Home At Last

After nearly three weeks away I have returned to NH. Just for the sake of one more adventure during this trip, DELTA (Don't Expect Luggage To Arrive) lost then found my suitcase with the majority of the clothes that I own. It feels like I have been gone much longer. Kansas was everything I hoped for & more in terms of learning, RC work experience, networking, deciding if this was a suitable career path, etc. It enhances your experience when working alongside people who have similar goals & passions in life. The RC does a lot of great work to provide immediate & long-term assistance to those affected by disasters.

Molly did great while I was away & added to her fan base immensely. She was able to win over the hearts of the family who watched her for me, their immediate & extended family members, countless friends...even an entire ward of a nursing home. Once she saw that I was there to pick her up, she stood right by the door waiting for me. I think she wanted to get home to her throne (aka plush comfy bed) more than anything but that's understandable once you lay on it. Now I have three weeks of belly rubs to catch up on...plus interest...and I know Molly has been keeping a running tally. As a well-trained dog owner I will find a way to make this up to her.

Molly missed you a lot though I'm sure she is too stubborn to admit it. I wonder where that came from :) Glad you are back & had a great time.

What is the belly rub tally now? She has you wrapped around her finger...make that paw. When you arm fell asleep last night I think it was time to stop! At least one of us found our calling in life. That would be working for the RC not serving Molly by the by.
