Cloudy Times

Here is the gallery.

It's Mother's Day Sunday so I am feverishly getting other people's dog's done so they can lay on your lap and you can tune out to the world or smile at visitors. That means I will start doing mine here and there today. Well I did Sky extra early and she is now a complete mess. Part of me says why bother but I like knot free, if I can. I have no idea what we are doing for Mother's Day except no grooming. I hope you have a no groom day too. I will be doing comb-outs after this blog.

Nathan bought me an ice shaver. I do not like appliances for presents but this one I am excited about. I tried to shave ice in my blender. It does a poor job. The one I am getting is not expensive so the end result may be pitiful but I like flavoured ice in the summer. We shall see how that goes.

I tried to cook bacon in the convection oven to treat the dogs tonight. It was a bust so halfway cooked I put it in a fry pan and it went quick. The dogs are going crazy as they can smell it and know tonight an extra special treat. 

Today the dogs got caught in my raspberry bushes chasing something or other and Harlow was leading the pack. Nathan thinks it was a rabbit. I am sure it was. They had fun trying but not fun getting stuck. 

No one tries to swim in the pool. Progress. It's not war, enough. 

Dogs are acting like it is a cool fall day to laze. Imagine that!

Nathan enjoys the outdoors no matter the weather!
