You know it only takes a little peri-menopause and a little rain on a day filled with obligations to really remind me that my job is no more glamorous than that of a trash collector - and even they have the crap collected and bagged for them. It is raining, the dogs are in their runs outside running through their excrements far quicker than I can get to it while I madly clean inside, it is too muddy to let them run in the fields and now they will all stink from the poop soup they have up to the elbows! So now I have to have them in the house with people coming and I surely do not have time to bathe them all. I really do not want to fall short of the expectations of others but  I think that no matter how hard I try or how much time I have (or not!) I cannot win this challenge today.  Thus far all the crates are cleaned and the floors are bleached but there is much left to do. Why not throw in the towel and just declare the house off limits just for today? You know... quit while I am behind?  Humm... a worthy consideration. 

To add to my frustrations from the weather (and never sleeping from hot flashes!) I have bitches in season and if it continues to rain they will be in for that part of the day and that will make us all miserable. I will tell you this... breeding dogs is hard, dirty work and not for wimps!

My first cup of coffee is almost gone, so I am on the move again, but not before I remind myself that this is what I really love and just one of those days MOMENTS. I am going to try to smile and play good music to pick myself up.

I think I will choose to be grateful and quit complaining. Maybe with a better attitude the day will improve.

Have a grateful day!
