Juno and I are back from our morning walk and ready for the day. Earlier this morning I put away yarn messes, dusted and brought order to the room and covered the dog bed loft bed with freshly laundered bedspreads, then immediately on return from our somewhat dusty burry walk, Juno hops up and expresses a bit of jubilant gratitude for her clean napping place ( aww Juno, she’s so upbeat! ) And as the dog days of summer snail on by we are definitely feeling a reprieve from the usual heat these last couple of days, maxing out in the high 70’s to low 80’s, and no complaints. These last weeks of summer always seem to slow down to a crawl, at least with the knitting, although closing in on the end of the season at last, with only three more weeks left ! Scotty, beam us to Autumn!

PS. Edited in later in the day : I was thinking about this Dog Days post and recalled there another similar that I posted many years ago. I searched in my archives and found it! It was the Lazy Hazy Dog Days of Summer from eight years ago, and oh what a journey down memory lane. Strongly familiar, but now so far out of my grasp or influence, a moment in the original house several years before the wildfire, hanging out with our dear dog Emma, and working on one of my earlier knitting designs I was making for younger niece when she was soon to turn twelve. A pause for a tear. Time truly just marches on doesn’t it?

Such a lucky girl she is! A morning hike on the mountain then a flop on the nice clean bed. Whew!
Woof!
Oh goodness. It feels both like yesterday and yet a lifetime ago. Life is so friggin weird……..still, I’m glad we are both still on our mountain, and Emma is striding alongside Juno, giving her a talking to, and wondering how you put up with such a silly wild child as this.
You found the edit in, thank you! Such colossal changes for us both since back then in 2014. But yes we are still on the mountain , through thick and thin, and trial by fire, and all that they say. Oh, I do think you’re right about Emma & Juno ~~ xx
Oh, and what a great realization, to look back at the sweater on the needles at the end of summer from eight years ago, then and to look down and see that I STILL am knitting through the last weeks of summer with a sweater on the needles ! I cherish the fact.
Most indubitably! 🙂
Thank you, and I’m still pondering the thought of a two-in-one dog . . .xx
I love clean bedding, especially after a good workout. Also, that fall is in the late summer air is so wonderful and refreshing. I’m presently in Rhode Island at my daughters house spending the day with oldest, rebellious grandson and it’s such a treat. Tube weather is perfect and he’s even more so. A happy happy Monday!
Oh, that is the perfect way to spend the dog days of summer, with the grandkids! xx
