Mom's new project

Mom came up with a brilliant idea. (Totally unlike her!)  Since it is so very hot and we can't go anywhere, she decided to start organizing her old pictures.  This could go on for months.   She didn't realize how many she had in the plastic basket until she got started.  Now there are piles all over the table in the living room.  At least this should give her something to do!  It's supposed to be about 100 degrees all week or at least feel like it.  


Angel's eyes went crazy while snoopervising.


I think at this point, Angel ran back upstairs.  Mom quit the project for awhile.  It's slow going!  After she took the pictures with Angel, she continued and now has about 30 little piles on that one table.  I'd say she has a mess on her hands!


This is our backyard.  Grass...dead.  I laid out there for maybe 2 minutes.


Trying to find some shade.  Decided after a minute to come back inside!



Back to the project and this was hours of work later.  Mom is thinking she started something she might be working on forever.   It doesn't look like it, but she said there really is a method to her organizing the pictures.  Sure mom!


What a beautiful dog!

Hobo with his good friend.



At the Fire Station.

Mom decided to see if the scanner worked.  It did.  This was a dog that belonged to a firefighter friend of mom's many years ago.   He worked long shifts and she wanted to be sure his dog got to have friends and fun while his dad was at work.   She said that dog was a beauty.   Mom would stop on the way to the country and pick up her friend's dog and take him with Hobo to play and have fun. 

Have a Great Day!
Lots of Love to All!!!!

Our Mom gave up on picture sorting - she thought it might be a project for last Winter, but we had puppies instead -a lot more fun!

We think Mom is having fun and a good project to work on while it is so hot outside. But our Mom said she would be very rich if she had a dollar for every time she started to reorganize her photos.

Hobo is handsome.
