An Unexpected Day!

Leave a reply

Don’t I look good? Miss Penny speaking, a day at the spa, that’s what Susan calls it, more like a day in the torture chamber. Susan says I’m being dramatic. Maybe I am, but it was a challenging day. First there was a car ride to Rose’s, and get this… when I arrived Preston the big lab who belongs to Frank’s family in Stittsville, was sucking up to Pierre. What’s he doing here? I asked. His family have gone away to Italy. I feel sorry that they have abandoned him but he’s nuzzling in on my territory and I can tell Pierre’s affections are divided. I’m the princess here and I need more than half. I guess I can share for a while. Susan went off with Rose and when they got back, they then took me to the groomers. The nice thing about Pet Agree in Kanata is all the other dogs and look at me I am beautiful. By the time we got home I was exhausted. I’ve no idea what Susan is doing in the writing world, I’m too tired to care today. I think she’s working on a new title and new cover for the second edition of Save Some for Me.

Miss Penny’s Photo Gallery!

Leave a reply

It is too hot to think, Miss Penny speaking, so for this weeks blog I thought I’d do a photo gallery of me. Starting with yesterday when Susan set up her summer office on the balcony. I’m snoozing in my bed, giving Susan a nod of approval as she moves the plants and chairs from one place to the other. It must be a people thing because everything finished up where it started.

Bones – Episode 2

Leave a reply

Do you like the title? Miss Penny Speaking, I think Susan’s writing talent is rubbing off on me as the bone story continues. It is summer and hot, very hot, so Susan and I work on the balcony, nine stories high with a gorgeous view of the Ottawa River and a lovely breeze. My bone is a Milkbone, doggy biscuits in the shape of a bone and just my size. I can take them out on the balcony, except there’s a big step and I can’t jump with it on my mouth without dropping it. So, I look cute and wag my happy tail, see the video, and Susan picks me up, but I drop the bone, anyway. It’s times like this that I realize I’m more person than dog. If that is true, then why doesn’t Susan eat Milkbones?  Not sure what Susan has been doing all week, there’s only one new announcement, but here’s one from me my first video. Cute & Happy Dog

Birthdays on Fire!

Leave a reply

Birthdays, Miss Penny speaking, I keep hearing that word. Whatever this birthdays thing is, it seems I’m ignored. Hum… I immediately don’t like birthdays. It all started with Susan going out for Jonathan’s birthday, I was left at home—not good. A few days later we went to Rose’s, at least I was included. On that occasion everyone broke into song, out of tune I might add, and a yummy looking chocolate cake, which I’m not allowed to eat because it will make me sick; good try I think they just want it all to themselves…sigh! Believe it or not the cake was set on fire and pushed right under granddaughter Karoline’s nose. Everyone seemed happy, but it looked dangerous to me. Karoline took a deep breath and blew the fire out, thank goodness, smart girl. Then there were other birthday phone calls, Susan told me June was birthday month in our family, if that’s true, why don’t I have a birthday, I think Susan had a birthday because of all the cards and flowers and then yesterday I heard Granny Betty has had 99 birthdays, wow! Would someone tell me what is special about a birthday and why don’t I have one? Susan says I have to wait until August. What does that mean? It’s all too confusing for a little dog. I don’t think I like birthdays but we’ll see what happens in August. 

Susan, doesn’t have much to add today. She’s working on a second edition of her memoir Save Some for Me and finalizing the release of Prelude to Sophie’s War on YouTube Listen here., Check out Youtube for a free excerpt.

Down-Under, Boots & Spiders!

Leave a reply

I’m exhausted, Miss Penny speaking, we had visitors yesterday, lots of them. Now, I like visitors, but too many interfere with my napping. First Samantha and her mom Cathy came for breakfast. Sam lives in Australia, down-under, not sure where down-under is, it sounds like a strange place. Maybe that’s where Susan goes when she closes the bathroom door. I liked Samantha; she has a dog, actually I smelt two dogs—nice smell. Perhaps I can meet them one day; if I can find down-under. In the afternoon Jonathan, that’s Susan’s eldest and girlfriend Mireille came to visit. Jonathan has whopping big black boots, I like him he’s nice and gentle but those boots… one of these days they will swallow me up! I’m not kidding they are bigger than me. So, I keep my distance, wag my tail a lot, just to let him know I do like him. Susan says they are motorcycle boots for when he rides his Spyder. That doesn’t make sense spiders are little creatures. Oh well, some things I don’t understand—down-under and riding Spiders.

I’m Not Dirty!

Leave a reply

I’m not dirty! Miss Penny speaking. Susan plonked me in the bath today. She said I smelt like a dog. Now, that is an insult. I wasn’t ready for a bath because I was at the groomers only last week; in the middle of a thunderstorm. What a scary experience? It was a horror film. Most dogs, not me of course, are afraid of storms. Imagine the trembling, howling, whining and sheer panic in that tiny store. Now, there’s a doggie smell you want to avoid. Psst! The big dogs are the worst, oh boy do they carry on. I ignore them curl up in the crate and wait my turn. 

