Last weekend was a busy one: Saturday was another workday in preparation for our Summer Bible Vacation at Highland Heights and our 2HERS group held a mother/daughter luncheon for us moms - don't they look great?
Of course, Sunday was Mother's Day, which we spent traveling back and forth to Lebanon (long story - let's just say my husband and his mama had a failure to communicate regarding schedules.) Then it was back for evening services and home again, when I agreed to watch Scadie (pronounced "Sadie" - the c is silent) while the guys grabbed a bite to eat. Suddenly the sweet sleeping princess puppy turned into an ornery and over-stimulated hyperactive bundle of energy racing back and forth through the house. Didn't see that coming. She tormented the cat and dog repeatedly by barking shrilly at them. They're both way too old for that nonsense, and the looks they gave her said as much. So she then proceeded to try to rip into everything she could get her sharp little milk teeth into. When I left to get our daughter from a youth event, the mini-me had the big dog's one-and-only chew toy all slobbery. Which didn't make anybody too happy as you can see.
Hey, sweet husband of mine, do you suppose we can get down the missing trim in the background? I don't notice it until I take a photo and it shows up, along with the smudge on the wall where the big dog likes to roll around and put her muddy paws on the wall. I won't complain too loudly - he's commuting back and forth to Ashland City each day, helping supervise the mucking out of the offices. A decidedly unpleasant job, made worse by the start time (6:30...tomorrow will be even earlier.)
And while I was downloading the other weekend pictures, I happened to come across this one I snapped of the cat the other day, when she was posing as mantel art.
She was quite good for a while up there, and then she got bored with the pose and down she came. Of course, when I took the shot, she gave me a baleful glare to let me know she did not appreciate the attention. Who knows what really goes on in the walnut-sized cranium of hers? It turned cool on Monday, and we actually turned the heat back on for a couple days. Today was warmer and tomorrow should be downright hot. Back to A/C I guess. Maybe the garden will soon be dry enough to actually plant...
