Update and Fun

Here is the gallery.

This is Yoshi's Lola with her partner in crime, Axel. They are getting along fabulous. I am told they both have the same spunk but watching a video, she is too smart as she cuts him off at the pass when running in the back yard. Be still my heart. I needed to hear good news today!

This was the wrong day. If anything was going to go wrong - well that's today, it seems. 

Dead high end headphones - there goes my tips, broken wiper mechanism for the car - won't even turn on, filament stringing, a warnings for filament and tubing errors, wet dogs that need drying, exploded bed in the washer that we are still dealing with - blockages, stupid filler pellets that seem to never stop appearing and I used all my grey filament but found one - last remaining one. Got to order more as grey is what I need for a project I have in mind. I place that up so I remind myself. I also found out what splendid stringing is about and why it occurs. Should make a glorious piece of art work from it.  I could go on as there is more but I won't bore you. 

I had so many wet dogs to comb and dry today. Will it stop raining or just bloody snow? Now they say we are under snow squall warnings. Alert - it is raining here not snowing. Where are you weather alert people? Are you looking outside?

I am in a mood... it has been a day.

But the dogs had a splendid time. Ms Coco refused to go out in this rain and can you blame her? She looked at me and used the pad then looked at me as if to say - really no need to go out. 

The dogs always manage to have fun and I want to be a dog that lives here!

Lucky Axel to have a pal! He and Newt look so similar. Seriously, how are they almost 2yrs? I feel I lost a good 8 months of it to my stupid broken ankle. Newt is finally learning the rest of his commands.
