Hello everyone and welcome back to that episode of Middleground.

I'm Caroline and today is a solo episode with Mois.

Joe is actually not with me today because the unfortunate happened and my boyfriend got COVID this week. So that has been

happening. We have been in quarantine. We both feel fine. I think I have it at the moment, but

not 100% sure because we can't find a test for me. but I have very, very, very mild symptoms, like

extremely mild. I just feel a little off. He had worse symptoms than me and he tested positive.

So that's why Joe and I are not together at this episode, but that is okay because you guys have requested this episode quite a bit.

All you dog moms out there for the most part. So I'm going to be talking all things dog momming,

all things Frankie, all things her training and everything. Just a little puppy update and how life

has been since we got her. So before I dive into today's episode, of course,

I'm going to do my Grondy Moment. And I think my Grondy Moment is, um, let's see, I've been

home for the past like six days just because of quarantine and stuff. And honestly, I feel really

blessed that we are both vaccinated and we both have very, very mild symptoms. And honestly, I feel really blessed that we are both vaccinated and we both have very,

very mild symptoms. And I'm also very thankful that we haven't been around a lot of people,

especially Chris before he got it, especially people that are more susceptible to COVID,

including my grandma and Gardner and, you know, all of that.

So I think that's my grounding moment is just being thankful for our bodies and being able to

fight COVID at this time because I know for a lot of people, they have lost people.

And I don't think I've ever said this on the podcast, but my uncle actually passed of COVID this past Thanksgiving.

And it's just horrible.

And if you are someone that has lost someone, I really feel for you.

I know how it feels.
