Lazy Sunday

Not a lot happening around here today. My friend Kim came over to visit. It is always good to catch up with her. She is on holidays at the moment so it was a very relaxing afternoon just sitting around chatting to her with the cricket on in the background. Australia won again in case you didn't know. Kim owns her own mobile dog grooming service, "Plush Puppies". That is how l meet her. When l stole my dog back from my ex-husband she needed to be clipped so Kim came to the rescue.

Bella dog is a cockaspanial, rather like a walking carpet. Wayne had not clipped her in over a year and she was having trouble walking because of the grass burs caught in her fur. Bella loves Kim and it is very apparent that Kim spoils Bella with doggy treats. Anyway, Kim and l have also become good friends. l understand how hard it is to run your own business. People expect so much more from you once they know that you own a business. Funny because really you are just an average person trying to earn a living doing something that you enjoy or that you are good at. Owning your own business tends to isolate you in a small town like Bendigo. Besides being a great dog groomer she is a lovely, down to earth young lady who is trying to save enough money to buy her own house so that she can move out of her parents house. She is very caring and l have a lot of time for her. Only trouble is that she works very hard and we do not often have lazy Sunday afternoons to just sit around and chat. Tomorrow we are going to Melbourne to have some retail therapy. Should be good fun.
