Ok Some Slacking

I decided a no photo day today. I am washing dogs for the weekend and teaching Nathan how to do a show wash and dry on Adele as she goes to the national next week.

Slacking you say? Well, I swam for a very short bit. We had visitors. We did walks and well we laid around. I didn't click the camera. I didn't do a thing. Well not 'nothing' as I did groom. Now I get to teach Nathan how to wash. You see he has to know how as I am not at the national and well he needs to know how. :-) It's time. Paula usually does it for him but she will have 3 dogs to wash so he is on his own.

Trigger and Cali have been playing nonstop and well Levon is totally snookered and in love with Adele. I haven't figured it out but he must be with her always and well Sadie is just a crazy, lets have fun no matter what - is it time to party gal. So, its fun... just know that!

So sad you cannot come with Nathan. I almost asked if Nathan needed a place to stay but my husband says the basement is too messy with all my craft stuff. We are not far from St. Paul's (about 15 min.) and I do have a grooming table. Looking forward to meeting people I have meet online. Hope you do not work too hard and get in lots more swimming time.

Good for Nathan, learning something new is always a good thing. Best wishes to Adele and Nathan at the show.

Good for you for allowing yourself some slacking.....Nathan will be fine although he will miss you, no doubt. It is a big show. Wishing him and Adele all the best.

We will be thinking of all of you at the picnic Saturday. Sorry we cannot attend. Coop will miss his buddies!

Marilyne: If you can believe Nathan will be gone a week as they are driving. He will have a grooming table or two. :-) Getting old missing all these fun things - I tell you.

We will miss the Coops and his humans too!
