Fall is in the air

“but those who hope in Lord will renew their strength, they will soar on wings like eagles: they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” Isaiah 40:31
 
Do you ever have one of those nights where you can’t sleep you toss and turn and your mind just won’t shut off no matter how hard you try? So you get out of bed quietly get a cup of coffee and you go and sit and you keep thinking. It is 3 am and I have my cup of coffee in hand!  I have been told that I over think a lot and I am trying to work on that and its hard, but I think I am getting better… the past few months have been a good test for over thinking,  especially when you are pursuing your dream of starting your own business, stepping away from a job with a regular paycheck, you think of every possible thing that could go wrong but you have to have the faith that God is by your side and he will get you through it no matter how big or little the problem may be, God is good!
 Today would have been my dad’s 88th birthday, he passed away when I was 13 of cancer. I always wonder what my life would have been like if he had lived, and I am not sure it would have been much different. But I do know he would be proud of me no matter how my life had turned out and knowing that I am finally doing something that I love at the age of 47. I think he would have been extra proud. 😊So if you are thinking of trying something new or changing careers I say go for it! You will never know until you try!!

We have had a busy past month at Country Bark Boarding and a busier month ahead of us. We have had a lot of first time visitors and some returning to make their second visit with us which makes us happy!! More than anything we want your dog to feel safe and loved while staying with us.  Being a small kennel, we can only board a limited number at a time. This gives us the chance to get to know your dog and give them the attention they need while you are away.  Each dog has their own space so they are not stressed out by another dog being in their territory, we all know that each dog has their own personality and this is what makes them special! We want them to be able to maintain their individuality while staying with us. They say the first year of starting a business is to get established and I am grateful to everyone that has helped us in our first few months! It has been nothing but overwhelming!

If you need something to do over the next few weeks we would love for you to come join us at the Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday, September 20 from 12-1 for our ribbon cutting ceremony. We are looking forward to being a part of the Chamber and all they have to offer. We also will have a booth at the Autumn Street Fair downtown McMinnville on Saturday, October 7th.  We would love for you to stop by and see us!
Well my quiet time is about over and alarms will be going off soon, let’s all continue to pray for all those effected by these hurricanes, I just can’t imagine what they must be going through. 

Thanks for taking the time to read my post!
 
Hope everyone has a great start to the Fall Season!!!
