Rainy Day in Paradise

Oreo the almost 17 year old and Socks sharing the recliner. Imagine that. I also noticed that since Harlow is not here, Ty has taken over her spot.
It's another rainy day and we do manage to get them outside between rain. The dogs and us make the most of it. I am so tired of the rain and we have a mouse in a pot and the dogs are after it. At least the mouse is not in our house.
It is almost New Year's eve. I made steak frites for Nathan and I. It came out delish. It was the 1st time I made it and followed a recipe. I will make it again though it did take time. LOL Good things come to those that wait, I suppose.
I am still exercising. I am trying to get Nathan to do the same. I love, love, love Supernatural on the VR. I am starting to firm up and it is becoming my time which is not usually what I get except on a day off outside of the house. Nathan said to me, you are exercising too long. In all the years he has done this every time. I told him he is sabotaging me. He says no - just think its too long. If you can't do without me for an hour a day and 15 min to shower - how will you cope when I am not here. If I got the dogs exercising with me (is it possible) maybe he would let it go. Bonus, I am sleeping better till 4am or 5am. See below why.
The thing about an old dog is they get doggy dementia and Oreo despite keeping him awake as much as we can during the day howls at 4 or 5am and the house is up. My apple watch is saying my sleep is dismal so I took a few dogs this afternoon and took a half hour nap, I had to. The dogs loved it. They were all over me, on the back of the couch and over my head. You would have laughed.
I wish it would just stop raining entirely. I so hate dirty floors and mud but I am learning to ignore. I think Dennis washed the floor 6 times today. As I went to get water, it is dirty again. I said maybe he needs an auto floor washer. He said are you joking? The dogs would be chasing and barking at it and they are expensive. I walked in with a headband to hold my hair back while I exercise and the dogs barked at me as if I was an alien. Silly doggies!

Oh, bless Oreo’s sweet heart! I can only pray Laci lives so long and is happy!
We’re growing old together and
Oreo wakes us all up between 4 and 5am wanting to eat. Can you believe? They are funny when they get to be serious seniors. We are not getting much sleep.
