We've just finished up with 10 weeks of 4 puppies (although precious) running our household. That's not to mention 5 adult dogs (and soon to be six - another story) in the mix.
I also failed to mention that while I'm work everyday Ralph can absolutely trash a room - or given the chance - the whole house. You know I love him dearly, but 3 dog crates still in the living room, the kitchen table piled high with AKC information, bills and junk mail - and did I mention the sink is stacked with dishes that were not there when I left to do the weekly shopping this morning.
I am willing to try just about anything to get our life back in order - atleast improve our present situation - this is where "go shine you sink" comes into the story - the website is flylady.net this is the link "click here". She's talking about babysteps - I can't imagine starting with more - - - Anyhow, my sink is shining (at least for the moment) supper is in the crockpot -a recipe from her site, and I'm going to read some more of her ideas.
I realize this doesn't have too much to do with cocker spaniels, but maybe it does. I spend a lot of time with them, and the house continues to look worse. The first five years of my life we lived with my grandparents. My grandma was the world's best cook, housekeeper, and anything else you want to suggest. She didn't wash her windows twice a year - she washed them weekly. She would cringe if she could see how me now.
But not to fear - new day -- hopefully new ideas from Flylady - I'll let you know what else I learn! P.S. our new little girl Cherish is doing great - I promise pictures soon.
