Good morning or good evening, wherever you may be. It is just past 1:00 a.m. in "The City."

You probably noticed that I didn't get around to blogging early yesterday morning. I was just too pooped to pop, so to speak. I didn't get to bed until late on Tuesday night after getting up early, so I opted not to blog.

Phew, not that I've got that out of the way, I can tell you what happened yesterday. It was the first day at her new home for Ginger, She is adorable. She and STWD have reached detente in a manner of speaking. I think that as time goes by, the two of them may not become as thick as thieves, but they will be able to coexist. That's all we can ask.

Speaking of Ginger and her big sister, I find that they are a perfect sandwich with me as the filling. Here are some pictures of the two of them on the couch with yours truly sandwiched in the middle, along with one of Ginger in Mary's soft chair that is located in her office. I think we have a case of cute overload.

We placed a call to the vet to get Ginger in tomorrow so that we can allay our concerns regarding her overall health following her recent surgery. We think she is fine, but as the neurotic pet parents that we are, we like to be safe.

I just finished watching the end of the game between the Dodgers and the Nats. The Dodgers won the game 4 - 3 and the series 3 - 2. The Dodgers come to the Friendly Confines to face the Cubs Saturday night @ 8:00 p.m. I feel good about the chances of the Cubs defeating the Dodgers.

We will be walking to the vet for Ginger's appointment later this morning. The time has yet to be determined as I am expecting a call from the vet's office, also later this morning.

I finished the book I started a few days ago. This one was entitled Among the Dead, written by Linda Castillo. This is another in my latest obsession with books that depict mysteries set in Amish country. Mary sent me down this wormhole last year and now I can't seem to get enough. I do have some detective thrillers on order from the library to keep my other obsessions going too.

The latest book for indexing has arrived from the publisher and I will now have to get to highlighting that one. My task is a scant 140 pages so it shouldn't take long, which will allow me to get back to my other reading pursuits/obsessions.

We are still learning Ginger's bathroom habits, so I am at the ready if she asks from her crate to go out. I sleep light, so I should be able to hear her.

I did get in some play time with the girls yesterday in preparation for the Irish Jam session on Saturday. We have taken the last few months off, so I am eager to get back to it.

We will be taking the morning safari with both of our fur babies this morning. By the time that the sun rises @ 7:56 a.m. the current temperature of 38° will have dropped to 36° under partly cloudy skies. Once the sun rises, the temperature is forecast to rise to 62° under sunny skies. The sun will set @ 7:04 this evening. Thanks for reading. Ciao.
