Today is Follow-up Friday hosted by Jodi from Heart Like A Dog.  This is where we review the week behind so that we can launch into the week ahead (or something like that).

Weeks fly by like hummingbirds.  I know they have been here, but they are so fast that all I see these days is a blur.

Caturday started the week with the joker of the house, Nine, in one of his manly poses.  He is always being silly and cracking us up.  I really appreciate that since Noel is very serious most of the time, and Stella, she just is so quiet, you have to really go look for her to get much interaction.

Black and White Sunday, was finally a decent fall shot of Sofie Bear.  I love fall pictures of the animals.  The earth is colorful and they just always look like they are happy.  Well, they are actually, because the air is crisp, not cold, and there are lots of things to chase and pounce on.

We carved a cat pumpkin.

I have been telling, and showing you the new puppy next door, Zelda.  On Monday Mischief,  I was able to catch some shots of her playing with Louise’s tail.  Lulu is tolerating her very well.  Sofie stays about 40 yards away.  Puppies are just happiness exemplified.

There was a beautiful cat named Toby at the shelter this week.  He is a senior with a wonderful disposition and needs to find a wonderful family to match.  Thank you to so many people for reblogging/sharing on Facebook and Twitter.  I know in my heart that helps. Thank you.

And to continue the Thanks on Thankful Thursday, I gave you an update on Louise’s condition.  I am so thankful for medicine, especially when it is working.  My beautiful baby is feeling much better, and I am thankful every day.

Mom, can you get me a new office chair?

And now it is Friday,  How did that happen.

Fan Note: I am getting ready to go to China for a month to work.  As a newly self-employed person, I take work where I can get it and this job is in Shenzhen, China (which is near Hong Kong).  I am very excited because I have not been to either city before, but a month away is a really long time (I have never been gone for that long).  I do not know if I will be able to do the regular daily blog hops, but I am setting the DogDaz Zoo daily posts up so that they will continue until I return. 

I still do not have my brand new computer fixed yet (this has been a nightmare).  Now, at day 17 of not having it work and 3 repair attempts, they are finally sending me a new one (but it is a different/lesser model – but I said yes anyway, because I just want a working computer at this point).  Let’s hope it gets here before I go. 

The dogs are going to Sonja the Petsitter for the month and the cats will be home with V.  With all the medicine for Louise and the need for daily attention (they are used to me being home all the time), I thought it best they be around a pack of dogs (she has 4 Dalmations, a Cocker, and the Mix) and people who can interact more during the day.  I am sure they will have some interesting TAILs when I return.

I will keep blogging at least until next Friday when I hope to leave.  Sorry to miss the fall color, but hopefully, I will see it on your blogs.

That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us.  Check out the hop below and you can go play with others.

Today is Follow-up Friday hosted by Jodi from Heart Like A Dog.  This is where we review the week behind so that we can launch into the week ahead (or something like that).

When you think things could not get worse, your system board on your brand new laptop computer blows up and everything goes black.  Gee – it is not even 90 days old.  Well, at least it is still under warranty, but now I am without it for a few weeks while they ‘repair’ it.  NO FAIR!  So if my posts are spotty for a while it is because I am working on my smartphone.  Enough complaining, now to the FUF.

Last Caturday we revisited some cats of our past, Gertrude and Cuddles.  The Gnome still guards the door in their absence. 😦

Everyone liked the poster/ history lesson on Sunday on how dogs became our best friends.  They absolutely are my besties!

Monday Mischief, the doggies were waiting in the shade for summer to be over.  I think it is officially is. because it was 40 degrees this morning.

Is summer really over?

Tuesday’s Tails featured a love named Tootsie who really needs a new home.  But we also had a second post that day because of the urgent need of a senior who’s both humans died, and is living all alone in his house.  Thank you to all the people who shared on Facebook, Twitter, and their blogs.

Wordless Wednesday was a real who done it.  Noel keeps getting scratches on her pretty white nose,  I am pretty sure that it is Nine being his usual bully self, but I have not caught him yet.

Make him stop!

After I got Wednesday’s post published, I went to the kitchen and got a cup of coffee.  When I came back the computer screen was blank.  I rebooted and the machine started to boot and then turned itself off.  After a few time, it just stopped turning on all together.

And now it is computerless Friday.  I hope to keep posting but I am sure you understand the challenges.

That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us.  Check out the hop below and you can go play with others.
