Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there!!!

Today and yesterday, the dogs have started our walking routine. On average our route is about 2 miles round trip. Depending on which way we end up going, the distance varies very little. This time we took our route in the other direction from which we usually walk. This makes it a bit difficult because we end up climbing up the hill to come back home. Normally we walk down the hill. The dogs don't mind the change, however by the time we reach the top of the hill to our turnoff, all three of us are just about done in and long to be back at home. The nice thing about getting back into our walks is that not only is it good for us but, when we reach back home, the dogs are so tired that they sleep all afternoon and evening. Needless to say that I as well sleep especially hard at bedtime.

The weather today has been really nice. My yard is starting to show good signs of drying out. Right now the clouds are banking together and looking gray. It is supposedly suppose to rain tonight sometime. That I am not looking forward to. Oh sure, there are people out there that say we need the rain, but they need to come to my house and see that I can't handle to much more water. I say, let my yard finish drying out some more before the next storm hits.

I was wishing that I had clothes lines outside today. I have to do some laundry and long for the chance to hang it outside. I have a portable clothesline, but in order to put it in the yard, as I've said before, the yard needs to dry out first. There are a couple of trees on the "Wrong Side" of my house that I could run some lines, but have yet to do that. I need to find some cording then maybe I'll put up some lines. On our walk today, there were several people that had clothes outside. I am jealous of that ability.

Till Later....

Just remember to walk a bit slower when you invite me to walk with you. I have short fat legs and a short stride! :)))
