Never let it be said we don't know how to move into a new neighborhood with a bang. It hardly matters that it was July 4 weekend. We don't need fireworks.
After executing the excruciating move I wrote about last week and driving the final nail into that coffin, I switched into dutiful daughter mode and jumped on a plane to New York for an overdue visit with my mother. After news of the thousands of canceled flights over the holiday weekend I knew trying to fly was risky, but all went surprisingly smoothly — until I was settled in an Uber for the drive to Bronxville and my phone rang. It was my husband, Scott, obviously making sure I was safe on the ground and all had gone well. He's so thoughtful.
Wonderful story! We also had a dog that was an escape artist! He was a black Lab tgat eventually grew to 9 feet long from tip of nose to tip of tail and weighed 160 pounds! He didn’t “escape” to get into trouble….he just wanted to make “frens” and sought out every dog in a two mile area!
Please keep us updated on your four little(?) felons! Many of us can relate!
I laughed out loud at the dog officer's comments about doggy Disneyland and the thought of the homeowner finding Melvin on their bed. Good luck with the pack and the move and thank you for the laughs.
