Barney and Fred

I can't tell which from this angle, but this is either Barney or Fred who is sleeping so soundly with all of his glory hanging out. LOL I love his little hands and feet-hands. They are so precious when they sleep!

Fred in the front, Barney in the back. I will never get tired of watching them sleep. They just crack me up!

So... they won't sleep on anything but puppy pads. I give them nice soft fleecy blankets, and they'll drag a pissy puppy pad up from the bottom floor to sleep on. I've given up. They now sleep in a nest of clean puppy pads. Whatever floats their boats. LOL

Nelly Beans!

I'm about to talk about Nelly Beans (Penelope Opossum) tonight.  She was up walking around in her crate, so I opened the door to see if she'd like to have a walk around the living room.  She was into that!  She walked for maybe 20 minutes or so, then got thirsty and went back into her crate.  She seemed to enjoy being out and exploring.  I closed her door because I can't watch her all night, but I think I will try to do that every day.  That is the most I've seen her move in months.

The cats didn't seem to mind her and she didn't seem to mind them, either.  I think it would be great for her if I could end up leaving her loose with them, or at least unsupervised for chunks of time.  She could really use the exercise and I hate to leave anyone caged 24/7.

I don't know if it was the change of scenery that prompted her to get up and get moving or if changing her diet has made her feel better, FINALLY.  Whatever it is, I'm happy for her.  And on that note, it's time to go cook for those awesome marsupials.  I've been promising them eggs for days!

4/7 dogs washed.

4/7 dogs washed. Laundry started. I think it's about time to call it a night!

Gotta wash a few dogs tonight.

Laurel - I'm telling them it's all your fault.  You shall be on the receiving end of the stink eyes!  o_O

My boring-ass nails from this weekend.

My boring-ass nails from this weekend.  I must really be in a nail funk.  LOL  I thought that since it was sunny I'd wear a holographic polish, but it's not playing nice with the sun.  It weirdly shows it's holo effect more indoors, which is pretty unusual.

Janet picked out my design for me.  I was just tired and not in the right frame of mind to be creative.  I had to have some help.  I already know what I'm wearing this weekend, but if I change my nails before then I'm gonna have to dig through my nails "to do" folder for inspiration.  This kind of sucks.  😕

Janet's nails from this weekend.

Janet's nails from this weekend.  She did the painting and clean-up and I did the stamping.  I really like her choice of color and stamps.  Mine were MUCH less creative.  I should have let her design my whole manicure.  She did pick out my stamp for me.  I was just having a brain-fart moment.  LOL

When I should be doing things I don't want to do...

When I should be doing things I don't want to do, letting my squirrel buddy out to exercise is always a good reason to neglect my chores.  Better to neglect my chores than him, right?

I've had a lovely evening with my Dumpy.  He played briefly, but I think he tired out pretty fast.  It IS kind of late.  Tired Dumpy = Lovey Dumpy.  Usually petting means it's wrestle time, but tonight I got in all kinds of lovvins.  Back scratches, neck scratches, lots of head and neck kisses.  He even laid down and rested on my leg for a moment.  Usually he's busy darting around at the speed of light, trying to peel my fingernails off and looking for things to chew and wrestle.  But tonight, he mellowed out after some wrestling and running, and it was just nice.  Reminded me of when he was a baby and always wanted to be right with me.  Before he could move so fast and I was all he knew.  Sometimes I miss that.  Hell, sometimes I miss that with Shadow, too.  Too bad they all grow up so fast.  😕

I just love my kids.  ALL of them.  ❤
