Been a Day

Here is the gallery.

Sorry not many photos nor was Dennis able to click many. Our washer latch broke so we called around to get it fixed and we got a range of 600 to 650 to repair it. A new one costs 1100 plus tax. It's too much right now so Dennis spent the day researching and taking the latch apart. He ordered another for 150 and hopefully it will come tomorrow and he is able to repair it. This is a 5 year old washer and we do about 4 to 7 loads a day day in and day out. I did manage to get 4 loads done before it broke. I still have 4 to go. Let's hope Dennis can fix it or Nathan will be doing laundry at the laundromat. Cross your fingers 5 ways to Sunday that Dennis fixes it. LOL

This all means that he didn't get many photos nor did he gets everyone clicked but tomorrow may be lean too and I have a lot of groomings to do. We  will see what we can accomplish. 

Despite all this, I got my exercise in. The dogs played and Dennis did run with the dogs. I think getting the dogs active is more important than photos but that's just me. Talking about photos, we do have Charlotte and Bailey caught in the act of playing. 

I made chicken fricasee for lunch today and it was amazing. Each week I pick a recipe to make it for variety. Nathan loved it. I did too but Dennis hates mushrooms so he ate everything but the mushrooms. :-) 

Some dogs departed. Some arrived for the day. The dogs are happy so I am happy. It's funny but when they are having a great time, I spend a lot of time smiling and smiles are important.

I love these Charlotte/Bailey pics. Charlotte has such a pretty face. Bailey loves her sister. And there are cute Bailey/Olllie pics too. My family is absolutely loving these pics. Thank you!

It is not always possible to capture but they are playing. Anyone who takes photos of animals is it is very rare for them to continue when you grab that camera but we try. Today may be a lean day depending on when the parts for the washer comes in. Dennis needs to do that and he needs to organize the basement so we can make room for the treadmill. Me, I am grooming a ton. It is okay as I can't do laundry at the same time. LOL
