Not that this means much to anybody else but me, cuz I’m such a huge social media nerd, but Kirstine Stewart, ex-CBC executive vice president english services and now managing director and head of Twitter Canada, favourited one of my tweets! It was an utter surprise and quite made my day.
The view from my back yard. Vancouver, you looking fiiiine this summer night.
I love this pic so much. It purr-fectly speaks of the difference between Charlie and Jonesy. Charlie is a total ham. Friendly, vocal and affectionate. Jonesy is reserved, dignified and quite often moody. You’d think she was a cat or something!
But we love them both and can’t imagine not having either in our lives.
Just thinking about hotels conjure up longings of travel for me, so it should be of no surprise, that I would want to check out the Grand Hotel: Redesigning Modern Life exhibition at the Vancouver Art Gallery.
The New Yorker in me loves that Vancouver Art Gallery has a by-donation day. In this case, Tuesday evenings between 5pm-9pm. So, Sean and I made it a date night with dinner at the cafe and then taking in the exhibit.
In areas that require a weed whacker, we purposely left the grass long. This is because Charlie loves to munch on the blades. And as we have not taken him outside very much, while the abscess heals, he went a little nuts when we did. And ended up wearing it all over his face. Little cutie.
Just cuz Charlie has a cone around his head, doesn’t mean he can’t enjoy the outdoors. Here he is chilling in our driveway. Notice the jaunty bow. Doesn’t this remind you of Gary Oldman’s costume from The Fifth Element? There are not enough stand up collars in today’s fashion.
This one warms my heart…Bless.
Charlie is such a trooper. So patient. So compliant when it comes to the dreaded cone of shame. So while he’s inside getting better, I thought i’d post some pictures of us outside, in our yard. Also, since this is our first summer at Casa de Sullichan, it’s quite the pleasant surprise to see what kind of perennial flowers (and bugs) have been popping up here.
