Slowly but Surely!

I'm working my best to get things done in my move, and Jeannie has been an exceptional help.  She finds a place to put everything away, and I search to find things I need, haha.  Next thing I need to do is to clean the floors.  There is hardwood everywhere except the kitchen and bathrooms, and it isn't in the best of shape; the former tenants had a big dog and the floors show it.  So I'm going to live with trying to keep them clean and waxed, and not complain about scratches - Rocky is busy adding his to the former doggie tenant.

Speaking of the boy, he loves the backyard but I'm sure he misses the play with other dogs.  For some reason, I hurt so bad all over I can barely take him for a walk anymore, and limit the distance when I do.  Additionally, there is broken and cracked pavement along the way, whereas I did have to walk in the streets of the mobile home park, but they were maintained  and in excellent condition.  

My new washing machine can't get here too soon!  The dirty laundry pile on the floor of my closet continues to rise, as my stacks of clean clothes continue to recede!

My Alarm System!

I hope you can make out the details of Rocky's face.  It's such a beautiful face but very difficult to photograph because of his color.  I have an appointment for him to be groomed, bathed, and pampered for two hours on Thursday, and since Ara is in town for a couple of weeks, she will take me to Costco while Rocky is being taken care of.

I'm sorry I haven't posted any pictures of my new place yet -- I've taken lots of photos but am no longer good with framing pictures.  I always had a good eye for composition, but using a phone to take a picture is completely foreign to me.  I will eventually get some together that pass my now-very-loose standards and do a blog with all pictures.
