Domestic Man-Diva


On the bright side of being jobless I have been able to get a lot of things done around the house. Not as much as I'd like, but more than usual. General cleanup, a little home repair, and such. Fortunately the huskies are only too happy to supervise, right up until I pull the vacuum cleaner out, that is. Big Brave Yukon is pretty much afraid of everything, including dust mops, plastic bags, foot stools, and many, many other household conveniences. I have to admit to a bit of cruelty here, I like to rattle the handle of the vacuum cleaner once in a while just to watch him hit the ceiling. It is funny in a twisted sort of way.

The Wx is gorgeous - in the 80's. This is what I signed on for. It will get colder and even hit freezing (at night) later in the season. Still no sign of rain, however, and that is disconcerting. Though this is a desert some rain does fall and every drop is precious.

Hope you all are having a great day!!

yeah it is a nice photo you were always good at that. i didnt know you lost your job -well it is endemic. i could fill this com box with tales of woe all around me. i started selling art out of the back of my truck which i kinda like. anyway, its IS nice with time to apply to the home front. i am sure the dogs love alpha home even if he does torment with the vacuum.

its good to see ya, PhoKid.

Lovely photo Phossy dear, I would love to see it in colour, the green contrasting against the blue sky and white clouds would be very nice.

We have had some thunderstorms, heavy rain and light hail in some places, the garden is loving it...hope you get some rain soon.

And no teasing that poor dog, that is not nice.
My kitties don't mind the vacuum cleaner, they also like to chase the broom, the floor mop, they love my green shopping bags and the rare plastic bag that come into the house.
When I'm cleaning the bathroom, like the shower, bath and vanity I have to close the door otherwise I will have three helpers as they like water. ♡

Watch out - you'll come home one day and the vacuum will be chewed to bits and nobody will admit to it.