Susan’s giving me that look, she doesn’t believe me. I’ll change the subject and give you Susan’s news. As Susan’s assistant a reprimand is due here. Susan’s Reader Group News is not out yet and Episode 8 of The Blue Pendant is still waiting to be edited, so it’s not out as promised. And, a big hiccup: the release of Prelude to Sophie’s War is delayed until July. I guess Susan feels guilty because, as a peace offering she has recorded an excerpt on YouTube Click here to view. It’s quite good I think you’ll like it. So have a listen.

Three in a Bed!

Leave a reply

I survived the weekend without Susan, Miss Penny Speaking. It was tough, but I can take it. Psst… don’t tell Susan, I had a great time. Rose and Pierre have a little backyard, I can run in and out of without a leash. In the next yard was another little dog. How cool is that? And, we went for walks and I met hundreds of friendly dogs, perhaps not hundreds but there were a lot of new friends. Bedtime was a bit different. At home it’s just Susan and me. I ran upstairs, that’s neat, no stairs at home, Rose put me on the bed and we settled quite comfortably, then Pierre got in bed too—three in a bed—definitely warm and cosy, if a bit crowded. I was in the middle and had to wiggle and push my paws to get enough space. Rose and Pierre didn’t seem to mind although I noticed they were clinging to the edge of the mattress, muttering that they didn’t have much room. I used the sad tearful eyes, missing home, and they were fine. Susan picked me up on Sunday night, of course I was careful not to be too happy, but I was very happy and a little nervous she might leave again. So, that night I tried to sleep on top of Susan, making sure she could not get up and leave. Susan wasn’t too happy about that. I just used the sad eyes guilt trip. Susan says I’m talking too much, she has some messages for you.

Abandoned!

Leave a reply

I am shocked and traumatized!  Susan went away and left me… me… the princess! Miss Penny Speaking, I’m a bright dog, so I kinda got the idea something was going on. First I noticed, a tote being packed with a stack of notebooks and pens too many for one person. The next morning an empty suitcase case was put beside me on the bed; I was still snoozing. I opened one eye and thought What’s that doing there? Why is Susan standing at the closet door, sighing and muttering under her breath? Clothes were hauled out of the closet, inspected and either returned to the closet or thrown on me, well, the bed. But, it gets worse, my bed, blanket, toys, treats and kibble are packed in a big bag. Then I put two and two together, clothes plus suitcase plus my things meant we were going away. Oh, cool an adventure. And I was right; me, Susan and all the bags were put in the car, did I tell you I hate the car, but it’s okay today. Then, another treat we stopped at Rose and Pierre’s, but something odd happened they took my bags out of the car but Susan’s stuff did not appear in the hallway. You guessed it, Susan disappeared, the car drove off and left me behind; can you believe that? Rose gave me lots of cuddles and told me Susan was off to the Ottawa Independent Writers Retreat and Workshop in Westport and would be gone for a few days. Huh! See if I care! I lowered my head and made the best sad eyes yet and it worked more cuddles and treats and I settled in for the weekend.

Play and Away!

Leave a reply

No breaking news today: Noisy construction has delayed video recordings. But check out episode 7 of The Blue Pendant – Nothing is Fair in Love and War

Play & Away!

I love my walks, but I wish I could walk without my leash. Miss Penny speaking, I also like to play and being attached to Susan means I can’t run after birds and squirrels. I am sure they would like to play but I can’t get to them. Yesterday a cute rabbit ran by me, it took me by surprise and I almost choked, Susan said it was my fault for pulling, I say its animal cruelty. I only want to play with the rabbit. It’s been boring here. Susan spent all week formatting the new book and it’s ready for the Arc readers, whatever that is? Oh, Susan says it’s free advanced copy for feedback prior to the launch. Contact Susan this week if you’re interested as she’ll be away at the OIW Writers Retreat next weekend. WHAT! Susan away? I don’t like the sound of that. Where am I going? This is serious I don’t like being away from Susan. I think it’s rude not to tell me. I wonder if I’m going to Rose and Pierre’s house, that wouldn’t be too bad.

Aha! Cuddles

Leave a reply

Aha, cuddles! Miss Penny Speaking. When I’m not playing I am Susan’s assistant and I like to cuddle, so curling up with Susan while she writes, works well for me, I can supervise from this position. However, Susan’s not so keen, something about, it’s hard to type when I’m resting on her shoulder. I guess she needs to practise more, except she doesn’t and I get put in my bed. It does works when she is reading aloud. Reading aloud is all part of the writing process. I bet you didn’t know that; see I’m pretty smart. Once a book is finished and edited Susan reads it aloud, I get cuddles and a story. So, this has been a good week for cuddles. I have listened to Prelude to Sophie’s War from beginning to end and it is good. Sophie is a strong, determined woman, just like me. Well, sort of, I’m a dog and she’s a person. Although losing her father in a fire when she was only sixteen years old, left some nasty emotional scars. I don’t remember my father and I don’t have scars; it must be a people thing. That’s it for today, look out for Susan’s Reader Groups News next week. And, psst! I’ll let you into a secret… Susan has recorded a reading from Prelude to Sophie’s War due for release next week.
