Hello - do you remember us? 10/11/14

Hi pals - Puffy and my pesky fursister Mei-Ling here.

Momma has once again neglected to update our blog - she says she has been busy but I know that isn't true.  She just didn't feel like doing it as she says there isn't anything new to write about.

We still have the workers here - they even filled the tree ring up with dirt so daddy can plant the Prairiefire Flowering Crabapple tree can be planted in it. 

Here is the tree ring with the Crabapple tree waiting for daddy to plant it...

We even have some artificial grass that daddy is going to put down after the concrete sidewalk is done.

  Here is the roll of FAKE grass...


Mei-Ling and I are checking out the area where the sidewalk is going to be in our courtyard...

The workers were supposed to be completely finished with our projects this week but as you can see from the above photo and the ones below, that didn't happen.  We have been having rain off and on for several weeks so the poor workers didn't really feel like doing anything.


 Here is where the back sidewalk will be - to the left is where the retaining wall will be built...

The small cylinder green thing in the back ground is the water holding tank for gray water which will be used to water the plants in the green house when it gets built.  Hopefully when everything is done there will be no more trenches and mounds of dirt re-directing the water flow away from our house.

Now, on to more important things - BOL, Mei-Ling has finished all her shots and will be going in for her "big girl surgery" in December or January.  She weighs 5.4 pounds and is very healthy.  I don't growl at her much anymore because when I do, it gets her excited and she just continues on with whatever it was that caused me to growl at her in the first place. 

 We share a nice cool drink of water together...

Now she wants to wipe her wet face all over me...

We played for a while... 

It made her happy...

But even better it made her tired so she went to sleep and I got some peace and quite - BOL, BOL

    1. Hi Whitley - You're going to find this hard to believe, but we haven't been barking at the workers even though they are working right outside our bedroom window. Maybe you and Finley should come over here and show us what we are supposed to be doing but I warn you, once Mei-Ling starts barking she refuses to shut up.

    1. Freckles - having concrete sidewalks done now is chancy. After the concrete is poured and made pretty, the workers will put blankets on top of them to help keep them warm so the cold early morning temperatures won't damage them. When the concrete was poured for the garage, it all cracked real bad and we don't want the same thing to repeat it's self. The workers should have had this project done well over one month ago but they didn't...

      Mei-Ling gets away with all types of bad behavior because she is sooooooo cute - BOL

  3. Crikey Puff ..... Mei-Ling's nearly as big as you. How did that happen so fast?? She's awful cute, aye?? Well ... when she's asleep, anyway. Sorry she's a bit pesky but I guess all puppies are pesky. I bet you'll be happy when all that work's finished. It sure looks like a big job. It's going to look great, aye??

    1. Mei-Ling is a bigger food hog and bossier than Coco ever was - I think all the extra food has contributed to her growth. Luckily she likes to run all over the place so the exercise is keeping her fit. She now weighs over five pounds.

    1. Frankie and Ernie - the human workers have slacked off a lot due to no boss being here with them. We are getting into the winter months and this project needs to be completed. Today we are supposed to get concrete poured so the boss sent four workers out. Hopefully the sidewalks will be done but then they will have to work on the retaining wall...
