The First Quiet Day Alone Since We Lost Kira

Is he going to do it? Are you going to make the leap? Do it! Do it! You can do it! You can do it! Can you do it? Yeah! Oh, I got it. You can use my clip. That was pretty good. It's a wonderful, beautiful morning, Audience. Apparently we're out here watching the squirrels race around on Squirrel Highway this morning. Dan's leaving this morning. Yeah, but I want to try to jump. I was going to say that was a pretty good leap. Like, and I'm at this angle. If I come over this way, you guys can actually see the space between those trees. Squirrel Highway got a little bit less after the ice storm. Oh, yeah. So there's the space between these two trees is just a little bit less. The branches, some of the branches broke off. Yep, yep. That was a pretty good jump, though. Come on, Al. I got to take Dan to the airport. Want to go to the airport? Yeah. Dan, Dan, you want to go to the airport, Dan? Off I go. Off I go. Back to the airport. Jump down Detroit and off to L.A. A little bit of weather sprinkled in there, but always, always something. Yeah, you'll get there. It'll be always something. I think I've been here for... Yeah, 11 or 13, something like that. Yeah, a lot. Yeah, a lot. Almost two weeks ago. A lot of days. I spent over a month here in the last three months, I think. Yeah. Well, there has been mass chaos happening, so you know. Right. It seems to me when I show up too. Well, no, because you showed up the one time after the mass chaos. This time you showed up in the middle of it. So yeah fun but not fun. That's how it goes. Yeah it's life. Also I did read all the kind comments you left for me on the videos. Thank you so much. I do love what I do and yes it's very hard to edit these videos but I do it for all of us. It's hard to watch them too. It's hard. It's hard to play back. It's hard to sit on the couch next to you and kind of just turn the laptop towards me a little bit and just kind of edit but I do really appreciate it and I do I mean obviously you can see I do I do love what I do. It's a lot, it's a lot of fun but these are the Yeah, yeah, these are a lot of hard times. And if you want to come follow me over at RFSDan, I do livestreams, I do fun stuff. We're looking for happy, positive people to fill the community over there. So it's another way. I hang out over there too, so you guys should come hang out. Come check me out on Instagram and on YouTube. It is a lot of fun. We'll put links down below. Eleanor is seriously back there hunting for squirrels. She's going everywhere that they've walked and sniffed. You know what she hasn't done since she's been out here? Gone to the potty. What's the fate of the leaf pile? If it dries up again, we might do it again and let her play in it some more, if it dries up again. If not, Jamie will suck them up a little bit later and they'll end up in the mulch pile. The pile from the front yard, he had this big thing and it was like a yard vacuum. Yeah, I told him, I'm like, Dan's going to think that's pretty cool. I was peeking out the window, it was early in the morning and I was peeking out the window like a dog and watching him just... He's vacuuming the leaves. That was pretty entertaining. I got him that a couple years ago. It works out pretty good because that has a blade in it and it like mulches them down to nothing. Oh, okay. Yeah. And then we take them out to the house or Greg's house and I go to a mulch pile. Yeah, I dump big batches of fall all over the place at that other house. Yep. Eleanor, we got places to go. She's taking her time. Thank you. Ready to come in finally? I know the grass is wet. Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew. High step that wet grass. Come on. You can do it. You got, you got, but okay. Well, you'll have to learn how to do that. She thinks she's going to. Hi. Boop! You think you're going to? You're not going to. No, she gets, because it's me. Yeah. Go say bye to a deer. You gotta, you gotta give snuggles. You gotta go snuggle. Oh, she's like, oh, hi dad. You did. He's like, yeah, but mom's gonna leave me. I'm gonna have a fit. Yeah, that's what's gonna happen. She's not gonna be happy. She's gotta go steal it. Steal the snuggle. That's a mis-jump. The settler issued that. At her, when she decides? She was outside. You did give her all the biscuits. That's what I'm saying. Eleanor's like, I'm not sad. I got all the biscuits. We did give her a lot of cookies. She has gotten a lot of cookies, but I mean, she, she could use them. She's pretty skinny. She's like, it's mom. Yep, it's me. It's me. I love you too, sweetheart. The lid fell in but also Jamie said at 8 30 this morning the squirrels were here eating it. Oh nice. I'll see if we can find it on the camera. Yes. But yeah, they ate this whole corner over here and the lid fell in. Well they hung on. Yeah, yep, they sure did and they're feeding the squirrels now so they're happy. Look, it's a little tiny baby airport. