So, we found a husky wandering the streets today. Collar, but no chip. Put a leash on him (easily, he was an absolute sweetie) and went for a walk around the neighborhood hoping that he was going to lead me to his home…but then after a while I realized that we were just walking in circles and he didn’t know where he was.
Put him in the backyard so I could do some work and help Liz with an audition, and then took him over to the nearest shelter, where they assured me nothing bad was going to happen to him. Either he’d be found by his owners, or he’d be fostered/adopted out. It was hard to drop him off there, he really didn’t want to go in. And he was really happy in our backyard, just laying in the shade. Never made a peep of a sound. Was giving me hugs within just an hour of knowing him. A very, VERY sweet dog. I hope he’s okay. I hope he’s with a good family soon. He’s a beautiful dog. And clearly used to be loved, because he would go up to any human with ease.
That was an intense way to start the day, and I’d really hoped I’d have a good writing day today. I didn’t. That took up the whole first half of my day, and I was wiped out after that. Took a two hour nap. Decided to do a little self care and go get a bottle of wine I’d been hearing about on the podcasts…Dolcetto. The one I found over at Total Wine was, specifically, a Dolcetto d’Alba, which apparently is a little lighter than the best…and it was. It tasted a lot like Chianti, actually, but less harsh. I really enjoyed it. It was good with my McDonald’s dinner 🙂
Sleep time, now. I really, really need to get in a couple good writing days. Finish this book. Night night.
