Wet

This is Mickey. He is Stone's brother - the only black and white in that litter. He was here for a bath and a trim. He is such a good natured soul. I really enjoyed having him here.

Here is a small gallery.

The dogs don't want to go outside so we are changing pads frequently. When they do go out, they get soaked. 

The dogs got some extra turkey tonight. They were in heaven. I tried to do some mass sits, down etc. It was a riot. 

Everything is drying out. The gopro is dead. One lens is still having a heart attack. That spill really did some damage. Printer still has issues and Dennis has this grand idea he can fix it. I need it this week so I will give him till Monday night. I did all the troubleshooting that HP said to. Oh well.... It is frustrating to lose so many big ticket items. It's all on me.

I groomed quite a bit today due to the dogs going outside and my usual schedule. Tomorrow is mega busy. We are supposed to be doing a drop in at Whos Walking Who tomorrow night with Sage and Ali. Nathan is in bed sick we think due to iritis meds as they are having him blitz it 6 times a day. Poor guy. Hoping he is better tomorrow. 

May tomorrow be sunny - please! May Nathan be well! May I get tons of snuggles tonight!

Just read your blog and I wish all your "mays" come true, especially Nathan's health. Then the snuggles, then the sun. I think snuggles are better than sun xoxo

Snuggles are better than sun but in order to have time for snuggles you need less rain or you are just grooming. LOL Then I have to get them at bedtime.

I am sure Nathan will be okay. He gets to go to bed and sleep helps. I have too much on my plate and no one to take over so I work sick or not. No choice. The meds are just really doing a number on him - headaches etc and they always do when he has to do the eye meds 6 times a day. He does the meds in his eyes for 4 days 6 times, then 4 times for 5 days then 3 times for 6 days then 2 times for 6 days then 1 time for 6 days then 1/2 for 3 days. something like that so he is not doing well for almost a month. Less he takes though the more he can do. Then he sees the eye specialist again and they either extend the time or he is done. Last flare up it was 8 weeks. Issue is he still reads as he loves it so. He needs to rest the eye. Can't tell him that though. LOL

First, let’s hope Nathan recovers soon. Second, Mickey looked so much like Patches when he was young, and he is Radar’s brother as well.

Mass sits and downs must be a riot!
Hope Nathan recovers quickly!

Poor Nathan. I hope it takes the shortest time to heal. What about audio books?Seems to be the rage. I do understand though because I love to read. Thanks for the tip on the Turkey. I did the same and it turned out good. I think there is something wrong with my oven. It is only a year old but I don't think it stays at 325. I tent too. What a nice holiday this one is.

Mickey is beautiful.
