Complaints

Can you imagine in this day complaining about rain? Really - I want to but there are more things to worry about than Mother Nature. Some of the dogs embrace the rain. Some do not.

Here is the gallery.

I cleaned my laundryroom today. I went food shopping. Such an experience these days. I found chocolate cupcakes for Dennis. He was delighted.

I converted and took a background out of Murphy gal and pulled it into Cricut to cut. I shared it with Sherry. I am learning some photos are simply a biach to crop out the background especially with flying hair.

I got wet shopping - well standing in the long line as they only allowed 10 people at a time inside. You go in one door, you exit another and not till you are out will they let anyone else in. It was an experience. Sometimes I feel as if I am caught in a book and can't escape but then the dogs make me smile. I may clean under my sink tomorrow. I am not sure what I will do but groom for sure. I want the rain to stop before I start bathing dogs. It's the intelligent thing to do - wait.

I am watching a tv show on amazon sparingly called Good Omens. It's an oldie 2019 but its a good watch. Dennis gave me a list of what I should be watching. LOL I have not turned on the tv today. He says I must watch Sneaky Pete next. Ok...

It is strange to not have the routine of Kat. I am at least not crying my head off - which I was. I have yet to wash and take out his beds. Time...

I should assess my dog shampoo and conditioner and organize it better - refill bottles etc. Did say should.

I have a ritual at bed - check ears, clean around eyes, and the dogs get a small treat. They rush to say ME first especially Harlow. I just love the dogs.

The dogs are our saviours. And you have always told me they understand how we feel. I can see Rusty is clingy. Could it be because we are all home and always eating😇.

It is terrible out there on the streets. And some people are not nice. We should hang together but some people seem to be more rude than ever. What's the point? So much tragedy. I love those crazy dog cartoons that people send me. Makes me laugh. Keep smiling.

Forgot to mention, why don't you have the groceries come to you?
Like we had yesterday morning, 3 wild turkeys come up the street, walking on peoples lawns. My dogs went ballistic when they saw them. They are big, standing about a metre when fully walking upright.
Actually, I try to shop routinely around dinner time when most people are at home preparing and eating, less people and I prefer the smaller stores.

The dogs look like they are enjoying being outdoors regardless of the weather.

Darlah I think about you and Katsura often. He was a cornerstone of Talemaker and will be forever missed.

Margaret - that is Sky. After a nameless dog chewed off her top knot, we are in growing out stage.

Kathy: Today was the day I lost Ms, Risa. Kat was such a fixture in the hall to anyone that came that I feel it always.

Ronnie: How are you? I know this is tough. I went outside today and the air felt good. The dogs were sniffing the air. Maybe they are trying to tell us something.

Dorothy: When I tried they are a week behind in delivery. Now M&Ms meat shop if all you wanted was frozen has a ton of stock. It is strange what is out and what is in stock and not the same from store to store. i wonder how many go from store to store?
