Here's a picture of a little scruffy ball of fur who has been making me, all of us, feel good. Actually, if I'm honest, he's been making me feel very tired.
Very early morning has seen me, steaming mug of tea in hand, standing in my crocs and dressing gown, bleary eyed in a freezing cold garden yawning while he....well, he chases twigs, pounces on leaves and tries to scramble up onto the veggie beds. Hmm.
Really, I should introduce him properly. His name is Paddington (Paddy for short) and he's a nine-week-old ball of fun (a shih-tzu). He is also Gardening Dog. I'm afraid he shall probably feature quite a lot on the blog, if he'll just stop occasionally so I can get a picture.
* Edited to add: Something else making me feel good today is being Blog of the Week here. A lovely write-up and a puppy. Wonderful ways to start the weekend.
