It's hard to do anything other than hang with Newby when he looks at me this way.
Friday is the Best Day
Newby and Dixie love the weekends. I try to do all of my running during the week so I can slow down and enjoy some quiet time with them. Right now it's sunny, windy, and warm before a weather front comes in and created a sloppy wet mess around our little house. Good luck getting anyone outside to potty then. Good news Amazon just hit me with our subscription for potty pads.
So until the rain falls, we'll enjoy all the sun rays we can get.
Crazy Dachshund Lady
One of the best things about being the person owned by a dachshund is your friends have an easy way out when purchasing gifts for holidays and birthdays. Here are a few from December.
Hello from the Other Side
Hello, it's me....I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet...to go over everything... They say that time's supposed to heal ya but I ain't don't much healing....
Well that being said, I am not a complete basketcase. I am actually pretty stable in life. Yup there are ups and downs, but all in all I am happy. I have a great job working with great people I like, two incredible dachshunds, an awesome son (who has coupled with an awesome girlfriend), nice little house...like I said, all in all I'm a happy girl.
It's just this time of year... It's gray outside, it's dark when you leave for work and dark when you head home, it's cold constantly...It's just gray and dark.
Lucky for me Newby and Dixie are great snugglers. Even when the bed sheets are on the wash, they are hardcore snuggling. Newby is a little codependent on Dixie. He is a bit moor cautious in his old age. His ears and eyes are not like his ears seven years ago. He likes to be carried to wherever he needs to go. And he prefers to have company with him all day and all night. So my weekends are filled with books and belly rubs to give Dixie a break from her babysitting duties during the work week.
Dixie has aged but just in her hair color...she is full on loud, barky, snoopy, and opinionated chiweenie. And that nosey most gets a lot of boops.
So if only for me and the future when I am without my beloveds, I am blogging. But if someone else reads, enjoys their faces, well that is just a cherry on top.
Happy Birthday, Buddy-feller
Today would have been Milo's 10th birthday. The house is a lot more lonely without you.
Happy Birthday, Doh... We miss you.
Made, by Me
For the last year I've tried to find the perfect artwork for a blank space on my deck.... Nothing appealed.
So Newby and Dixie had a little sit down with me and said there is only one kind of artwork worthy of display anywhere...
Behold my freshly painted dachshund silhouette.
