Fresh air & exercise

I have started my late fall hours at work so yesterday left for work at 6:00am & got home around 6:20pm.  It will only be 3 days a week...sun, mon & thurs so even tho the days are long I only do two in a row.  The part I don't like is leaving home in the dark & getting home in the dark.  Yesterday wasn't that warm & very windy but bright sunshine.  When Popster got home we took Molly to the bike trail to get some craziness out of her system.
I love the way her ears a flapping in this shot....they were doing an agility exercise going around the posts!  We usually let her loose so she can run for a while but for part of the trail it's swampy on both sides & Molly, being Molly,  always has to be the naughty child & run into the water & then roll in the leaves!  She always waits for that moment when we are not paying attention to do it!  Crazy dog!!!


I do not like the fact that a lot of the trees have lost their leaves but they do look neat against the sky.
The oaks are the last to give up the leaves & this was taken as the sun was going down.

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Sewing, weaving & emptying the waterbed

 Monday morning began bright & early as we needed to finish emptying our bedroom.  Mark was dropping LiLi off before 8:00am as she does not have school this week.  We needed to drain the waterbed before we could take it apart.  As usual we were having no luck getting the water to siphon out & even resorted to having LiLi (all 35lbs of her) sitting on it with us!!  It probably took over an hour & who knows how many tries before it worked.  Got the mattress out & discovered the decking was falling apart.....good thing we decided to do this project,,,,I was able to find a local place so we can just replace it & to be safe I also got a new safety liner & heater.  I don't want to be doing this again for a while!  While Popster worked on replacing the baseboard & window trim in those two rooms LiLi & I started working on this doll kit she had gotten for her birthday.  All the pieces needed to be sewn togeth...
