The high 90's has finally helped the fur fly at our house.

Louie

& KC

both are finally starting to shed their winter coats. With Louie scratching constantly and panting even in the flow of the swamp cooler, I showered him with love and oatmeal soap and gave him a bath. He was so appreciative that he laid by my feet all day. Ugh - sometimes it makes it hard to move around with him glued to my leg. But I know where he is anyway. He did feel much better afterwards though. Then a good brushing when he was dry relieved him of tons of fur - probably enough to make a pillow.

Stay at Homes in Spring

Today I just needed a little time for myself. So, I went to my friend Connie's house to feed her "stay at homes". She is off visiting her family in Rigby and had to leave all the birds, the cats and the ginnea pig at home. Taking 3 dogs to see the fam is chore enough. I go over and feed and talk to those left at home. Quirky to me - but they all seem to know who I am and chatter up a storm while I'm there. It's such a great spring day too. Lots of forsythia in bloom now. We even brought in a few cuttings of some for color in the house.
Another thing on my plate today is laundry. I'm going to be traveling for the better part of the next 2 weeks so need to get a few things in order. I'm headed to parts of desolate Wyoming to work. I hope to post from there. We'll see.
