3 day weekend.

back to work today after a three day weekend. as per my usual, i accomplished 80% of what i intended to do in the last 20% of the weekend (3-day or not). at least my yard is mowed, cleaned up, new plants are situated (although not planted), new psuedo-king bed (2 twins butted against each other in a king frame with a king mattress pad & cover) is set up, dishes are washed, clothes are washed, rugs are vacuumed, and i'm sure there's stuff i did that i forgot i did that should be on that list.
also saturday i babysat a friend's 7 mo old gsd puppy (luna) and in order to keep her extremely tired for the whole night, i took the dogs hiking at south mountain. ainsley had a friggin' blast running through the woods, bouncing up the hills, chasing other dogs, and (YES) swimming in the creek! luna had to stay on-leash because i had no idea how she'd react. she was awesome! she had such a good time. she was so funny and cute and listened to me so well! she's growing up! i took them to south mtn off-leash dog park afterwards and they played more. we then drove around taking a bit of a scenic drive before heading home and sacking out by the firepit in the yard. i really enjoyed seeing the fall colors especially the blazing reds mixed in with the yellows and greens.
took ainsley to brookdale dog park the next day after walking around our neighborhood. she was so tired she didn't play too much.
today, i am the one who is tired before the day has even started.
happy tuesday!
