It was a last minute decision this week to join in on the walk. My sister had originally planned on visiting this weekend, then Scottish lockdown happened, so we agreed to a day trip midway and then Manchester went into teir 3, so that got cancelled and I've been a bit bummed out this week (post holiday blues haven't helped either!). The dog walkers usually have a Halloween party, but restrictions have put a brake on that, so they decided to organise a woodland walk and outdoor training session.
So where did we go? A pet cemetery! We had no idea the place existed, and it fitted in perfectly with the theme of the walk. There was some recall training and lead etiquette training (Missy, having passed her level 4 training last year thought this very beneath her, but she enjoyed the fuss all the same).
Everyone stuck to social distancing and dogs were to stay on lead as we had a reactive pooch leading the way, but we still had plenty of opportunity to chat with the other dog owners.
In other news, today was a nice break from the rain we've had all week. Poor Missy was absolutely soaked yesterday and was in a huff for the rest of the day. She's prone to getting a bit of a chill in her old age and had cheered up substantially this morning after getting to spend our extra of the day in bed having a cuddle.
In sewing news, I have finished Project Christmas Part 1, which I will share after the event, so in the meantime I will share this little stitch:
I got the opportunity to do some test stitching for Acid Panda Crafts and was rather pleased with how this turned out. Its perhaps a little too accurate for the household!
Bless, look at that adorable face! I'd give her treats all the time!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad that you managed to do something fun despite our awesome planned weekend together just not happening.
Also, yes, that cross stitch is a perfectly accurate statement for you before your morning tea! You'll need to tell me how you managed to test cross stitch it!
