TGIF

Thank God it’s Friday, that’s what TGIF means in case some of you don’t know. (the boys just asked) Mom works early today and the pups go with her to work as she’ll drop them off at the groomers to get ferminated (a special machine that blows out all their loose hair) before heading in for her shift. The little guy has swimming at 8:30 and I’ll need to take him with Mom at work. We spent most of the afternoon cleaning the house and actually accomplished a lot. The boys played in and out and closed the day watching Wipeout in our bed before heading off to their own beds at 9pm. Of course the littlest one was back 2 minutes later and stayed until morning. Actually he’s still in our bed sleeping. We had some wind and rain last night but nothing too bad. Being so close to the foothills we’re kind of isolated as it takes 10 miles or so for the cold swirling winds coming off the mountains to mix with the warmer air of the plains before the bad storms can form. I would not be comfortable living south or east of the city as they always get the bad storms.

It’s Father’s Day this weekend and Mom asked me what I want to do. Knowing that we (she) need a new rug since we decided to throw out our old dirty scummy one in the living room yesterday, I told her I want to go rug shopping for Father’s Day! She doesn’t really believe me but is going with it as she really wants a new rug. Now the challenge will be to find something she likes that’s not too expensive. Maybe Grandma has an extra one she can give us, hint hint!

The oldest just came down with Mom and I need to clean out the back of the car so she can take the dogs to the groomer. I have calls most of the morning so the boys will have to occupy themselves outside. They’re pretty responsible so I’m not really worried about them. Not much else going on, the boys did find and pick the first raspberry off our bush outside the dining room windows last night. The tomato’s are growing well just like the cilantro, basil, strawberries, squash and peppers. We need to do a little grocery shopping this afternoon and will probably get some chicken to bbq tonight. Here comes the little guy to join the party, yea, we’re all up!

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I’m trying to stay away from politics, BUT I just have to say how happy I am that that holier than thou, sexual pervert, Anthony Weiner has resigned. The misses can never understand why most of the wives of men that do these things (cheat) stay with their husbands. Frankly I don’t either, must be the money, it’s usually always the money, right? Great values huh…oh well, it’s not my life, thankfully.

Both boys are with Mom and I on the couch, and you might not believe it but they both grew last night. You would all be amazed at how tall they are now. Another beautiful day in Colorado, mid 80’s and perhaps an afternoon shower. This is the norm for Colorado in June. Time to jump up and clean the car so dog hair doesn’t get over all our coats. I also will put a sheet in the back where the pups sit to help catch all the hair. You could knit a sweater with all the hair they shed.

Have a great day and stay safe and healthy, and check out the quote below I found yesterday, interesting….. God Bless,

“Gold is the money of kings; silver is the money of gentlemen; barter is the money of peasants; but debt is the money of slaves.”

good reason to get out and stay out of debt!
