Fur Baby Friday!



Linking up with Mrs. Monologues!!



I apologize in advance for the quality of this picture.  
It was taken with my mother in law's iPhone.  



Little back story...
Before we got Juliet (black), the MIL had another dog, Casey (a small Benji-type scruffy guy), who passed away at a very old age (we think 17 years) when Gunney (yellow) was around 3 yrs old.  So, Gunney was used to being the "pup" of the household for the first few years of his life. 

Even though Gunney was only about 4 years old when we got Juliet, he suddenly turned into the "grumpy old man".  She has so much more energy than he does, and was only a few months old when we got her, so she was very much a puppy. 

This is them, sitting in the same chair, a month or two after Juliet came home with us.  Obviously Gunney was sitting there first and is not too thrilled. 
"Why are you letting her do this to me?"  
She, on the other hand, is SITTING IN A CHAIR! OH BOY! 

Even though it's blurry, this pic cracks me up every time.  
Nothing has really changed since then, either.  :-)

Oh, How Pinteresting! and Wordless Wednesday

Another Wednesday...another peek at my Pinterest boards!  I haven't been on Pinterest very often lately, but I still have lots of pins to share.  :-)

Linking up with the lovely Michelle for...




Let's get started!   
Ready... set... go!

This little trailer is just adorable.  


From my HAIR/CLOTHES/MAKEUP board, via Jennifer Rorie, from source unknown (bad link).
I love the cute simplicity of this dress.  Perfect LBD.  :-)


From my Home Sweet Home board, via A. Hernandez, from Decorology.
I'd love to emulate this style when we get around to re-doing our master bathroom.  Green, clean, sort of tropical.  Love it.



From my Wow Nature, Wow board, via Joanie Boone,uploaded by user.
My favorite flower.  Always remind me of Hawaii. 


From my Haha Funnies! board, via Tastefully Offensive,  from Tumblr.
Hahahaha.  That's all I have to say. 


From my Travel board, via Megan Peters from Tumblr
Yes, please. 


From my HAIR/CLOTHES/MAKEUP board, via ME!, from SpaTrends.
This is not something I would probably seriously consider, but (interestingly) my BF loves it.  (??) I think it looks really cool but I am not the kind of girl to take a lot of time in the morning styling myself.  Plus my hair has never been that short! 



Also linking up with some other lovely ladies for this (semi) Wordless Wednesday...

Monday Mashup

A mash up of my thoughts on this Monday... Graciously hosted by Mrs. Monologues!


On the weekend....
Pretty mellow and low key.
Dinner Friday night at Lorna's Italian...They make the best bruschetta I've ever had.

Saturday - a little yard work checking on the seeds we planted last weekend,  followed by an early evening Padres game with the MIL.


Sunday - watched some TV, made potato salad from Food Network Magazine!  (go me!)  I'll share a pic or two this week.  (Recipe to come on my food blog sometime soon, also.)



On the upcoming week...
Back to 5 days of work after 2 weeks of four days.  Gonna be rough.
Hopefully I can catch up on my blog reading, I am a few days behind!
Looking forward to seeing what is growing in our yard, just a bunch of tiny green sprouts so far.  I'm hoping for pretty flowers!


On my stomach hurting all day...
  (since it woke me up at 3am to go back and forth to bathroom as it stopped and then started hurting again and again...TMI?  Sorry!)  IT SUCKS!

My Friday's Fancies - Rock the White

Post memorial Day white wearing!  Honestly, I don't own a whole lot of white, I am always afraid I will spill on it.  
But it is lovely and refreshing, and reminds me of summer time.  
So I chose a cute, comfy white dress to anchor this outfit.  I think I could handle this one, it's got the orange to (maybe? hopefully?) deflect any food or drink that might try to attack the dress.  :-)  

I hope everyone had a fabulous long weekend, and hey, we are almost to the next one already!
