Day Off
It's raining. I decided no galleries today.
It was cloudy/sunny this morning but it soon turned into heavy rain.
Teddy departed and his mom brought us 2 mugs as a present from her trip. How nice to think of us. Coffee will be brimming from them tomorrow. They are nice thick ones so I imagine they will hold the heat well. It's a necessary thing in this house. I have mugs that are so thin that the coffee needs to be topped up constantly to keep it warm. Why? I pour a cup, we feed the dogs and then its cold. I top it up, we take the dogs out, its cold and I top it up again. Then we clean the dishes, answer the door and I top it up again. I know wait until you are done and then make coffee but then grooming begins.
It is so funny what we appreciate. A thick mug, coffee that wakes you up and tastes good (yes we like it black) and then when you do get to go out and sit on the deck you have dogs jumping all over you and you wonder how people do it when its so quiet.
I need the down time but not without dogs. I can't imagine. Plus can you imagine the kisses I get each morning? It's wonderful. Then when we go to bed each gives you a kiss, a snuggle, a play session so that 10pm bedtime turns into 11 or 1130. It's a dawg life!

Yes, It's a Dawg's Life, and we wouldn't want it any other way! Oh how they bring joy to our lives.
Murphy's not a smuggler or kisser with me but hopefully as she gets older that will change. Must be such a treat to snuggle all your dawgs!!
Sherry: Spice is a lovee and a kisser. Saffron not so much but now she is kissing and snuggling. Maybe cause I just do it as if she does and she's finally given in. heh
I'll give it a try :)
I absolutely agree. They know exactly when you need a snuggle. Although if Rusty decides no kisses he turns his head away and no pleading will help. However he reallly lets us know how happy he is to see us. He has changed our household. Darlah I end up drinking my coffee cold too and my day doesn't come close to your busy day!
Well, there's hope yet. This morning I slept in and woke up to a shower of kisses on my face saying let's go! Hopefully cuddles will follow at some point. She just wiggles and squirms if I try.
