How is he sleeping nose-planted like this?!

How is he sleeping nose-planted like this?! It's making my chest tight just thinking about it.

Poor Cub has such a hard time. Rose drains his life force, I guess. 😂😂😂

When I say she doesn't leave him alone...

I firmly believe this is why he leaves. 😂😂😂

Me and Shaun spent yesterday moving stuff and cleaning out the garage.

Me and Shaun spent yesterday moving stuff and cleaning out the garage. We're far from finished, but now we can skate in there when we put the cars out. 😁 I'm pretty excited about that.

Perhaps an even bigger deal: We put all of our photos in the same place. We have a photo cabinet now. We're straight up acting like a family over here. 😂😂😂

I think I know why Cub was so unsettled last night.

I think I know why Cub was so unsettled last night. These coyotes? foxes? were in our yard, playing with his toys and peeing on his bones. Poor traumatized puppy. 😂😂😂

Last night was ROUGH. Or should I say "ruff"? 😂

We hear the coyotes howling on the mesa pretty often. No big deal. We also know they come into the neighborhood because we caught that one on our doorbell cam. But last night was different. They weren't just howling; they were yipping and making a lot of noise. And they sounded pretty close.

They were noisy but not too disturbing. Cubba, on the other hand, was roaring and barking and growling like it was the apocalypse. Inside the house because we can't leave him alone outside, obviously. (He pulled another fast one on us just the other day, except he climbed over into the neighbor's yard and climbed back when we went to get him. Then of course greeted us in the house like nothing happened. 😂) But yeah, last night he was inconsolable.

That sucked because I was SO EXHAUSTED. I vacuumed the whole house yesterday (stairs, too - ugh) except for the kids' bedrooms because they are responsible for those. Then I shampooed the carpet downstairs. It was WORK and I was so tired. Then the dog wasn't trying to let me sleep.

On the bright side the carpet was totally dry 2 hours later. 😮🤯 When I painted a while back the rooms were dry to the touch in like, 15 minutes. I still love it here. The moral of the story? The desert is magical, and Cubba is an asshole. 😂😂😂 (He's not, really. He's just super smart and friendly and sometimes bored and sometimes [rarely, honestly] really scared / alarmed. It happens.)

Protect innocent black boys the way you protect guilty white boys.

Period.
