Cold Day

For our Jewish friends

Shanah tovah um'tukah - May you have a good and sweet new year.

This was Dennis day off so Nathan and I have been doing everything. It's been too cold and Dennis tells me I have to start repotting as it is going down to 1 this week. Really?

Thank you truly to Sue for sending blankets for the puppies. They arrived today. From England - wow - deepest appreciation. Gabriella also send treats for the dogs. We will use them in our find the treat game. Thank you truly! Elvis is moving clear across the country so they have been busy getting their home up for sale. they will be missed by us.

Here is the gallery.

I have to get back to organizing upstairs. I feel like I am moving but not moving. I guess everyone needs to do this once in awhile but not all at once. I have 4 more containers to fill hopefully tonight. We shall see.

I used a whitener on Murphy before she went home. Whitener is not just for whites but it lifts the colour without dyes. It makes apricots brighter and whites, whiter. You can use it on black and the black gets richer.

I hid a treat under a couch cushion today and Jesse found it pronto and took his nose and threw the pillow. Why can't I catch moments like this. Its so unfair not to have a built-in camera.

We had a fun day but now they come upstairs and watch me organize or hang out with Nathan or Dennis in the tv room. Best part of the day and they sure tell us it is time!

Hi Darlah, If you and Nathan think Zoey would be a good sister for Fitz I would be very interested in adopting him, instead of a puppy. Do they engage at all when she is there? I had asked Nathan about adopting Fitz when you first got him back but he said it was too soon , you needed to give him some time to adjust first,.
Thanks again for taking Zoey on Thursday and Friday. It was a very difficult time and you made it much easier for me not to be worring about my Zoey
The pictures you took of her were great as usual. I can never get her to stay still long enough.
Please let me know about FITZ....Susan

Happy New Year To you and Nathan and family and to all my Talemaker friends who celebrate the New Year. I am impressed with the whitener. Amazing.

I am curious about which whitener you are using.

Murphy looks amazing. Her coat looks beautiful!

I used Iv San Bernard Cristal Clean but you can use Chris Christensen's white on white for similar results. Iv San Bernard's stuff is quite pricey but really great quality.
