Got er done. I am exhausted. Able to put conditioner on both Rosie and I this am.
Rare I have what it takes to do this.
Rosie always changes shades of black when I give her a shower.
Bathroom floor also got a bath. I just put towels down as I don't have what it takes to mop up the water.
Not sure how they do the pomp on the tails and ears...assuming it is due to blow drying.
Not sure I will have what it takes to blow dry Rosie's ears or tail.
She had a burr stuck to her. Wtg until I have the strength to cut it out.
But, next step is to try and shave her face and find someone to clip her nails...then shave her feet.
She does need an all over shave but for now I am hoping I have what it takes to do the above first along with pullng the hair out of her ears and cleaning her ears.

Rosie had no patience. She wanted to get out and kick up her heals outdoors.
she ran to the lobby and started barking at me to let her out the door. I have never seen her do that.
But, we usually head outside after she has had a bath. I was hoping I could rest first but no.
So, out we went. It is going to be hot today.
I tried to blow dry Rosie's ears adn tail so it would be fluffly like it is after she gets back from teh groomers.
I wasn't able to hold the blow dryer long enough to do so.
the hair on her ears is also matted. Not sure what to do about that. I put a lot of conditioner on her ears hoping that would help but it didn't.
I also tried to trim her ears and the hair around her eyes.
She has lots of hair in her ears that needs to be plucked out.
But, that is all I am able to do so far today.
I was able to pick the towels up off the floor and hung them over the rack to dry.
Resting now...then breakfast will be in order. Wondering how long it is going to take me to recover.
I also tried to use the brush they suggest for poodles but once again it seemed to do nothing.
And I tried one of my combs...that didn't do much either for the ears adn tail.
I still have things to pikc up that I dropped while trying to get the blow dryer out and the brush etc...it can wait.

Jenni, at his worst time, my husband was spending 90% of his time in bed. This was before he was diagnosed.
He's now able to be up and around. He still has a ways to go, but he's gettin' there!!

My sweet husband took me to a friend's memorial service Saturday even when he didn't want to... he was tired. Even he was glad we went. Afterward, I thanked him profusely for taking me.
With my saying it thru tears, he truly got the message!!
And a dear friend took me shopping at Kohl's today!! I haven't been anywhere to actually SHOP since early last winter! (grocery stores don't count!!)
She pushed me around in a wheelchair and I bought hubby some shirts and got some warm socks for me.
OH.. and GRATEFUL that someone came to our aid very quickly when the battery in her car went on the blink!!
What a blessing!
-- PS.. the memorial service was about 25+ miles away. Thankfully, I was able to walk right in to the room where the gathering was held. (no long distance to walk)
