WORDLESS WEDNESDAY WESTIE PICTURE OF THE WEEK

Don't Worry BE HAPPY! :0)

Today was the big day, My husband drove my mother-in-law to the airport for her trip. This for most people would not seem signifigant EXCEPT this is her first time flying and she has two layovers and a flight across the ocean (she is flying from the midwest to Hawaii) my hubby said she was a bundle of nerves and he was surprised she got on the plane however that was not what I was worried about ( I knew she would do fine she is a smart lady)  What I was concerned about was Duncan......

There is no piece of paper or magazine, paperback book or trash can  that this pup can resist and today not only was he at home alone longer than normal but he was also taken out of his normal pattern of coming with dad to take me to work and see me off and then spending the morning with dad  before he leaves for work. Instead he had the apartment ALL to himself. I was in fear of what I would find when I got home but suprisingly there was not mass destruction!  Either I am getting better and keeping temptation away or he is just a good pup and behaved himself today. I was SHOCKED!   :0)

The Sunday routine....

Soooo..... I am a bit of a homebody ( I know, no one stand up to protest all at once lol!)

 I have noticed lately that my darling husband and I and Duncan have a little routine on sundays (every other day is random but oh no not sundays) On sundays My hubby goes to work and Duncan and I lazily sleep a little while longer then get up and I clean the apartment (oh joy of joys) and/or take the dog for a walk among other homebody things. When he gets home we cook together and settle in for a nice evening at home. We all curl up on the couch and watch tv or a movie.  I never realized it before but it is the same EVERY sunday. I know this might sound really boring but I love it that I have a couple cuddle bugs to snuggle up with and relax! There is no stress or pressure or craziness, just peaceful wonderful bliss!

Silly Sundays and Random stuff.

Every Sunday I am going to post something silly/random that I and/or Duncan have been up to lately or something we find funny. 

 

Here is the latest: 

 

 I just finished reading this book. It is a book that tries to tackle the mentality of dogs and single men.

(And that is a challenge considering the author is neither) 

This is a book to read if you wonder what dogs are thinking. The Main characters are Gil (a divorced construction/handyman) and his 4 dogs Jimmy,Cheney,Dinks, and Fruity. Gil seems to relate more to his dogs than other people in his life and each one of the dogs has a different personality which fits well with the different personalities we all see in our dogs,  There is the confidant dog that has had the same home his/her entire life, the rescue dog that has overwhelming fears of being abandoned, and there are the rescue dog that take a LONG time to learn the difference between peeing inside and outside lol!  Either way this book is a quick read that I truly enjoyed!        

                                                                                                        

This is what Duncan was doing while I read. zzzzz.......

So since Obviously I have been a boring human lately, Today we went for a walk and he seems much more excited about that then some stinky ole' book!

It was a little bit hot but we enjoyed it a lot!  Duncan get so excited that he doesn't know what to sniff first!
