Fun Day Today

Here is the gallery.

We have a ton of fun with a house full of pups. 

Want to say thank you to Atoosa and her husband for the present of nuts and thank you to Kathy for the cookies that are almost all gone. Plus the gift from Ellie's family - special! Tonight a gift from Malla's mom - deepest appreciation!

Quinn is here having a total blast. Atoosa and her husband brought Kandoo and Nafas over to play with the pups. Winston will join the fun shortly. 

I had a very full day of grooming so I missed some of it and some of it I clicked and enjoyed. I even shortened my exercise just so I could participate. I have my priorities. We also have a pup called Simba who is from Paula here. So it is a fun silly house. We had Malla, Gus, Ellie, Pepper, Skylar, Mia, Maurey, Jersey, Ty, Petey and Ollie here. Some were here for the day and grooming (I had a ton of groomings - same tomorrow - always before Christmas) so they have or will depart later tonight or shortly.

The dog play has been amazing. You can't help but laugh - a real belly laugh too.

I am doing a print that takes 11 hours. I used up my black - good thing I had another as it was midstream. I learned how to reload and continue. I still have 4 hours to go. LOL It is the longest one I have done. I am learning. How could I print so much when I used other colours and run out of black. Last night while I slept I did an orchid plant pot that was really well designed. The fun you can have. It is dangerous but I pay little to politics so that's a positive. 

Dennis computer won't turn on so he is depressed and computer parts as of late are really expensive. I told him he will figure it out - hopefully.

Can you imagine so many pups in bed tonight? Going to be fun!

Quinn looks like he is having the time of his life.
I see that he seems to have mastered stairs.
I hope he sleeps well tonight & allows everyone else
to sleep.🤞🏻🤞🏻

I will let you know how it goes after tonight. So far he has been playing so much, he tried to nap before bed - 15 min from now. We distracted him.

Stairs was inevitable as he watched the rest. We had Nafas here for a short visit. We have a puppy - not ours Simba and Winston just arrived. He is exhausted.
