Chloe

Chloe is a Cinnamon puppy. She seems to smile all the time much like Cinnamon. She was here for a bath and cut and play.

Shlomo is so happy the tv room is back. I think we all are!

What a wonderful day - high 80s - 31c. We got out all our items in the garage that needed a heave ho and then I swam and anyone who wanted to join did. There are no photos as Nathan was napping and Dennis was so trying to fix a broken tv stand that occurred when Nathan was painting. We may have to buy a new one when we can. Need something that fits a 65" tv so if you see something on sale locally, please let me know. Nathan also washed the curtains and they sort of shriveled up. I guess I need new curtains too. He is so trying not to open up the other room but tomorrow we will figure it out. I told him we will slowly condition him.

The baseboard repairs begin on Tuesday so that may kill the bank but must be done. It means I must stain a second coat tomorrow. I have a full day of grooming so I hope that doesn't have to be done after everyone goes to bed. This is killing me.

Nathan is sitting in the tv room as I type. It is done. Hooray Nathan - us newbies to this stuff conquer the - what did you do and how can we fix THAT. As Nathan says he is dangerous with tools but he may be fixing the pool house himself. We shall see.

Here is today's gallery.

Dennis tried using my mirrorless camera outside when it was pitch black. Works well but he has to practice holding the camera steady. He is really enjoying my camera. LOL  I am glad as he needs to learn.

I did get everyone brushed out but wasn't able to do so till tonight. Pool took my time during the day. I so apologize but wow we may not see this heat again till next year and this is my holiday. Nathan has a trip with his pals each winter. So, when he wants to shut the pool, I remind him of that. This is my holiday, dear!

Today, many of our own dogs went in as I did laps and Nathan napped. He earned the nap today as he had heavy stuff to take to the dump. Even Jessie gor soaked so now I have to do a huge raking of his coat. Felix was fascinated with the pool but his hair is so gorgerous, I didn't want to take him in. Carmen takes such great care of their hair. Interesting enough Felix and Misty play really well. Misty is so - I am here so she doesn't take no for an answer.

Now to make my list of grooming and chores for tomorrow. Think I will have a gin and tonic. Carmen and Max gave me aviator gin. I earned relax time tonight. So - till tomorrow.

You absolutely deserve to relax. But I don't really know when that happens. Enjoy the evening. Emmy Awards are on. I am too tired to watch but the beginning looked interesting.
