random weekend pics & prattle...

this used to hang in my grandparent's wood panelled back room.  i spent so much time in that room, playing with toys, reading books, trying to learn how to shuffle cards.  i loved being back there at sunset when the rays of sun would filter through my grandma's lilacs. 


i wore these crocs with socks to take out the trash.  i should be ashamed. 


i also had some wicked bed head going on.  again, i should be ashamed. 


teeth!!!!!! 


pretty brindle girl... 


japanese plum wine in a tiny bottle.  weird.  a little too sweet.  but the bottle is pretty. 


these 2 are attached at the hip.  either playing or rolling around in our laundry.  it's so much fun watching them hang out. 


our new living room rug.  i love it so much.  it's a strange pattern, almost 1940's looking.  gilly blends right in!

DO NOT PANIC!!!


I'm testing out a new blog format.  It's called
"dynamic views".  You can pick what view you like from the upper navigation bar.  It's pretty fucking cool.  The stuff like my profile and list of blog friends is on the right.  Mouse over the little gray boxes and it slides out.  Neat!

dogs in the kitchen...

i snapped a photo of gilly & charlie in the kitchen, and it struck me that i've taken so many pics of dogs in the kitchen.

we started with our pack of 3 old mutts, then it was griffin and a puppy. now the puppy is grown and she's got a new friend.

i look at this pics and it strikes me that there will be more to come. our pack will keep changing. i'm reminded to enjoy our time in the moment. to be thankful every day.

ok, enough of my philosophical rambles. let's say thanks to the pack, then & now & to come!
