Done and done-r

Yes, yes, I can hear you now ... "Why are you writing this so long after the fact?" Well, the truth of the matter is that we were too busy enjoying the weekend and preparing for our return to home, and we completely forgot there was one more blog pending. And you simply can't leave a blog pending, now can you, so here it is ....

Saturday was big 'sleep in' day. We had two breakfasts - one at 5:30 am and the second at 8:30 am. Snacks ensued during the morning, which otherwise proved to be quite uneventful.

Jenny and Leon spent the afternoon cleaning, washing, and clearing things out and away, and it was our pleasure to sit back and watch it all happen. Then, as expected, we went off for our walk and met a few more friends along the way - Saturday is definitely when every man and his dog goes walking. Just as well for us because we love scurrying along and then stopping to chat with anyone who passes us by.

That evening, we were alone for a while, during which time Mojo and I made plans for the return home. We knew Mum was landing in Winnipeg around noon the next day, and we wanted to be ready.

So Sunday meant no sleep in for anyone. We made sure those lazy bones were up bright and early because we wanted breakfast as soon as humanly possible before a nice long last-time-around-the-neighbourhood walk. And then we simply waited at the Retreat for Mum to arrive ... which she did via the same route we took when we arrived here 15 days ago!

Oh, and what a joyful reunion it was, complete with lots of leaping and barking and crazy running around. But here's the thing.

Yes, it was fun to stay at Rover's Retreat again. Yes, it was great to see Mum again. Yes, it was wonderful to finally head back home where we truly belong. All of that fantastic, but the best was still to come - the reception we got from Harley and Copper who raced to the side fence and intently watched us reacquaint ourselves with our home, sweet home. Gosh, we missed you guys - thanks for remembering us!

So there you have it. Another chapter closed. And as they say, been there done that - again!

Signing off,

Tika and Mojo xx
