Morning cherries! Another Monday, another work week. Broke routine a bit this morning, well, actually, Miss Penny Lane broke routine! LOL. When I go on my morning walks, it's usually still dark out and everyone is snoozing away after breakfast. But today, Miss Penny pushed her way out the door with me. Without being asked either. So I came back inside and grabbed her leash. She made it farther than she has before and she even saw a friend! She saw "Sweet Pea" and her owner (they live behind us). Penny went about 3 blocks, then she whined and started wanting to go back, which we did. Boy was she excited to go home and see her sisters and Daddy! I figured Shelby might want to go too, so I grabbed her harnesh and she knew exactly what was up. She did good too, sniffing around and on her way home, she saw our neighbor from across the street. Shelby, too, went farther she usually does and even went 6 blocks until we turned around and headed home.
She was super stoked to come home and then I figured I'd try Jasmine. Usually they go together, but lately, its difficult with Jasmine's vision issues. But I wanted to give her a chance to TRY. Took us quite a while and she didn't go very far, but she got see our neighbor next door leave for work, so she was happy about that. I also didn't change our route, so she could *maybe* at least smell Shelby and Penny. We were back home rather quickly, but it's all good.
I've unloaded the dishwasher, got doggie blankets in the dryer. Still need to vacuum the living room and dust ceiling fans. I then contacted the Indiana State Library regarding my 4th gg marriage record. They are listed in the index, which is proof that a marriage record does exist. The lady who is assisting me with my DAR application is wanting the actual record in hopes that is shows the parents of my 4th great-grandmother. If so, then it'll link her to my 5th gg, which already link up to my 6th great grandfather. So basically their marriage record is what is holding things up. Hopefully I'll hear back from them by Wednesday - if not, I'll give them another call. They did say these requests usually take 2-3 days.
Anywho...I need to get started on work. A late start for me since I took 3 separate walks. None of them long enough, but I'm sure if you add them up on top of making sure they stay on track, was enough exercise. LOL.
Have a great day.
