Upgrade

On By CarynIn chickens, dog

I have been meaning to upgrade my phone for almost a year. I put it off not just because of the cost, but also because it is irritating when things are in the wrong place. Compared to many moons ago, the upgrade process is SO much better, but there are still small shifts, tiny adjustments, and a whole lot of “where did it go?” Frustrating. But I finally succumbed, and have in the bargain a better camera. Maybe I’ll be able to provide some nicer shots for the blog. Today, all the animals just seem to be laughing at me. (Because of course I take pictures of animals first.)

“Hey! It’s the circle on the bottom! Come ON!” My dogs protesting posing for a picture instead of getting on with the walk.
“What have you done?!?” One of my hens investigating the new phone.

Pacifier

My human children never took to a pacifier, it is amusing that our youngest dog does. She runs around crazy, then asks to get on my lap. Once there, she likes to chew her bumpy nylabone until she falls asleep. Silly puppy. She also watches the TV.

Hot dog

Splayed leg pup

After having a good solid romp out back, little miss decided to cool off on the concrete floor, belly down, legs splayed for maximum contact. I could say that she lies like a rug. I could say she looks like a very small trophy rug, but that would be lyin’. She could reply that these puns are awesome, but she’s lying. The lies lie heavy on my shoulders, I think I need to go lay my head down.

I found the puppy

Puppy under blanket

Missy likes to crawl under blankets and curl up. I’ve never had a dog that does this, on blankets yes, tolerant if covered yes, but not an active burrower. It will be interesting to see if she keeps the behavior as she gets older.

Acorns

Post Oak acorns

I took this picture because I liked the arrangement of the six acorns. The leaves are still green down here in Texas. We’ve had a couple cool nights and some of the day time temperatures have been pleasant (it has to be under 80 degrees F to remotely qualify for me). I saw fireflies in the woods, which I don’t remember seeing at this time last year, but then again, I’m spending more time outside with the puppy. When all those acorns fall it is going to be a nightmare keeping them out of her mouth. Time to work on “drop”!
