Verypink is your only source for fast-topic-changing Fridays. I think.
It has been abundantly clear over the last several posts that I am dogsitting Gus and Lou while Chris is traveling for work, making the doggie to human ratio in this house 4-to-1. I’ve been trying to shake things up and keep the posts about things other than canines. It hasn’t been easy.
As much as I adore these dogs and love having them here with me, it’s a bit overwhelming. Most of my days are spent feeding, walking, moving beds, picking up toys, opening doors, giving medicines, playing – the list goes on. When I do get a chance to sit down, there is never any place left for me to sit.
Today I’m NOT going to try as hard to keep the doggie content down. Because that’s what’s really going on here.

There has been one bedroom of my house that I have ignored since I bought the place. I only opened the door long enough to throw something in. I decided it was time to make it a proper spare room.
If you want to know why I’m wearing a face mask, you’ll have to visit my flickr page. |

After I cleared out the room, I was still feeling motivated, so I scraped the tacky popcorn texture off the ceiling.
I threw the dogs’ beds on the floor, satisfied with a good day’s work. |
|
But I was high-on-life or something, because once the popcorn was removed, I decided to go ahead and repair the holes in the walls.
Then, surprisingly, I still had energy to buy paint and slap some up. |
|
The next day I put two coats of paint on the ceiling. I might have overdone it…my shoulders are so sore that I’m unable to raise my arms above my head.
But now the room is clean, fresh, and green! |

And so is this dog.
Next…! |

Every now and then, they actually use their dog beds so that I can sit on the human furniture.
Have a great weekend! |
