on her lead and just spends her time following her nose. Such a delicacate quivering goes on . no rowdy excitement . just intense curiosity . and I haven't seen her salivate yet. The other three lake does are everywhere . and can almost not be designated wild any more. Life ...

Gone to the Dogs. The daily life of a hermit and her dog . Tuesday, 27 July 2010. Dionne Quintuplets and Fecal Coliforms Updated. Update on the water testing:. My sample was 100 ml . so while the acceptable parts per 700 ml for all the fecal bacteria (fecal, E. coli and eneteritis) is 0, my counts are, respectively, 6, 6, and 1 per 100 ml. Now I really hope that my shocking the system twice with javex worked! I can't get the re-test done till mid-August now. Even my errand running was not too onerous: I ...

Gone to the Dogs. The daily life of a hermit and her dog . Tuesday, 26 April 2011. Nothing is easy these days. I feel as if my whole world has been turned upside down. A good friend suggested I start walking on my hands . but since that is not likely to happen, I guess I will just have to adjust bit by bit. So if you don't hear from me except sporadically . it's just the adjustment phase . I am climbing several steep learning curves just now . eventually I will feel comfortable in my new skin. Tamarack w...

I suspect they are being hurried along because of the Quebec construction holidays in July, but yesterday the blasting seemed to be getting more careless. First one of the great rubber tire mats flew to the edge of the road and hung into the lake. Then the next blast shot rocks into the lake. Fake Lakes, Fake Evidence, and Now Fake Laws. Fake Toronto Police Chief? Links to this post. Tuesday, 29 June 2010. Just compare wi...
