Lucky is eager! PB is never NOT eager!
Well, I think it was a pretty close competition... PB's enthusiasm is definitely hard to beat - she is psychotic about fetch time. And her stamina!! Holy cow, it goes on forever. She did have Lucky beat in that area, but she does this on a daily basis and WON'T STOP until I drag her off the fetching field. PLUS, she did have the home meadow advantage...
But one thing that PB lacks that Lucky has, is a brain. PB didn't really figure out too quickly that yes! Someone ELSE can throw the ball other than Stacie. Also, if PB figured out that getting a wee bit of a head start instead of bouncing around 2 inches from me, then spinning in circles as I throw(and 90% of the time she spins into me, thus throwing off both of our balances!)... she'd be much more challenging to her competitors.
Here she is, under Dave's feet. Figured out HE throws the ball too, but still needs to work on respecting the human's bubble.
In other news, I'm working hard on my bathroom!!
Walls are primed and I must say, I'm totally getting the hang of this drywall thing. I'm actually LOVING mudding and taping, what is wrong with me. Oh I know, I have no life.
Primer on! And no lumpy humps like in my first drywalling attempt upstairs. I even did my first corner here. If you think it's lumpy, it's NOT! I hadn't painted the corner with primer before this photo was taken. Just sayin' - not like I'm all sensitive about it or anything... :)
I freakin' love the smell of primer.
And my water tank finally arrived from Edmonton, yippee!!! It's a 250-gallon cylindrical bad-boy that I know I'm going to love.
Welcome to your new home! I hope you enjoy it here as much as we enjoy you! (my back especially!)

Hey, that looked like our Jeep in the first picture - exactly the same color. Only a little less dirty.
Uh - and their is nothing fun about drywall except getting the work finished.
Have you built a cistern to capture your water yet? I assume you're not having it hauled in. I feel excited for you. Oh yes, a septic tank too???
Nice job on the walls! Congrats on your water tank! I have been asking for a water tank for a couple of years, it's funny though because I don't need one at all. I worked at a big horse barn where they were a necessity, and I can't get over the idea of getting one. It's amazing how much of taking care of horses and dogs is the same. I even use the stall forks to pick up poop.
does that water tank have baffles in it ? i used to drive tanker trucks and when fluid gets sloshing around it can tip you over... 250 gallons of water x 8 lbs a gallon... just sayin'
Thundering - maybe it's just me, but I love mudding. Yes, the end product is great too!
Anon - I'll be hauling water. That tank is the indoor tank.
Sibefam - yeah, similar in that they both use up LOADS of water eh?
Hansragnar - this tank is merely for holding water, not hauling. It'll be inside. I'll be hauling much smaller tanks! Yeah, water is heavy eh!?? I have to reinforce my floor before I bring that one in.
Stacy! can i come and do a painting on your wall!
