Running away from white

For years I've had to look at this all white-ish colors in my bathroom. The walls are a faint tan, the counter/sink is off white and the cabinets are bright white. WHY? I ask you would you paint the bathroom all about the same color? And then I ask myself, WHY have you lived with this poor decision for so long? White is a fine color. I love white. At least it matches almost everything. I actually have a lot of things that are white but things... they are a changing. It's time to add color! Bring in BOLD.

And so confirms my sucky skills of photography. But at least I've successfully run away from all white... at least for now. I can't say the rest of my crib is white-take-over free. With my historical pace it will be another few years until I reach full color potential. Plus I can't say I'm the most decisive when it comes to my style. So, now I leave you with some random photos of Suga and Toefuh to show you a little bit of their life with the FUHs.

Smells like Dog

You know when someone has a pet. Once that door opens to their home, you smell it. I ain't gonna lie. I have two smelly dogs, one that marks her territory and one that can't hold his bladder. They've gotten a lot better as far as keeping their "accidents" to specific areas but even still its frequency is quite frustrating.

Toefuh & Suga

Edwin and I continue to make small adjustments but nothing has really worked long term. With Toefuh peeing in his cage everyday, it makes for some pretty wretched laundry times. At this point it seems as if our last resort is to try to train them to go in the kitty litter. I'm not sure logistically how to make it work but Toefuh has successfully used it twice before. I guess time will tell and maybe treats will help. Since I've been slowly decluttering, cleaning and improving our home, I'd love my guests to enjoy their time here without thinking it smells or wondering, "What is that stain?" I'm itching for a game night.

NERTZ!

I am not the pack leader

All I can say is, "selective hearing."

Spring Forward

It's 7:17 a.m. ... wait 8:18 a.m.
Sleep is broken and awake I am.
Time is fast forwarded one hour 8:18 a.m.
My dogs have shat on the stairs again this a.m.
I hate picking up their dog poop in the a.m.
I turned down the a/c to 78°F at 5:57 a.m.
I don't know why I remember that, crazy I am
I'm looking forward to hanging out with my mom I am
It's funny our relationship - we've become friends yes mam
I just want to go to sleep, sleep deprived I am
I wish I could go play beach volleyball again
Thinking of Stan speeding to catch me at Main I am
Thinking of starting my taxes I am
Thinking of drinking that Coke on my stand
I'm really tired now, been up since 5:45 a.m.
Time to stop rhyming (trying) and try to sleep again.
