After M left I started thinking bed sounded good, then realized the shelties probably needed walked.

So I have enough extenda leads for all the shelties except Breeze, who doesn't move too fast anyway.

That is my next silly stunt for the evening!!!! I take 5 dogs out at the same time, 4 of them on 26 foot extendable leads!!!!!!!!!! Any guesses how many times they wrapped me and each other up????

Shara finally potties and Frostbyte, I figure Shimmer doesn't need to go as much as I cleaned up in the hall and Tara nor Breeze went. Breeze didn't worry me but Tara seems to have a problem here lately and I certainly didn't need any more accidents in the new house!

Go back in and realize they had tracked onto the carpet as there are damp spots on it. Wipe it up then decide to get the Odo Ban and put some on damp paper towel and go over carpet just to try to make sure there is no scent left.

FINALLY Bed!!!!! Still no lights in there, and I had forgotten my nightgown and the night light even that goes in the bathroom. Soooooo I find something to wear and go in the bathroom to change where the light is and shut the door since I still have no blinds or curtains in any of the rooms. Of course all 5 shelties had to come in with me. I then close the bedroom door so they aren't wandering around all night.

Shimmer gets in bed right beside me and the others are wandering around just checking the room out. Not real conducive to sleep and my back is still aching something awful. Then the pigs start banging their feeders and the shelties are all wanting to try to see what the noise is they hear.

Finally everyone gets fairly settled and I did go to sleep for a bit. Have no idea what time it is so when the get restless later and wake me up figure it is time to get up as they are usually pretty accurate time keepers.

I get up get dressed and go to walk them, clock in kitchen says 1:00. Great I have been in bed for about 3 hours, no wonder I feel so tired still. I walk them two at a time this time, worked much better.

Go back to bed, and finally everyone settles again. Get woke up later when the train comes through. Frostbyte actually hangs his feet over the edge of the headboard to get closer to the windows trying to see what is out there.

I still have no idea on time and just decide to lay there till it starts getting light out, which I did. Then walked the shelties again, ate my bagel realized I had no cups to fix the stuff I had brought and then just lay down on the sofa for a bit thinking it was good for the kids to check the house out again in the daylight. Shimmer was looking around some this time. I think I actually fell asleep for just a bit as they woke me barking at the ice maker again.

I hadn't brought their food so we loaded up to come back to PK for them to have breakfast. They all seemed really pleased to be back home. I hope they get adjusted pretty soon to the other house!

BTW: I am sitting here writing and drinking coffee and they are all sleeping, maybe I should wake them so they will sleep tonight!!!!!!!!
