Howie left today for New Jersery

As you all know, my daughter Jane raises labs. Today we delivered Howie to his new owner. It worked out great with my treatment being at 7:30 and we could meet him at McDonald's off Rt 80 at 8:30. Adam is a policeman, as most of the families are who have adopted this litter. He loved Howie's name so much, he decided to keep it. Just look at that face!

More good news with Philip. His appointment at Geisinger yesterday went very well and he doesn't need to return for another six months. He is doing great with the mob, keeping up well with all the chores and has even cleaned out his closets/drawers of old clothes and stuff I've been begging him to pitch for years! Miracles do happen.

I'm doing well, too. Some of the side effects have surfaced (sores in the mouth and lack of energy.) So reading and resting is what my days are like. I have been managing to get supper ready for the family on the good days. Am very grateful to have such a loving home to give me all I need, plus a puppy to hold. Thanks to all who have written. It means the world to me. Will try to keep up better with what's happening. Today the farrier is out shoeing etc the horses feet. Always something going on here at Wild Hair Acres. More later. Love to all. Mary

My friend just lost his lab of 12 years and I pointed him to Tin Beak Labradors because I had seen Howie's photo. He will be disappointed when I tell him that Howie's been adopted. Sorry that you're not feeling well but happy to hear about Philip's checkup. I think we're off to get a photo of Cheyenne and Santa tomorrow. Will send you a pic.
