I'm Tired Of All This Cleaning!

It was another weekend of cleaning here. I'm sick of hearing that vacuum run. Mama put our beds up on the big bed while she vacuumed, so I made myself comfortable. It's better than being on the floor and being chased by Bissell. I'll be so glad when we sell this place and we don't have to clean anymore.

I've Been Furminated....

....and I liked it!

What's a furminator? It's this thing.


See, some of my hair is still in it.

Mama read on Greytalk that some of the greyhounds were using it. She never thought of trying one since we have short hair, but I (Scout) shed while Jack doesn't. His hair is coarse and mine is very soft and thick. Mama enjoys being frugal, so she found one on Ebay because the one in the store was not in our budget. It was new in the package and was very reasonably priced, so she ordered it on Thursday and it arrived today.

Do you want to see how much hair I lost? Keep in mind that this is really only one side of me because well, I didn't feel like flipping to the other side and got tired of standing so Mama could do the other side.
Isn't it odd that it's grey hair? I'm a brindle after all. It claims to pull the dead hair, so I guess I'm grey underneath. I don't know. I do know that it was so relaxing having my hair brushed with it.

Jack was a little annoyed because he was laying in his bed and the ceiling fan caused some of my hair to fly into his face. Mama tried it on him and it didn't do much for him, so it's all mine to enjoy.

After my furmination, I had a Frosty Treat. Don't I look nice and shiny? Hmmmm.... well the photo doesn't show it, but I do look really shiny in person.

Happy Friday!

Hi everyone....it's me Scout aka Scoutie Roo. It's Friday!!! I love Fridays. When Mama turns off her computer on Friday evenings, we do a happy dance.

Do we have fun plans for the weekend? Nope! We have to clean the house because next week we have an agent's open house. Mama says we need to do deep cleaning and we need to trim some of the outside plants. The plants have really grown fast this year and need to be trimmed back again.

Do you want to see our house? Daddy and Mama took several plans they liked and put them together and this is how it turned out.


Mama took photos this morning because the day lilies are looking so pretty.

Have a greyt Friday!!!!

Fox!


Yesterday, we were recovering from our camping trip when all of a sudden Mama yelled "OMG"! That's really what she said too. Anyway, we ran to the window and there was a red fox on our porch. We had never seen a fox before. Mama couldn't find the camera fast enough to get his picture. She ran outside after she found the camera, but he was long gone.

Later in the day we saw a raccoon run across our driveway. What is up with all these critters in our yard? Do you think they know we are selling our house and are checking it out? Hey, if they have the cash, they are welcome to it. LOL

Guess Where We Are

We are at the BEACH! Well, sort of. We are at a lake, but it has a private beach just for us.

We've been lounging on our "beach" blanket.

When we get hot, we jump in the lake.

We rented a boat to go fishing.

Actually, Daddy and Grandpa went fishing. Mama, Grandma, Scout and I just watched from the beach.


We've watched the geese.


We've eaten lots of good food, but we didn't take pictures of that. Picture barbecue pork steaks, hot dogs, hamburgers and of course Frosty Treats. We've had a really nice time, but it's starting to rain so it's time to head home. We are very tired.

Happy Memorial Day!!!

Strange Visitor

Today was a pretty boring day when all of a sudden Mama screamed. "OMG!" Scout and I ran to the window and this is what we saw....

He was huge!

Mama said he just walked right up the porch step. That's what scared her. All at once she just saw this guy walking up and onto our porch. She opened the door so that we could see him better. Scout got scared and hid behind the chair.

We went outside later and he was gone. He was an odd guy. We didn't get close to him, but he was not scared of us at all. He walked around like he owned our place.

It's Hot!


Our weather has taken a big change. It's now HOT and humid. It's 92. We don't like it at all! We went from no humidity to this stuff overnight. We are depressed.

We had another showing on Friday night. Can you believe that? We had three showings in one week! No offers, but the people Friday said it's a "maybe". Maybe is better than "No". We are keeping our paws crossed.

Home Again - Part 3

 Well, we just realized that we didn't finish telling you about the rest of our trip home.  I don't know if we even remember the res...
