The Inspectors

Olly

Last week when we were still 
able to paint before
the winds came up
and hubby 
had his knee surgery...

...we had Inspectors.

Olly finding Lizzy

They were very thorough...

Chelsea watching the cats under the plastic

checking for spills...missed spots.

Bubba

They checked under the plastic...
and checked the equipment. 



See the eye under the plastic on the left 
in the picture above?


I think they were happy with our work.



Oh oh...THE BOSS just got home from work.

That means "TREAT TIME!"



They're also the "Welcoming Committee".

Hubby's surgery went well and he should
be back at work tomorrow night.
Thanks for all the kind words and 
well wishes!

Today is our first warm calm day since
last Thursday....so you know
what I'll be doing today.

The Inspectors will be there for sure. 

I hope you have a WONDERFUL week!

Maura

    Hi Miss Maura,

    I have sole "ownership" of the "puter" today. Color me happy!!!

    Ah, The Inspectors - yes, what would we do without their "opinions"? Our two (doggies) only work for food. Giggle. And they only work when it isn't their nappy time, play time, dinner time - wait - is there any time left for work? Nope. (o:

    I love your kitties & doggies.

    Hugs,
    Prudence

    I love how thoroughly they inspect every inch! Bubba and Chelsea are so cute, and very inquisitive for dogs.
    My new kitty looks like your Olly and Lizzie. His name was Luke, but it didn't fit him and he didn't respond to it. So I named him Jax.

    We could sure use some sun around here. Can't wait to get my hands dirty.
    Have a great day, Maura

    Maybe your inspectors would like a paint brush too! At least they didn't come out with extra stripes or spots. Did your sister ever find a cottage in England?

    I'm glad that your husband's knee surgery went well. Oh those animals are so adorable. I love the photos,but especially the one of the cat peaking out from under the plastic. Our lovely pets make work so much more fun.

    Who can resist such charm?! They're a part of the family too and making sure all is well! Wish the rain would stop here long enough to get some outdoor work done...but, lucky me...I'll be enjoying your lovely outdoors!

    Hi Maura,

    Best wishes to your husband - glad to hear that he is doing better. Looks like the "inspectors" were very busy and helpful.
    Hope you can find time to paint something soon - other than walls. I know you will enjoy painting once you get started.
    Blessings,
    Erin
