OMD! Growlmy is so late!
We want to thanks all of you pups and furmilies from the bottom of our hearts!
I was so woofingly full of puppylike joy this morning when the computer told us that I was a DDP.
Happy!!
Then I got all these comments in great abundance, my mail bos was loaded...when growlmy checked the email upon her return,there were 118 messgaes...of course they were not all for me, BOL!but comments and p-mails make me happy, too!
Happy Mail Getter!!
Thanks to all of you for the rosettes, gifts, and messages of congrats and encouragement.
Shaking a Paw In Thanks
Thanks to Cooper and his helpful pup crew for the nice pic/memento, too!

Growlmy will be officially starting her job on Monday, the 18th, but she has been to orientation and had to get uniforms, and do some other stuff to prepare for the job. She will be working as 'Certified Resident Care Associate' which is a nursing assistant job within a long term care setting...aka 'nursing home'. She will be on permanent 3 - 11 shifts, and will have to work alternate weekends.
A lot of slugging and awkward hours but these days one doesn't turn down a job. Perhaps later a day shift may open up...

Her only hope is that she will be able to get a few days off in November to be with her Aunt as she will be turning 92...hasn't been there at all since last November. Wow! She really doesn't mind working on holidays, or weekends, but will miss the travels that she had been able to do at her whim and fancy! BOL!

So while of course we are not saying goodbye, we are saying until next time!
Meanwhile...I have to show you my ego...how I feel about some things:
Happy JRT = In Charge JRT!!
And now that you are all in a giggle mode, here is one happier than ever JRT! Happy because I have such great and wonderfur furends, and I know that you all love to hear a good bark: WOOF!
Happy JRT = WOOF!
And I do promise to come back to woof here in my blog, and to sniff around in yours if I can.
Handshake & Promise to Come Back When I Can
Hugs!
Licks!
Wags!

Thanks, Fizzy!
Many long years ago, growlmy was working with veterans in a long term care facility, they were British and Canadian vets, but the services of thanks and gratitude for what they did/do are always the same!
