Pictures? You want pictures?

Fluffy messy chickies on the second set of paper towels since this morning; I was going to rip up some old sheets today to make reusable bedding (why yes, I did cotton diapers, how did you guess?) but it was one of those things which didn't happen today.

ETA, hmmmmm, on Photobucket that picture has numbers to deliniate who is whom. Clockwise from top: Quinta, Secunda, Tertia, Prima, Quarto.

Pretty little chipmunks!

Oh and note to Julia:::: Lyda is now at 3 & 1/2 feet and ever so healthy & happy!
And noted she has several groupings of flower coming up and will post when they open..what a beautiful rose!
I cannot hardly believe at a few months ago (2?) she was but a 10" stick.

It is raining everywhere!!!!!!!!!!
It is almost impossible to cook dinner:

That is so steamy that it steamed me glasses up...........sizzling ...coops all closed (in the background) and my 1 year old bare root crimson maple right behind the barbie~~~~~~~

I found that it only takes one really big dog with itchy skin, to be able to acquire that coveted Phd degree in backside scratching. I think it make take working on several smaller dogs with nasty skin issues to get the same degree of experience. As far as I can tell you are well on your way to that all important Phd degree.

Oh, good... As you can probably tell, there are few things in I want more in life than that P.h.d.

I'm sure if I put in a resume it'll help me get a great and well-paying job.

Ollie is almost as big as Puppy, but much younger, so he hasn't really developed any issues that require my attention. He's just spoiled, and that requires more attention that a skin issue probably would.

But his dad is prone to ear infections, and I'm hoping that wasn't passed on.

We found that with using rubbing alcohol in the ears, that we where able to cure or at least kept the ear infections from being a problem again. I don't think that I would use RA on a dog with really bad ear infections, but use it as a follow up. Komondork are like Poodles in that the dogs hair grows very long in the ear canal, so it's necessary to pull the hair out of the dogs ears. I think that is what had caused recurrent ear infections in Chuck.

My ol man has the same long-hair in the ear thing going on, I am glued to the post to see how you deal with it

Although, I am serious here!!!!

Edited to add: I do not think he has any poodle in him..he does shed.
Ear hair & eyebrows that will keep growing to completely comb over the head..more than Tom Selleck!

Own root roses are really quick to establish and hard to kill.

DH and I will be camping at the fairgrounds, and I managed to arrange for tickets to the Sat. dinner. I hope to put faces to as many names as possible.
