Well, well, well…welcome to the last week of October. Goodness gracious…I blinked and first September and now October, have flashed by in a heartbeat. We’re finally receiving some long awaited rain (it’s been raining since 1 AM this morning). Southwest Colorado has been flooding for the past three days but we only received cooler temps. Yesterday’s low was 36F (2.2C) with a high of the mid-50’sF (13.3C). It feels good entering sweater weather finally. Poor Wilson looked at me when we walked outside for the early morning bathroom break like I was insane. He immediately dropped down to a prone position once outside but think the umbrella intimidated him more than the threat of being wet. Even his favorite potty spot didn’t speed up his process. He just stood there with his head hanging low, looking pitiful. I was finally able to encourage him enough to start his day and then he happily raced back to the house for the comfort of his dry bed where he’s now snoozing after enjoying a tasty breakfast. Our morning walk should be ‘interesting.’ Wish us luck.
Anyway, let’s start this week with a little smile. We found another sign from our friend, Vince The Sign Guy and hope you enjoy it.
Have a great Monday and an even better Halloween week.
Live, love, bark! 🐾
Wow, that is an extreme change in temps. I’m looking forward to this week being over. I really am not keen on Halloween. Get Bonfire Night out of the way, of which the village where I live played a big part in the whole Guy Fawkes story, and then we start rolling towards Christmas, which I very much enjoy. Have a good week 😀
It absolutely flew by! September and October – ZZZZZZIP!
I cannot believe my baby is 27 today.
That is a great sign! Have a fabulous week!
we are n0 fans of rain either… and we got a lot of this wet stuff…. can we send it to the bermuda triangle please?
Stop blinking. You’re making the earth spin faster. But yes! How the heck did it get to be almost November?! This time of year I always Lament the passing of time. After all these years (caused by too much blinking 🙃) you’d think I’d just go with the flow.
Good luck with the wet potty times and walks with Wilson! Even my “water dogs” are reluctant at times to get their precious golden fur wet. Here’s to the 4th side of the Bermuda Rectangle showing up; I bet Earhart stole it!
Have a good week. The next one will be here in the blink of your eye. 😉
Ha…loved the Earhart observation. Dogs, especially those with long ears don’t appreciate rain.
The older I get the quicker time seems to pass. But dang…the past two months just blasted past me. More important than ever to enjoy each moment. Here’s to a pawsome Monday with ear rubs for the Golden Girls.
I’m happy you are finally getting rain! It won’t be long before Wilson will be happy to be out and about again.
Thanks. I was surprised it rained most of the night. Yay. I’m almost sad that our walk will mean his wet paws won’t be white for long. Sigh. But we definitely need the moisture so I’ll just have to deal with it. He looks so pristine after last week’s groom but not for long-we’re headed out shortly. Have a great Monday.
Wilson is very smart. Winter is coming.
Love the funny. I laughed out loud.
I linked this post to my Awww Mondays blog hop.
Have a fabulous day and week. Love and hugs to you and lots of scritches to handsome and smart Wilson. ♥
The lad really does not like getting wet. I feel badly for him. You should have seen his pitiful face this morning. Glad you enjoyed today’s smile and as always, ever so grateful to be added to your hop. Thanks, Sandee! Have a fantastic Monday.
time has a way of just fleeting by ~ so little control in this life~ like rain!
Hugs^_^
Boy, that’s an understatement! The older I get, the quicker it seems to pass. Have a ‘wagnificent’ Monday!
He is a clever boy. I agree about the blink and October disappears!
I thought September flew by but October has literally zoomed past us. I had hoped things would slow down but it doesn’t seem like it much. Enjoy your Monday.
We had a wonderful lab for many years who absolutely would not go out into the rain until he simply couldn’t hold it anymore. A lab….as in water dog. Obviously he didn’t get the memo.
Dogs whose ears are long or fold over especially dislike rain since the sound of drops are amplified by the physiology of their ears which act like a megaphone. I don’t mind holding the umbrella over Wilson but he is so skeptical of that contraption. Silly boy. Have a great Monday.
I find it amusing that an OES doesn’t like rain, what would his ancestors think?! 😀 Love the sign. 🙂
I know, right? Norman didn’t like rain (or snow) either. Guess we’ve domesticated the moors right out of their DNA. 😉 Enjoy a terrific Monday.
Love that sign!
Poor Wilson. Rainy days are touch on some dogs Our first dogs love the rain and loved being wet, but she was the only one. I imagine Wilson collects a fair amount of water in that coat. Sounds like a nap is in order.
Yeah, rain is not friendly for dogs, especially those whose ears are longer and fold over. The sound of raindrops gets amplified. I have yet to have a dog who enjoyed rain. Luckily he has a good waterproof jacket for wet days. Have a great Monday!
Mom’s the one that despises rain around here. We hounds don’t care if we get wet or not. It’s a rainy dismal day again today, hoping the sun will be back tomorrow. Great joke about the triangle!
The sky is as thick as pea soup and while I’d prefer it not to be raining, I’m thrilled we received a nice soaking during the night. We so need it! Glad you enjoyed today’s smile. We hope the sun returns soon for fun adventures for you all. Happy Monday.
