Helaine spoke to Stef a little while ago. They were on their way to the airport. Roxie took a pill and a half which hasn’t taken effect yet. Uh oh. Earlier Helaine saw Stef’s Chicago flight was the continuation of a Sydney/Los Angeles.
“It’s running an hour early,” she said.
It’s not quite that simple, because other than the flight number these seem like two totally separate flights. The Sydney/Los Angeles leg is aboard a 747. Los Angeles to Chicago is on an A320.
Why does United present it this way? Is it so they can claim ‘direct’ Australia/Chicago service? I don’t know.
In the meantime I’m hoping Roxie sleeps coast-to-coast.
I woke up this morning, turned on the TV and saw New Years celebrations from Australia. At the bottom of the screen it said, “Happy New Year Sydney.”
I came downstairs and took two quick shots. As usual Sydney is in the energy preservation mode.
Helaine (and by proxy Steffie) treat all animals like children. And, if the animal should be doing something wrong, that animal will be told – no matter where or when.
As I approached Sydney to take today’s picture, she was licking her paws. I would guess this is the dog equivalent of biting one’s nails. This is the only vaguely bad behavior I’ve seen from Sydney.
I wanted to take my daily photo of Sydney, so I moved behind her with my camera. Slowly, she turned her head to catch a glimpse of what was going on.
I went to search out Sydney for her daily beauty shot. I found her, but not in any of her normal spots.
As a cloud of dog fur fell off Sydney, I rubbed her back. I’ve never met a dog who didn’t crave this, including Sydney.
