My Own Pemberley

After a leisurely stroll thru the countryside, viewing the neighboring estates and partaking of the verdure of their various landscapes, the Miss O'Connells retired back to Pemberley wherest they delighted in the beauty of their own estate's fauna and flora whilst reclining with a most interesting novel in their arboretum.

What really happened was that the Sweet Baboo & I took a walk thru the hood, where Shannon stopped to pee at every fourth house and then we came home & watered the flowers. After all this, I plopped my fat butt on the patio and read a few chapters of Jane Austen. It was very relaxing sitting on my freshly painted Adirondack chair in the privacy of our new patio, enjoying a good book, beautiful flowers and a wonderful breeze on a sunny afternoon. This is really our first Spring in quite a few years and we're loving it! If the Pistons weren't on TV tonight, this would be perfect weather to listen to the Tigers on the radio.

I also had to make a vet appointment for Baboo today. It's not easy finding a good Babooist. We've already been to one doctor, but I just didn't like the feel of the place, so I made an appt. at a new clinic for tomorrow. She'll have a female doctor this time, which I feel good about because she seems to have a better disposition with lady Babooists. We'll find out tomorrow!
