Only a Charlie Day Wednesday.

Thursday is Charlie at the Groomers for a Hair Cut & a Shower day.

[PROCON]

I am the dog-sitter this week and I don't mind cuz they're easy to care for.

Nothing else happening on my end today, just relaxing tonight.

You still weeding?

[Kathy in Alaska]

JANEY!!!! Hello in Chicago! ((HUGS))

Did you have a nice smooth flight?

[radu]

Be glad he doesn’t have a herd of kittehs! LOL! They can be a pain to care for.
How many pooches does he have?

Today was grocery day and the rain waited until a little later to hit, which was nice. Can’t stand shopping when it rains. Lots of soggy bags to bring into the house. yuck.

No more weeding, at least yanking big ones. It’ll just be a little maintenance weeding from here on out and that doesn’t hurt my back.

[luvie]

NEVER Forget them!

[left that other site]

Yes Indeed.

Never Forget Them!

[luvie]

What an amazing photo that last one is of firing the missile! Wow!

[PROCON]

Son's Mom has 2 Shih Tzus, very mellow and lovable dogs, and they don't shed because they have hair instead of fur, a big plus!

Do you have any upcoming car shows you'll be showing "Baby" at?

[radu]

Shih Tzus are cuties and all I’ve run into have been sweeties. And well-behaved. Your pooch-sitting is a cush job. :-)
Not having tons of hair to constantly clean up is a big plus!

There’s a car show May 7th that I hope to enter Baby in. All depends on the weather. If it’s a wet day, Baby doesn’t leave the garage. It’s been nice weather for that show the last few years so we hope the trend continues. It isn’t a huge show but it’s fun.

[radu]

Howdy, LUV.

Tail feathers draggin’ a little after staying up too late last night? Or did you take a nap after you got home? :-)

[PROCON]

If it’s a wet day, Baby doesn’t leave the garage.

Whoa, you're a serious Chevy enthusiast. Is there a cash prize for "Best of ?"

[MEG33]

Good Evening To The Canteen

[Jet Jaguar]

Howdy Meg!

I am getting ready to head to pillow land.

It’s good to see ya!

[radu]

I don’t take Baby out on wet days because that means a LOT of work to clean it back up. One big cleaning a year is more than enough to suit me. LOL!
If I was really serious, I wouldn’t drive to shows but would haul it in a trailer. No trailer queens here! If I can’t drive the car, why have it? They’re meant to be driven. I break Baby out every once in a while to just cruise around.

No cash prize for Best of Show. Just a large trophy.

[PROCON]

I break Baby out every once in a while to just cruise around.

Do you wear your poodle skirt and saddle shoes? :-)

[MEG33]

Thank you, (((Jet Jaguar))) Pleasant dreams.

[luvie]

Hey, there, radu! :)

Yes, I’ve been a bit draggy all day. I had a nap but was as tired when I got up as when I went to bed. I have GOT to quit staying up till 2am when I have to get up at 7:30 the next morning! LOL!

Even REAL night owls have more sense than that. :)

How was your day? All the kittehs in good spirits? Did you get any of the “leftovers” from OK’s bad weather?

[PROCON]

Hiya MEG, howz yer Texas weather?

We're getting nice Spring warmth.

[radu]

A poodle skirt sometimes, saddle shoes many times. I found out early on that if the wind’s blowing, poodle skirts can be blown up over my head. Whoopsie!!!
