     I went for my first walkies in the Rose Garden Park this year.  My feeties are sore and I am very tired…but I am happy too.  I had a good time with Momma, and Aunties G and Annie.  We had a girls day.

Malcolm, he was my heart dog…

Silly boy Malcolm

    Every once in a while a pet comes into your life and strolls directly into your heart to stay there forever.  This is my heart dog.  He lives in my heart as much today as he did for the thirteen years he was with us.

     Thank you Maggie Burns for this wonderful dog who blessed our lives and sits forever in my heart.

 

Gotta love them!

It seems that the pups have decided every evening after dinner it is time for a crazy romp.  This hucklebutting, chase me, chase you, on and off the couch, living room to kitchen insanity is a hoot.

If you saw these two you’d never believe that Gavin is going on twelve and Patty is nine.  They make us smile and laugh.  They are our greatest blessing.

You all have a good one and keep on laughing.

All this fresh air and free running in the yard…

HPIM2933

It sure does smell good.

HPIM2934

Want…

ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

HPIM2936

Tired pups and Curmudgeon.  Must be all that fresh air.

 

In theory it works…but in real life?

We’ll see. 

HPIM2956

Oh, yeah the theory…if I keep taking the dogs outside with me eventually they will get bored with grazing or beating the crap out of each other and will begin to relax in the yard and let me work rather than have to keep my eyes on them all the time.

Or not…

Patty says, “Oh, Brudder let me gnaw on yer neck.”    Yeah, I’ll get to work out there with them…not very likely.

Are you all ready for another picture day…or two?

What a lovely day we had.

     It’s a darned shame that with nice weather my energy levels didn’t go up.  If they had, I would’ve done so much yesterday that people would have fallen down in dead faints to see it.

     However, no one fainted, and I accomplished only minimal amounts of work.  I think my get up and go, got up and went.  If you happen to see it would you kindly direct it back here?

     Being outside in the sunshine was a pure invitation to laziness and my playful side.  The dogs and I had a rip-roaring wild game of find Mommy–tag, she’s it!  They are still snoring in their crates.  Funny, by now they normally want a last out.  I may have to wake them for that.

     You all have a good one! 

     Blessings on Boston.  A candle burns in this house for you all.
