My Newest Dancing Partner

So by now most of you know that I have spent most of my life as a dog dis-liker.

However, this sweetie has truly stolen my heart.

Who can resist a dancing puppy at the end of a long day?

Dancing with me is one of his favorite things.

Don't tell anyone, but it is one of my favorite things too!

Yep...he only likes to dance with me!

And, boy do we boogie!

The counters are a mess...there are dishes to put away...but who could resist a face like that!
What makes you smile at the end of a long day?

....Like Cats and Dogs

Let me start by saying that these 2 have nothing on ....... these 2!
This is sibling rivalry at its finest!
I know what you are thinking....
that poor little kitty cat!
Well, he does weigh 20+ pounds, and....
He ALWAYS wins!
The joys of being a family, and fighting like cats and dogs!
I encourage you to be a peacemaker today!
Happy Monday!

My Not-So-Favorite Things Friday

My friend, Traci, blogs every Friday about her favorite things. Of course, she calls it...Favorite Things Friday! I, being in a complaining kind-of mood, decided to post a Not-My-Favorite Things Friday blog.

When I worked in Chicago, I had a pair of gloves/mittens. They were perfect for taking care of stubborn shoe laces, wiping noses, etc.

So, I was super-de-doper excited when I saw this pair. Until I put them on this week and discovered a problem....

What am I suppose to do with my exposed thumb?

Crazy...

I guess this is why they were at the Dollar store.
This is the only thing that I haven't rushed to get out of Skipper's ever so busy mouth!

Yep...one of my Not So Favorite Things!
