Last of the Cover

This blog is going to be short. I had too much to do day. 

Here is the gallery.

The pool cover is getting taken off tomorrow so that meant emptying the pool house. I did that with Dennis. We still have furniture to take out of the basement and cushions. I took out one cushion out thinking I would get some time to sit down. Yes, I am laughing.

Nathan took a nap. I did a ton of grooming (baths, cuts etc) including the Roxie. Nathan brushed out quite a few - thank you! I did laundry and more laundry. Then Dennis said I need to wash all the floors upstairs so I need you to do toilets, showers, bath tubs, counters and windows. Okay Dennis - so I just finished that. To say I am exhausted is an understatement. I am thankful he is washing the floors and vacuuming. I just so needed a day of semi relax. Oh well....

Tomorrow I get to send a part back to the states that I waited for 3 weeks for only to try to get the right one.

But the pool will be open and the warmer weather best come so the dogs and I can swim.

Nathan said the only reason he goes in the pool is due to me saying get in the pool so I can take photos. I said to him (with Sherry at the door), I will remind you of that.

It's been one of THOSE days. But the dogs played. They appreciate the warmth. They say rain coming again. I never got to pump the water off the cover so hoping they will vs. just dumping it in the pool. Good news I have time to clear out the pool if they do as warmth seems to be a far distance looking at that weather.  

I get to see Adele and River this week (have not seen them) as the daughter needs to wash them. There is that. Yes, I miss them. Got to see the daughter and grand daughters. They needed to pick up things so silver lining. 

Enough complaining. Dogs are fun. Everyone went home except Tenshi and Secret and Ty arrived. It's quiet. Two more hours till bedtime and snuggle time. 

I think I am too old for all this work.

Amazing photo of Murphy in flight. She was in a playful mood when we got home.
You and Nathan have such a wonderful relationship. It really is a joy to spend time with you. So much love in your home. Human and dog love.

That is Ms Roxie

Roxie is so regal. They are all beautiful. I wonder if Rusty would look like her if I let his hair grow? Oh well it won't happen. I love the way you trim Rusty.

It looks like spring cleaning at the Talemaker household. Love all the photos today. Everything seems running, playing and having the time of their life (except the humans whose hard at work). I do hope warm weather will come sooner rather then later so you can enjoy the pool!
