I was at work very early (for me) today and this week. Shifting to a summer schedule of longer days four days a week, without the official say so, to see if anyone even notices.

I started a new nighttime policy for the dogs: if they want to come into the house overnight they can, but when someone says they want out at 3am they're out for the rest of the night and will sleep in the garage. Zeke has been acting like there is a revolving door lately and I'm tired of being awakened two or three times. Cinnamon knows if she wants to stay put she has to hold it. Poppy has followed Zeke out a couple of times and been left outside. They can do the math, so it'll be interesting to see what evolves. :)

Poppy and Zeke are blowing their winter coats like I've never seen before. I brush and brush and next time I look Poppy, in particular, looks like an explosion of hair again. My declutter work needs to include a fine-tooth comb soon. The furminator thing works on Zeke but not on Poppy. I have to pull out the tufts from her coat my hand.

I'll be spending some evenings with the iron and the magazine labels this week. When that project is finished I'll have my dining room table back.
