Nora is home
Jan. 6th, 2026 10:19 pmNora's rather gnarly scar is something to behold.

At one point this morning, I thought that I had locked her crate, but she managed to get out and pinniped herself ten feet across a room. She's a determined little thing. We're getting her a smaller soft crate that we can keep in one room, so that Sis and I don't have to carry the big one from one room to another. The pet stroller, even if we only use it in the house, has already been worth it from my point of view. Getting Nora from one end of the hallway into the family room is so much easier with wheels. Carrying the big crate on my own was what convinced Sis that we needed one for her room and one for the family room.
Nicky has taken up Nora's usual spot in the window at the front of the house, barking at anyone coming up the street. It's so unlike him. When he wasn't in the front window, he was outside her crate looking in at her.
I would also like to say two things:
a) thirty pounds, low to the ground and not cooperating, is heavier than I thought.
b) I didn't expect so much poop.
My goal for tomorrow is to be able to have a shower.
