Too cute for words....

Mei-Ling's yellow hoodie 11/19/14
Hi pals, Mei-Ling here....

Puffy, why do I have on a hoodie and you don't?

Snow and yard work 11/18/14
Hi pals, Puffy and Mei-Ling here,
As momma and daddy feared, it snowed a few days ago at our place and the workers have yet to return to finish the yard work that they started and messed up. Our water pipes are still exposed and with the temperatures getting colder and colder, it's only a matter of time before the pipes freeze and burst. The boss of the workers said he hired a new employee to come out to our house last Saturday to begin the retaining wall construction but no one showed up. When daddy called and told the boss that he was tired of all the excuses and delays, he was told they didn't come out because it snowed in Gallup so they assumed it was snowing at our place also. We did get a light dusting of snow on Friday, but by Saturday it was nice and sunny and the snow was melting. So here we are at Tuesday, a fine sunny day with the temperature hovering around 20 degrees but come night and early morning hours before the sun come up, it is about 4 degrees.
The boss man insisted that he would have a crew out at our home TODAY to jackhammer out all the messed up concrete. Now, not only will we have lots of nasty noise, but without the messed up concrete, there will be more mud as the snows come and melt (actually I enjoy the mud but can really do without all the feetsie washes). It is 9:15AM, and we are waiting for the workers to show up. Momma checked the weather forecast and more snow is supposed to happen on Friday...
Workers finally showed up after 10AM but weren't able to jackhammer out the messed up concrete because they didn't have a jackhammer! They tried to a heavy hammer and chip it out but noticed concrete flying all over the place and were afraid that they were going to break momma's glass French doors so they stopped. They also didn't bring the huge concrete saw so they weren't able to cut any of it out either. They are supposed to come back tomorrow:the saga continues....
Hey Puffy, what are you doing?
Mei-Ling, do you want to try my popsicle? It's really tasty as you have to do is lick it...
Yup, that's me piddling on some more blocks - BOL, BOL...
These blocks are for the retaining wall that hasn't been constructed yet...

To go with Zoe's beautiful sunrise we thought you might like to see a colorful sunset...
Same sunset but picture taken from a slightly different angle...
#&^@! My tongue is stuck...
I bet all you smart pups knew that would happen, didn't you? Don't worry it wasn't cold enough to keep her stuck too long - DARN!!! I was enjoying some peace and quiet.
Here I am showing Mei-Ling snow.
Excuse me while I piddle on the construction blocks...
This is the walkway that is supposed to be jackhammered out and re-done...
Look at all our feetsies prints in the snow. I'm checking out Mei-Ling's behind to make sure it's nice and clean - BOL, BOL
Mei-Ling didn't quite know what to make of the snow but after a bit decided that it tastes pretty good...
Mei-Ling still not quite certain of what all this white stuff is. Wait until she is made to go outside when it is actually snowing. I think she is going to enjoy it...
A guy can never piddle too much - BOL, BOL.

Puffy and Yard updates 11/13/14
Hi everyone, Mei-Ling here....
Momma has been noticing a lot of changes in my furbrother Puffy. She says he is wearing out and that she suspects his time is coming to join Coco Rose over at the Rainbow Bridge. He was taken to the vet last week for a check-up and since he has a host of health issues, they did not offer any good news. Not only is he experiencing piddling issues, now he also seems to be "spacy" as momma puts it. He stands around and looks lost or just starts barking at nothing. Being the nice little fursister that I am, I try to join in on the barking, but I don't have a clue as to what we are barking at. For now, the vet isn't changing any of his medications and since Puffy wants to sleep all the time, that is what he is allowed to do. Of course that doesn't exactly make me happy because I WANT TO PLAY. Momma and daddy are both taking a lot of time to let me chase and bring back my ball to them so that helps.
In regards to the work being done in our courtyard and the retaining wall all I can say is WHAT WORK? Yup, almost nothing has happened from the last posting. Yesterday, the workers came out and brought some more blocks for the retaining wall but once they were unloaded, they left. Our water lines and electrical lines remain exposed from where the workers had dug trenches to extend the electrical line to the gate because daddy wants to put in a security fence that opens with a code punched into a pad.
We haven't had any rain last week but we are expecting freezing cold and possible snow this week. This is not good for exposed water lines as they can freeze and burst. Not sure when the workers are coming back as they tend to show up "at will". Sure hope this project is done soon....

Waiting for workers 11/03/14
Hi pals, Puffy and Mei-Ling here...
We are waiting around to see if the workers who are supposed to be working on our retaining wall and cement are going to show up. Yesterday, the weather forecast was for scattered showers and the possibility of SNOW! Well it did rain a bunch and made everything muddy (ask me how many feetsies washes Mei-Ling and I had to have - I had three and smarty pants Mei-Ling only needed one) but there wasn't any snow. All this outside work is wearing us down and the whole family wishes it was all finished and the workers out of here. This work was supposed to have been done over one month ago but it just doesn't seem to get done correctly. They still have to jack hammer out some of the concrete and then re-pour it. Anyhow, that's our gripe for the day - We hope all our pals have a wonderful week.
