Good Morning my Precious Keonhee 🥰
Monday is here, how are you feeling? I know for many it is the start of the working week, but I still work on the weekend and I get the impression you do aswell, quite frequently. So can we call it the start of the week? Hmm I don't know 🤔 I hope you at least got some decent sleep?
The sun was rising when I woke up this morning, the colours were really pretty 😍
From Youngjo's vlive it seems you had a lay-in yesterday so you missed the snow falling! As soon as I heard it had been the first snow there, before the vlive, I had gone straight to my notes app and written this:
I guess that means no pictures? 😂 Was it still on the ground when you woke up? First snow is always so exciting, but it seems that like me, you missed it falling and just potentially saw what was left laying on the ground. When it starts turning to mush it is no longer as fun. I really love listening to the sound of snow crunching under my feet and it was too late to enjoy that for me. I hope you get to see the snow next time it falls 😁 I will be lucky if it snows here again before the end of January. It used to snow so much years ago. Then somewhere in the mid-90's it started falling less often and less heavy. No more white christmasses ☹
I noticed when you appeared briefly in the vlive that your very small amount of English seemed to just flow without any thought. You must be getting so good at it now 🥺 I am finding speaking the hardest part about Korean, simply because I don't get the chance to actively speak it except in my lessons. My old Korean teacher is back from her hiatus now, so hopefully in the New Year I can have 2 lessons a week and really get moving forward. I am so impatient with learning new things 😅 I really want to hear how good you have gotten with your English though! Maybe one day you will feel confident to speak it more regularly, then you will start getting the nagging for other languages.. Just do what I am doing and learn as many as possible 😂 I am of course joking. I think it's amazing you even have time to practice any language because you are so busy all the time.
I also have to say, you brief appearance on the vlive had me laughing, so thankyou for my first good laugh of the day. You are a funny guy 😊🥰
I took Skipper back to my friends this evening and met the new female Smooth Collie she has taken on. They are calling her 'Dizzy' and that made me think of you guys 😄 She is only 8 months old and a tri-colour like Tequila, but she hasn't had the best start. She is very nervous but apparently my natural magic with dogs worked and she was very happy to come and say hello to me. I reckon with the pack of collies she will be living with now, her confidence will start coming along very quickly.
Mouse seemed sad when I came home without Skipper. She was looking for him for a while. It was a bit sad actually because it reminded me of when I took my old Jack Russell Terrier and a year later, my German Shepherd, to the vets to be put down. Mouse grieved for over a month before she began returning to her old self. Anyone who says animals don't understand or don't have feelings, have never spent time with an animal they know well. I hope in the future we may be lucky enough to dog sit Skipper again, but it is doubtful. He has been a great play mate for Mouse though. Tequila isn't very playful with other dogs and Mouse is really respectful of that in general. So here are some of the last pictures and brief 'videos' of Mouse and Skipper together for you to enjoy 😊
While I was mostly puppy supervising today, I didn't get much of an opportunity to do anything else. I did manage to get half my Korean homework done this morning, and then this afternoon I finished the christmas picture inspired by my friend. I blame her, she and I can have some pretty random conversations but the initial idea started with her, I just filled in the gaps. Please greet 'Raptor Claus' 😆
It is a velociraptor Santa.. it has to be a little gruesome 😅 I deliberately went for a cartoon style to make sure the realism was absent. That would have been taking it a bit far 😂 I hope it gave you a laugh. I hope most of all you didn't find it gross 😅
When I walked Moses today I got soaked through. The rain was falling really heavily and I think I need to waterproof my coat again ☹ I had to get changed when I got home because of that. I hope I haven't caught a cold or anything. I am looking forward to a lay-in this Monday. I have no work until lunchtime so I am currently snuggled up in bed with a glass of wine, hoping it will help me sleep earlier. I have some vlives to catch up on so I will be watching those before I go to sleep. Not a bad way to spend an evening I think. The dog are, as usual, curled up on the bed with me. They have officially claimed my ex's half of the bed as their own, so even though I no longer share the bed.. I am still sharing it 😂 I can't complain, I finally get cuddles at bedtime 😁
I will say goodnight now though and wish you a wonderful day ahead. I hope you spend the day well, practice safely and drink lots of water. Wrap up warm aswell because it is really getting cold now. Please continue to be safe and healthy, lets look forward to next year being better for everyone.
All my Love
Emily 🥰🥰🥰
