Sometimes the things that are closest to us are the easiest to put on the back burner. 🤎
I started today with four dogs on my schedule, and somehow my four-dog day turned into no dogs at all. Not exactly how I planned on spending my Monday. 😂
So instead of worrying about it, I decided to use the unexpected day to catch up on some things that have been slipping away from me lately—laundry and, most importantly, my own boy.
I spend my days worrying about everyone else’s babies, and sometimes mine ends up being the one who waits. Tater is normally groomed about every 8 weeks, but somehow we made it closer to 11 this time. Every week it was, “I need to get Tater done…” and then there was always something or someone else that needed me first.
Well, today was finally his day. ❤️
And underneath all that fluff, I found my ridiculously long-legged Standard Poodle again. 😂 Everyone tells me how big their Standard Poodle is and I always think, “But have you met Tater Tot?”
Life gets busy. Things slip away from us sometimes. Today I’m choosing to be thankful for an unexpectedly slow day, clean laundry, and some much-needed time spent taking care of one of my own. 🤎
