Two things

Only two things of note happened today. Thing the first:


The latest David Austin catalog arrived in my mailbox. It made pleasant reading in bed before my afternoon nap.

Thing the second:


It's bitterly cold outside, so I contrived something for George to wear on our walk. It's a soft, warm shirt of mine that shrunk in the dryer. He actually seemed to enjoy it! I also put a knit hat on him, but couldn't get a photo of that.

How was your day?

  1. I've never tried dressing Bok. Lady Magnon did ask me if I thought he'd like a raincoat, but I think he's OK; he never shows any signs of being cold.

  3. Ha-ha, now I wonder if Rick would like a jumper like that? It's freezing cold here this morning but he does have a very shaggy coat.

  4. Some catalogues make great bedtime reading, don't they!
    My day was relaxed, with a quick trip to Aldi's to stock up on groceries and get fresh food (salad etc.) in, and a walk to my parents' where my sister and I had coffee and Christmas cookies with them before she walked home with me and had another coffee here.
    This morning, I stayed in bed until 9:00 - sheer luxury!!

  5. I can almost smell that catalogue. My days up until now have been spent struggling against Apple's self-destruct software update, with a bit of Christmas in between.

  6. That shirt is a good idea! I've been hesitant to buy Olga a coat, because after all dogs come with their own coats -- but a shirt might help insulate them a little more.

  7. My favorite part of this post was hearing that you got an afternoon nap.

  8. You could start a new business making dog clothes out of people clothes. I think he looks great!

  9. George is adorable. But then I always liked guys with the nerve to knot their T-shirts and bare their mid-sections.

    1. Haha! I had to bare his mid-section so that he wouldn't pee on himself! :D
