The Blogs

Today, I must try to do blogs early = a no photo day as we have pups going to the vets. As it is late afternoon and by the time we are back, early evening, it is impossible to do so many blogs plus do all that I must before bedtime. So, this is a no gallery day and I will play catch-up tomorrow.

I am so going to miss the pups but its me that does all the work to prepare for them to depart and it is a lot of work. Plus I do all what I normally do. Last night I was doing dishes after 10pm. I woke up to dishes vs having them done when I woke up. I need to go on a strike but then it would just be left waiting. So, we plug along and do what we can when we can.

I so wish I had the pool.

This is last years garden soon to be this year's garden.

That is a gorgeous picture of your garden. Darlah it is so frustrating with the kitchen cleanup. I too, make sure everything is done so I won't wake up to a mess, but somehow it is always cluttered in the morning. I too need to go on strike. I am sure you will miss these beautiful puppies. :)

Ronnie: I have 8 bowls (2 piece) to clean that come with inserts plus 2 ceramics plus a mat that goes under each. We tend to have water everywhere. I also have laundry before bed, cleaning of the puppy pen and sterilizing it and Dennis sets it up. I wash each rubber toy and sterilize it before bed too. I vacuum the puppy room - my office/familyroom. It's a process. This all starts at 9 to 915 nightly. I can't let it go as it is all needed come morning. At 7am, I fill all those bowls to set them out. I then make the puppy food, put water in their pen, change the moms water, change their bedding, weigh them and comb them out all before coffee as I tend to like hot coffee. I told Dennis for Mother's Day is all I want is not to do this for 1 single night. I will do the morning routine. I so wish I had double of all the water dishes so I could just bloody leave them though that would drive Nathan nuts. But they no longer make them. So, in 2 hours, after blogs, it starts again. I am tired. I mean really tired. This too shall pass as they say.
