* A gorgeous sunny day after a couple days of rain
* clean puppies!! Both Angus and Zoey had baths today : )
* Finding out that I’ll be training a hyena, a capuchin monkey, a golden eagle and an Indian crested porcupine!
* new animals at the zoo
* getting to touch both a hippo and a rhino at the LA Zoo last weekend
* having a great workout at the gym
* getting emails from my family and friends (even though I’m horrible at writing back right away – I’m sorry!)
* snuggling with my puppies after a long day
* being right where I am, right now
* and of course, being in love : )
Today is my only day off until at least mid-April so I’ve been cleaning, doing laundry and heading off to the gym now. I’ll be back later, hopefully, with a longer post. That is, if I can get all 7 papers that I have to write for school done…..
Happy Sunday!
Always glad to know you are happy. I’m pleased that you are focusing on the positive side of life Jess. I believe an attitude like this makes us enjoy our short lives and helps us see how lovely our world actually is.
Can you believe it snowed here early this morning? Even though it is heavy and wet and cold, it really is beautiful and it has been melting now for hours. I am glad you are in a warm place doing what you love best, though you are missing all my deer and feral cat activity.
Britt was over with the twins Wednesday so of course we talked about you. You can hardly wait for you to meet Tatum and Ashton. They are darlings, and both really good babies. Ashton has started laughing out loud and it sounds adorable and melts your heart. Tatum can hold her head up and roll over. Poor Ashton has a much heavier head so he will take a little longer to develop a strong neck. They both smile and talk when you speak to them, and they follow Britt with their eyes. They are adorable and you will love them as much as we do. Well, maybe not quite as much as Britt. She is as excited as we are about your upcoming trip home.
Have you had any word about that yet? It will be wonderful if you can be here when Alix and her family are here. Another family reunion on the horizon maybe. I’ll keep my fingers crossed.
Glad you are doing so well down there on your own Sweetie. We sure miss you and Angus and Zoey too. Lots.

Hi Jess,
It sure was great to see your latest blog entry today. I now feel connected to you again in an internet kind of way. You have told us so much here that we didn’t know. Your wee piggies are darling and very pretty, quite different colourings than all the others you had here at home.
Angus and Zoey look great ib their summer garb. I’ve been thinking about havingn Rusty shaved bu7t worry it will stress her out too much. I don’t want to give her a heart attack! She still has a heart murmur but thankfully it hasn’t been a problem.
We’re very proud of you Sweetie and are thankful you are in a good place, learning a lot, and are especially delighted that you are truly happy. You have turned a love of animals into a career.
Your ‘job’ will never be ‘work’. It doesn’t get any better than this.
I have to close now. Your father is finally back from setting up the food show and he needs to sleep. My pecking here needs to end.
Love you, and miss you,
Mum
