A fun weekend


I wish! We ran errands Saturday afternoon and returned home with some wine and dinner fixins ready for a relaxing night at home with Netflix. We were both in town, I wasn't working and had the next day off, it was time for a quiet night at home. The stars had other plans for us though. The stars, or the lazy guys remodeling an apartment above ours. They put tons of black stuff (still don't know what it was) down the drain that should not go down the pipes. It backed up in our bathroom sink then rushed halfway across the living room and even around a chunk of the bedroom and of course the bathroom was covered.

The fatalities include 3 rugs, one very nice large one. A "Rug Doctor" machine could not save them. Now poor Shep is lacking in soft places to flop until we can remedy the situation. The bathroom reeks of midlew (?) and the black gunk despite many hours of cleaning (btw, Craig can do some scrubbing when necessary).

This picture is a little taste of the fun.

More dog and snow video

Now that I realized I can post video here, I'll try to take more videos of stuff to post. My little point and shoot camera can record video.

First big snow of the season

Most dogs love snow, and Shep is no exception. I had the morning off and took him to the park to play. It was still coming down pretty good so my pictures are a little blurry. This video is of us playing the stay game. I tell him to stay and walk off and he just lays there until I call him. Then he bounces over to me. He seems to like this game.

Dog Days













We finally have a dog! Two year old border collie/german shepherd mix, male. Loves to be pet like no dog I've seen. He really likes to put his paws up on a bench and bet pat or brushed. This is one happy dog in this picture, with Craig brushing him :)