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. That, will you get in with the stick? That's a good question. That used to be the airport. Is that the one from Die Hard? Yes. Well, no, I think there was one even before that. They basically used our runway for Die Hard. Die Hard 2. The one thing that Alpena can say, well, we were also on the home improvement show. He got strapped, trapped at the Alpena airport. That one? Yeah, that would have been that one. All right. Let's see if they'll let you take your stick. All right. Well, in case you were wondering, they did not let Dan take the hockey So I'm taking it back home with me. Napping? I don't know how you're napping. Our landscape is changing again over this way. Our neighbor's getting a couple of trees cut down out of the yard way over there. Go and check that out a little bit later. Dumped Dan off at the airport. He already messaged me that he made it to his plane in Detroit and he's already in the air on his way back to California. Can you hear him, Micah? I can see the trees that are cutting through the the window but they're like right there oh yeah I can see the red They're taking a couple of trees down, huh? Yeah, so it's the yellow house. You can see like the red and the guy's going up the thing right now. Yeah. He's way up there in the tree. See him? That could be at the neighbor's house. Yeah, I couldn't tell which house it was, but... He's running around. There's like four trucks parked on the road over there. Taking down some trees. Am I taking photos of you next to flowers? Who sent these flowers? Was that Jacob that sent these flowers? These ones are very pretty too, huh? Can you guys tell that I have a treat in my hand? Yeah, good stuff? Yeah, I know good stuff. Weird, I took pictures of the flowers that people sent when we lost Memphis, but I put each dog on one side, so I figured I better take pictures of this flower, even though there's only you. It's only you. These are really pretty though and they smell really good. Thank you Jacob for sending us some Well, yesterday was a little crazy, wasn't it? Yeah, it's very clearly the next day. After all those days of Dan being here, he did go home yesterday. He got here on the 23rd, but he left his house on the 22nd of October. He came in, we took Kira to the vet that morning and then we took her back to the vet at one o'clock to see Dr. Ryan and then the next day we took her to the emergency vet twice and then the next day we drove all the way to Detroit and then the next day we lost her. That's how the first few days of his trip went and there is very little footage from any of it because we were in straight up, you know, we have to figure out what's going on mode. That's why you guys didn't really see Much of anything from those couple of days, it all happened so fast. There was so much going on. So yesterday was the first day that Jamie and I were really by ourselves. Dan's been here since we lost Kira. And you guys saw, we vlogged a little bit, but... Pretty much after he left I think Jamie fell asleep on the couch. I went and started getting some work done packing some orders calendars and coloring books and things like that. Speaking of calendars and coloring books are available. I know people are already asking are we going to do a Kira coloring book? Yes. I don't want to but yes. Are we going to do a Kira plushie? Yes. Again I don't want to but yes we will. It's just it's not fair. It's not fair. Life isn't fair. In case you don't know, um, blah. But yes, of course we're going to be doing those things for Kira as well. I'm also working on some new enamel pins that I was actually working on before Memphis. He's been passed away and I wanted to have them ready for Novi and then Memphis passed away and then I was going to have them ready for Christmas and now Kira passed away. So there will be some new pins coming as well. We also have some new 3D print things that we're working on. For the holidays as well and of those of you that keep asking if we're doing the Christmas card exchange which if you don't know happens on our main channel over at youtube.com slash gone to the snow dogs. Yeah I guess I'm doing it again this year. I had thought about retiring it but yeah I'm gonna do that again this year too. So now we're on to the next day. The vlogs are weird. I get it. They're weird but we gotta keep going for this girl right? All for you girl. All for you. So we're going to go ahead and end today and start the next day.
