There are now TWO dogs in the Mallon household! Yikes! Last Sunday, one of my wonderful clients, Jackie, wrote me asking if we were interested in taking her new dog. She's one of my Facebook friends, so I had been commenting on her cute three month old pup who looked SO much like our Maggie! She works full time and had to crate Sam most of the day and wasn't able to spend enough time with him to train, etc. She knew I was home often and he could be out all day. It was a hard decision for her to make and we are honored that she asked us! :)
The ironic thing is that Maggie seemed kind of depressed during the day and just laid around and slept. She really needed a friend, but we wanted it to be the "right" friend at the right time. We didn't want to force it, so we figured that when it was time, it'd happen. Sammy was the name of our first lab who passed of epilepsy at five years old, so when Jackie said his name was Sam, that was it. LOL. She also said she'd send along his crate and take care of his next round of shots, so.... how could we refuse? He's a handful, but we love him and he keeps Mags very, very, VERY busy all day! I'll keep you up to date on his progress, training, etc. :)
The horrid storm that blew through this area Friday evening was probably one of the scariest storms I've been through. It lasted about 15 - 20 minutes but was INTENSE. We were lucky to have only lost phone and some cell service and not our power, unlike our poor friends from Alexandria and up into Maryland who did... and for DAYS. My prayers to all who were so horribly affected by the storm and to the families who lost loved ones. And, thanks to my understanding clients who had to reschedule since I didn't have a phone to use for phone sessions! We just got our service back last evening, so I'll be contacting you soon to reschedule.
Regarding my in-person sessions, I will be in the same office I am in now for another year. I didn't want it to work out that way, but I missed the "automatic renewal" date and they had me locked in for another year, so I couldn't do anything about it. So there's that. LOL.
For those of you asking, my next mediumship demo is July 28 and I'll be donating a percentage of the proceeds to Jackie's favorite animal rescue or shelter, so sign up! :) Sounds like it'll be a Pit Bull rescue again because Sammy is part Pit as Maggie is. We love our sweet pit bulls! They are awesome!
Hope you had a safe and happy Forth of July! Stay cool!
