Willows Work

I was feeling a little achy today. I thought to myself. Self you are house sitting up here. Everyone is out of town who's to say that you couldn't take a long hot shower and get into some comfortable PJ's. Make a hot cup of tea and curl up with a good mystery novel. It's only three o'clock in the... Sign in to see full entry.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day. I feel bad that the animals I'm sitting with are going to be without their families today. I am going to get to go home and have dinner with my family. But I'll make sure that they get something a little extra special tonight. Sign in to see full entry.

I'm staying with a black lab named Molly for the Thanksgiving weekend. I may have blogged a few weeks ago when I was staying with her on her birthday. I absolutely love this dog.

My work is picking up. I am getting more recommendations all the time. I am starting to branch out from clients that knew me at my old job. That is good it means my name is getting out there.

After years of fighting it I gave up and became ordained. Now I'm not about to compare myself to all of those who went studied for years and spent so much learning about how to carry out the responsibilities of the position. But even when I was a child I had this constant nudging going on. I wanted... Sign in to see full entry.

I am starting to get more work. I have some jobs set for march of next year already. I'm hoping that I can start scheduling out a few months ahead that would give me a little security. I wish I could get some more jobs that don't involve spending the night. I can only stay at one place at a time but... Sign in to see full entry.

If you have read my blog The Animals to whom I belong you will know about my awful horse experience at the fair. As it so happened I had a house sitting job that night. In past blogs I have told you about Gus, the yellow lab who stationed himself by me at work when my back went out and wouldn't... Sign in to see full entry.
