Chinese proverb"If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will avoid one hundred days of sorrow."
Yesterday was an awesome day. In the morning a friend stopped over for coffee. Margaret made dounts..MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM dounts. We had a nice chat. I learned a few things too. It's always nice to learn something new.
After she left, I went and picked up the kids. My son and I hooked up the pool. It's almost filled, I will finish filling it today.
My son was snooping around and found some squirt guns. Well let me tell ya two squirt guns in the hands of two grown men , lead to alot of fun. He started squirting me. Little did he know I have a water cannon! Needless to say we got soaked. I even got my daughter wet, I couldn't resist..hee hee!!!
It was so hot. The bud thingy things from my neighbors maple tree are attracted to water it seems. I swear every bud is in the pool. I got in the pool to skim it. Well since it's a new pool the bottom is slippery. Yep, you guessed it.. I slipped and fell in! But I'll tell ya something it felt good!
While the men folk were "working" Margaret made the best salibury steak, gravy, smashed potatoes and corn on the cob this side of the town has ever seen. She puts Total cereal in the salisbury steak... But we didn't have any, so she used Cheerios! OMG! That was so tasty!
Teddy came in from the yard, soaking wet. We thought maybe he was in the doggie pool. Nope he went in the big pool, he was jumping a running around in it.
It was a good day. I enjoyed the kids and the meal. Teddy is a blessing!
Live life to the fullest, love the chance of having a new day, laugh at yourself, learn that each day is a gift, listen to your heart,
Dave

I'm glad you had a good day despite the heat. It was cold and rainy in he plains today! About 10 years ago I had to take a small wading pool away from a non-water dog I had. Everytime I let her outside to run around in the fenced in backyard she would first make a mad dash for the wading pool - get good and wet and then run around. I finally got tired of getting a muddy dog. I threw the pool away.
ReplyDeleteWe have a white tiled kitchen floor. It gets so muddy from the dogs. We put throw carpets down to help keep the floor somewhat clean. It still gets quite dirty in there. That's okay though, the dogs are part of the family. A little dirt isn't too bad.
