Quiet around here

With half the puppies gone, it's so different!  Five are quite manageable.  They can all climb into your lap at once, you can keep track of them--and actually shut the front door.  Which is perfect, because today it suddenly got cold, cold, cold--ice on the deck kind of cold.  So they all went out, and they all came in, and they all went out again, and they all came in, and I put some paper by the front door, but so far everybody's been good and hasn't even used that.  Of course it's only 8:30.

Mom's excited about the condo move.  We signed the contract last week, and have inspection and appraisal this week.  She's especially looking forward to remodeling.  That will be fun.  Think we'll get some new carpet downstairs ourselves...and maybe take out the built-ins from 20 years ago and get something from Pottery Barn.

Hope all the puppies who have gone home are doing well!!!
