Nature and FFF

Lady is very proud of herself to realize today is Rosy's Nature Friday and Aunty Yam's FFF! (It is helpful that the last Friday is the last day of the month).


May you always find the colour in the world, even when it feels dark.

Don't Forget Me - by Lee

Ummmm, it seems the blog this week has been all about Phody and what he does at the beach. Yes, he does engage in more action then I do, but I am much better behaved. It should be noted that the other day while we were swimming, he ran over to say hi to the neighbours, then he tried to swim across the lake to see a dog. I do not do things like that.

Lady and Man have finally come up with a mutually agreeable way I can spend time at the lake while they swim. They use a tie out and clip me to the goose fence. I get lots of room to sniff, I can get back into the bush and grass or stand in the water and bite waves. Yes, being free so I could run and see the neighbours (I am not going to try and swim across the lake, thank you very much), would be better, but this will do.

See, I am enjoying the lake while Phod is looking at high alert

See, I am smiling at the Lady while Phod has dropped his bumper and ran toward the neighbours

I am a happy girl enjoying my lake while staying at my lake!

Mischief Monday - A New Trick

The only real mischief this week is that as Lady tries to adjust to the old-new world of actually working while maintaining some of the healthy habits (mainly a reduction in screen time which is hard because most of her work now involves a screen) , she has not been to visit you all. We are hopefully over the next couple of weeks we can create a better routine.

Now Phod will share his new trick.

The air is now hot enough to make our peeps think that swimming in the lake is a good idea. As you all know, I love to fetch on land and water. In the water, my preference is to stand at the shore and run into the lake while my peeps stand on the shore. I will not swim out with my bumper and chase it in. My peeps have been teaching me to come up the dock and jump in from there.

Dropping my bumper for the Man


 I don't love it, but I will do it to humour them.


Walk up the dock past the neighbour's boat

Get ready to chase it! 

Make a big splash

Swim back with it

What do you think of my new trick?

This and That Thursday - New Settee

Let's check this new piece of furniture out. Lady says it has had more cats than you can imagine use it. Most recently 5 lived in the house.

We were a little sceptical, would the settee be good enough for dogs or was it really just for cats?




It has our seal of approval. What is even better is we can sit beside the Lady on it!
