PUPPY...SITTING! 

 I just got back from two weeks of taking care of my sister’s puppy…Elizabeth (Lizzie) at her own home in Santa Cruz.  Lizzie is a RICH little puppy who lives in a condo on the cliffs above Santa Cruz beach.  And, to my dismay, I learned she doesn’t like the ocean; but, she loves the beach, so we got along famously.  I’m not sure they make puppies any cuter than this one!

Meet Lizzie!

So while my sister, Joanna, (above left) was on a cruise to the Mexican Riveria, I babysat  the puppy.  Mark, my husband, brought me over to her house, stayed one night, and then, came back about 9 days later to stay a couple of days before my sister’s return.  Mark crochets.  He made a sweater for Lizzie.  Isn’t it adorable!

Well, that’s all for now.  I’m looking forward to my sister’s next cruise…and Puppysitting!
