We no longer have babies in the house.

In the meantime, I give you this selection.

she's much better

The dog is getting well pretty fast. In fact, it seems as if she had no pain at all, and we had to send her back to the hotel to be taken care of because she just wanted to play around, jump up-and-down (which is not good considering she's all stitched up).

Way to go, Morgana!

and yet another (lighter) note

Please do check it out... I couldn't resist...

Another note

The dog has just undergone surgery. Things turned out just fine, and she's resting at the clinic. A really severe case of pyometra caused her to be castrated.

We'll get her back in about 10 days. Those who know me know I'm really not qualified to care for wounds and bandages.

spring has come


Oh, how I wish we had four seasons as we were supposed to. One at a time, throughout the twelve months of the year. This is not the case. For the last two weeks we had everything, from winter to summer, going through fall and spring, sometimes in one single day.

But Mother Nature knows best. And now we find clear signs of spring. Flowers are blooming all over the city. And best of all, agapanthus are coming to life all over. By far, my favorite flower.

This is the time that we can distract from the traffic admiring the colorful carpet that covers the neighborhood with its bright lilies in yellow, orange and red, iris in all shades of the pallet, and amazing huge red amaryllis (which I just found out are not amaryllis, but hippeastra). Unfortunately, sibipirunas have already lost their yellow stars (fairy dust for my kids when we walk to school).

I do hope the weather gets a little milder because the last two days were killing hot.
