Really Warm Springish Day

Well the day was another wonderful one and then they say snow is coming. I have to laugh. As Dennis has had snow on his birthday (April 17th) and I certainly have snow more often than not on my birthday (March 24th) I believe we are still in for white and wet times.

Here is today's gallery.

So a spring tease? I imagine it is. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it's not over yet though I sorely wish it was. I want to be in our pool with the dogs getting a sun tan, LOL. Besides I have pups to get acquainted with the pool. It will be fun in say 2 months from now. Can I make it till then? I am trying.

Teddy has arrived today. Rocky was here for play and a bath/trim. Cody heads home today. 

The dogs are having a GREAT amount of fun. I imagine they too think spring is here. I hate to burst their bubble too but it is fun while it lasts. Have to grasp every good moment you can. 

I have been slacking. I have been grooming but now I have to do the rest. 

I have a 25 year old mattress. I ache each time I sleep in it (nightly) so when the daughter said she was buying a new mattress (hers is 2 years old) I said I would GLADLY take her throw out mattress. I don't care if its the lowest end mattress, it has to be better than a 25 year old one that each time you rotate it the spots are getting few where you have a semblance of normalcy if a mattress can be normal. hahahaha

So, I am excited as the daughter is going to try to get it into her van and deliver it. I suspect the dogs will also be excited too. I will fill you in as I imagine they will roll and ahh in it - or at least I think they will. Stay tuned. 

PS: Thank you to Shannon and Sherry for donating dog items for the baskets for specialty time. Even if its one thing, we will gladly accept it. Doesn't matter what size etc

Finally catching up on your blog, love the photo 6156, so precious! Not sure who is in the main photo, Roxy maybe? Beautiful! Yes, spring seems to be here, for now. I’ll take it regardless of what’s ahead.

The photo above is Teddy. This is him as a puppy

Teddy is a handsome boy.
Nice that the dogs enjoyed a taste of Spring Weather.

Darlah please let me know about Specialty Time. I would love to donate. I need to know by when? And can you tell me a little about it. I have been a little slack in my reading the blogs. I seem to be falling into bed these days. I miss a lot on your blogs. Love the pic above. Is that Leti?
