Chase Is On

Truffie played a great game of chase with the little ones today. It was a riot. Here is today's gallery. Not much as I am knocking out my to do list. I am down to #21 from 23. hahahaha

Today we had Raylan, Mac and Monty drop in to hang out. They are having such a great time!

Wish I had more photos but I seem to be the only one clicking and I have to to it between what I am doing.

French doors (both sets) are DONE. Dennis took off paint on the windows and well I had to play touchup today. That was an added bonus. It happens. They are now done as much as they will be done. Nathan was going to paint walls after repairing a few spots but I think I will be putting photos up to hide those spots till spring. Unless he starts and does it for a week from morning till night it is not happening and besides spring is better as we don't want lingering paint in the house with moms to be. 

Hope to see you at Woofstock. It's a meet at 930am this Saturday. Looks like so far the weather will cooperate. If you need directions you will see it on the ride side. We are bringing Saffron and either Spice or Ella. We haven't figured each one. We only like to bring two as it is easier to negotiate that way.

I am in the midst of doing my next project - my closet- and it won't get done today but maybe tomorrow. We shall see. I groom in-between so it slows me down. Why a closet? Well I can't find anything. Cooler weather is coming and due to pups I can't be spending time trying to find something to wear. I hate this job more than anything. Oh well. Back to it in a few minutes

Dogs are out back running like banshees with Dennis and Nathan. I hope I get relax time before bed. I have potentially 11 days till puppies. Oh my gad!

Murphy looks like she's having a blast! I miss her so much. Give her a big snuggle from me please :)

Nice to see Raylan, Mac & Monty again. Truffie looked like he was having a blast.
I love the photos with all the hair in motion.

Yeah, can't wait for Saturday. You brought spicy my first time at woofstock, without my own dog.nathan actually trusted me with her,although I wanted to just bring her home.

Nice to see Truff in action. Great photos of today's play. We won't go to Woofstock, too far for us, but will be thinking of all of you. A great week, weather wise, for sure!

Teddy has a particular nice topknot today :)

Like us humans, the dawgies get a renewed sense of energy when it cools down after a hot spell!
Yes, weather looks great for Woofstock, in fact, it's projected to be great for the next two weeks ... Let's keep our fingers crossed.
Darlah, PLEASE know I certainly don't expect you to respond to all, or even any, of my "requests". And, of course, you actually did - I know you can't help yourself - ;). i should look to lessen your load, not add to it!

I am on overload trying to get things done before pups. I did get the closet done. No clothes that I like but I haven't bought clothes in eons. At least it's all organized and summer clothes are away except for a few things. It only took 18 hours and I did touch up the door where Dennis nicked it from removing paint from the glass. Each pane needed a touch up. I also groomed my fool head off. Today was tough. I did a lot of work and each day will be like this till pups, I bet.

Teddy is hopeless. He's a play monkey so I do up his head and he ends up a mess. He will look good to go home as he won't have so many playing with him messing up his hair. heh

Monty and Raylan climbed into the recliner with me and cuddled in. I tried hard not to fall asleep.

Two baths tomorrow. Ziggy and Ozzie depart. What will I do without him making noise for his supper. hahaha Ozzie has had a total blast.

Murphy gets an extra hug and kiss. She will sleep well at home when she is done.

It's been a very busy day but a full day. Me and the dogs will be snoring. Nathan will be reading the ipad. :-)

Valerie looking forward to seeing you!

September 21, 2015 | Registered CommenterDarlah

Yes good to see the trio. They are here till tomorrow. Truffie is having a blast. He seems to come to life when we have cooler weather. He absolutely loves fall weather. It brings out his spirit.

September 22, 2015 | Registered CommenterDarlah

Darlah, that is so funny but true about Teddy. As soon as my mom does his ponytail, it's lopsided within an hour from all his playing and twirling and rolling.
