Happy Easter and chag Pesach samech

Good Friday and Passover is the start of the holiday season for many. May everyone survive it all. :-) 

Teddy sure runs around like he is a pup at times.

I learned of a dear friend that she has uterine cancer. From what I read, aggressive. I don't think I slept a wink last night thinking of her despite my belief that she will beat this. Life throws us curves. Many of you know her but its up to her to share, if and when she desires. I just hope her dogs give her mega comfort through this trying time. My thoughts are with her, her family and the dogs. 

The dogs really enjoyed this warm day. I am still grooming and in the gallery, you can tell who I brushed out so far and who is still on my list after supper. 

We have a date for the pool opening. It will happen sometime the week of the 22nd. That means it could be the 22nd. It could be the 29th. The sprinklers get turned on the 22nd. I guess its spring. We have much to clean up outside but I think it will wait till after the holiday visitors depart then we will get busy. We also have garage doors to replace. 

Tomorrow we head out to the Pet Expo show. 

As we fixed the nozzle down the sink, Dennis removed the p-trap and it appears he cracked it. So each time we do a laundry or wash a dog, it was running through the ceiling downstairs. Now we have a pan under it and I have to empty it each time it is used. Got to laugh. What next?

Cinnamon chewed half of Ali's head hair off so I had to hack the other side to balance it off. LOL Thank gad hair grows.

In the gallery, you will see Spicy messy as ever, then brushed up then messy again. That's a true Spice gal!

Ali's hair trying to get a ribbon. So no more ribbons. It is her baby so.... and she doesn't play like that with anyone else except her own. LOL

Oh yeah I get what you are saying - yes Stormy did that LOL. They only do it to each other

So nice for you that Spicy comes to visit along with her bro Cooper. The dogs all look like they are enjoying themselves.

Yeah not seeing her would have changed my mind about rehoming. Already have that with Fiona, and that is very difficult. People tell you that you are going to see them and then you don't. It's harder with the retired gals as you have years of a relationship with them. I am ever so glad that Anne and Russell bring both of them here. They are truly special people!

Happy Easter and Chag Pesach to everyone. 🐇🐣
