What a Wonderful Day

Here is the gallery.

I want to say thank you for all that made my day a wonderful one. I didn't groom. I took a long hot shower this morning instead of coming down with the dogs. Eeeking out time to take a shower is not a given always for me nor is it easy. So to leisurely not worry about doing everything that I do every day from 7am till bedtime was amazing. Maybe its not for you but for me, I work so hard so anything that lends me an easier time is - well huge smiles.

I want to thank those that brought their dogs that I have not seen for a bit. Bonham arrived today and was so much fun. Mom brought gifts - a gift card and yum homemade scones. The big gift was Bonham that was so delighted to see and her husband Steve was a treat too as its been a long time. Nice way to start the day.

Daisy's mom brought dessert - yummy desserts - thank you! 

Tenshi - well we get her an extra night. Poor Sylvia is working herself to death before she can go to Montreal for a funeral. Hugs...

I must admit, I changed blankets, moved laundry on and snuggle over and over with the dogs. I am about to sit in a recliner to rest enough to start my day tomorrow grooming.

A gift of yum designer fruit arrived from Coco the Maltese owners - yum. Though Nathan has been picking at it. He loves fruit. I told him hands off the chocolate covered strawberries. The other day Ronnie brought smoked meat. That's Nathan's fave and was so special as she always thinks about us. Tenshi's mom brought me yum is it Korean or? It was ever so good. Thank you.

Thanks to Sandy who sent me mad money. I bought a few summer shirts. Thanks to Sherry - tips, mad money always wonderful and she always thinks of me even when going crazy moving.

Nathan picked up Lonestar and my tummy is bursting.

Then today Kandoo's mom came with Kandoo and Asal and brought Purdy's chocolate and well we watched Spirit literally go out of her mind to see Kandoo. She even kept trying to get Asal to play. Spirit was smiling and so incredibly excited. It made us smile too. Between Bonham and Kandoo - it made my day. Yes, I so love the dogs but Spirit - oh boy grinning and grinning made my heart melt. I did put a short bit of it on Youtube. Nathan also took a short video of Jersey and Pepper playing - siblings.

Dogs had fun. A day off from grooming - needed. Thank you for everyone who cared. The recliner is calling. 

To all who sent messages - thank

It has been a long time since I had a good birthday. Even though I didn’t go anywhere But Winners, I didn’t groom. I didn’t change xpens, dishes well I did keep moving on the laundry as they kept forgetting and I had a wonderful meal with a margarita that had me taking a nap. It was wonderful. Getting to see Bonham and Kandoo priceless. Now coffee and grooming. Thank you everyone.
