			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For several months now, Jean and I have taken Fluffy to <a href="http://www.thegroominroom.com/default.html"><strong>The Groomin Room</strong></a> at 7540 Frankford Avenue in the Mayfair section of NE Philadelphia.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-176" title="groominroom" src="http://michaelcarusopainting.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/groominroom-150x150.jpg" alt="groominroom" width="150" height="150" />Since our last experience with a vet which will remain nameless (<em>rip off</em>), we started a search for not only a new vet but also a groomer.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Unfortunately because of our previous experience, we are not really confident in finding a trustworthy Dr. for Fluffy at this time.  If you have a recommendation, please share with us.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The Groomin Room is Fantastic!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">When we pick her up, she is very calm and relaxed the entire ride home &#8211; unlike when we would pick her up from our previous office, she would wimper until she knew she was safe at home again.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Granted, the other place used drugs to bath and do whatever they needed, but in our opinion, it is also the care received that is in line with our love for our &#8216;baby&#8217;.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">In researching, we were looking for a groomer that did not use drugs and after just our first visit, we knew that not only will she come home bathed and smelling pretty, but also clean &amp; sober.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">What a difference!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This upcoming weekend, my girlfriend and <strong><a href="http://michaelcarusopainting.com/">Caruso Painting&#8217;s</a></strong> Office Manager, <a href="http://candleretirementplan.com/blog/"><strong>Jean Patton</strong></a>, will begin her woodworking class at the <strong><a href="http://www.philadelphiafurnitureworkshop.com/">Philadelphia Furniture Workshop</a></strong> woodworking school.</p>
<p>Jean has always been interested in work that included creativity and physical involvement including joining me many times on some of Caruso Painting&#8217;s residential and commercial jobs.  She is a rather great painter, if I may say so myself.</p>
<p>She never did need much direction on my part.  She is an independently motivated, natural, creative person and an exceptional asset to our team.</p>
