Sunning on a Cool Day

Here is today's gallery.

I had a full day of grooming and then I started in again on purging clothes, I figure every 25 or 30 years you need to. LOL I finished my closet, the dressers and much more. Tomorrow I vacuum, wash floors and tackle that stack of books that is collecting dust or so it seems. Nathan collects books but now he reads on his reader vs a hardcopy. He has made the leap. That means the books have to go and the library does not take them unless they are signed or rare. LOL

The dogs spent a lot of time with Dennis while he weeded. Nathan took Misty to the dog store.

As you can see Brewer and Tenshi was lazing outdoors catching the rays. 

Everyone played off and on all day but as Dennis said, I don't carry the camera when I weed. So, we got what we got.

Fitz departs today. Jeannie's blog has an update. Seems we have a swimmer! 

Meadow departs tomorrow. We will all miss her but especially Misty. It is why Nathan took her to the store without Meadow. 

Warm weather is coming Thursday or so they say. Ziggy misses swimming. LOL I think the rest of us do too.

Glad you got to finish your closet. Good job done! I remember when I had to dispose of my mom's clothes, wasn't easy but I gave it all to a very good charity. Made me feel good. Funny thing about Nathan and books...I went from paper books to reader and now back to paper books. For some reason, I like the feel of books again so I buy them and give them away to either friends (Lillian is one of them...Blu-Belle) or give them to the hospital. They take all books. Nice gallery, yes, weather is looking warmer this week. Let's hope. Today was cool, we had a nice walk with the doggies just the same :-)

Nathan has maybe 2,000 paperbacks - maybe more - and he's read them more than once. I like the feel of magazines and hate them online so I get that feel. Here the library won't take them and the last bookstore close by closed. They had a used book section so Nathan would take some in. Nathan reads a book in a night or 2. Maybe that's why he reads it more than once. LOL I read slower but remember every little detail.

Does Blu-Belle play with your duo?

My mom's stuff was hard but its done. Mine was funny as I had outfits that haven't been in style in eons. Nathan tells me he will do his himself. We shall see.

If it stays cool, I will tackle my grooming closet and start heaving products I don't use anymore. Last time I did that I combined products then forgot what was in them and then didn't use.

I am a little late in spring cleaning. I should be in the garden.

Best time to walk is when it is cool. Glad you enjoyed!

We got to see Blu-Belle weekly in Cooper’s Fun Obedience class, from Sept to May. We’re planning a Havanese get together at Evelyn’s place this summer, with Sparky and company. Evelyn owns Macey, a Domlina pup. Spicy has met them all 😉 I never used to read a lot but find myself reading more now. Really enjoy that “me” time.

Murphy seems fascinated by the pool cleaner.

We are talking about resuming our havanese get together at Yvonne's new place this summer. Take lots of photos of yours.

I know Lillian - have known her for a long time but don't know Evelyn.

I can't find the time to read. I used to before I started grooming and pups. Nathan has more me time than me. LOL I so wish.

Nathan says if it times out we could even drive in for it with a dog or two. Let us know. :-)

June 3, 2019 | Registered CommenterDarlah

Yes, now that it goes up to the top - it's as if she is saying - is that creature coming out?

June 3, 2019 | Registered CommenterDarlah

Darlah who is the brown and white girl in the main photo you have as the place holder for today’s blog entry? Is she related to stormy? She looks like my sweet potato boy Ollie! Glad you got some organization done I do it all the time. It’s literally the best feeling ever.

Meadow is going to Misty so much too! She will be back for visits and play!

That is Tenshi. She is Saffron and Stone, I believe.
