This was our crew for the past couple of days. Two of the dogs, Spootie and Clover, leave today and we have yet another friend joining our gang. Boo the Westie, who is almost blind and diabetic. He needs insulin shots after his meals which always makes me slightly nervous but we get through them just fine.
We normally only take in two dogs at a time for overnight stays but all our wonderful repeat clients needed boarding and so we made room for everyone to have their own little vacation here while their humans are away.
Mornings are a little bit more hectic with lots more doggy bowls to fill and clean and lots of paws scurrying around whenever I move around in hopes for a special surprise treat. The laundry gets folded just a little bit on the messier side and there is less room on the bed for us to stretch out our legs as there is always a dog on top of our legs, or heads resting on our tummies or snuggly sleeping right by our side, sharing a pillow, or two. But that's ok. I like this a lot. It's my kind of vibe.
I have been determined to take more pictures - I recently upgraded my phone to the iPhone 8 (I apparently have been living under a rock because I had no idea there was a new iPhone out) and have been on friendlier terms with my Fuji X100T and also have been carrying my Canon 7D around the house all the time as well. I have also bought and downloaded patterns for a couple of knit hats and cowels and have been eyeing this recipe to make soon. We also have little Halloween decorations that still need to go up and I am still trying to convince Yangkyu (and myself frankly) that we need to buy the huge plastic pumpkin at Target to store all our Halloween candy this year. I mean, do we really need that? The irrational part of me says yes, the more practical part of me says no way.
I thought it would be crazy hectic with so many guest dogs and Yangkyu with his work and grad school classes, but I am liking this current vibe of ours.
We'll be busy until October 28th when the last of our guest dogs leave. We don't get a single break inbetween but I think we'll be ok.
Happy October everyone.
What's going on in your neck of the woods?

ReplyDeleteI really should start thinking about Halloween decorations soon. Every time we go to Party City, I'm like, "I'm doing it this weekend. This weekend for sure!", but it never happens!
Anyhoo, here's to a great weekend!
PS Thank you so much for watching my vid Jane:) XOXO TBH, I didn't think anyone would be interested, but I love watching those kinds of language vids so I thought I'd do one:)
You guys always have the cutest crews! It's always so apparent that your guests are well looked after and have a lot of fun at your house :D
