Scribbles About Life: My Dog and his Snowman

So I was going to post something different today... but this story is just too cute... so I need to share it.

My dog, Spencer was looking at the dining room table trying to get something the other day, and it was these snowball things we had. We weren't sure at first but we gave him one of these and he was happy.

He was REALLY happy with it though. He wouldn't take it out of his mouth, except every once and a while he would put it down and just stare at its face. It was like he was in love with it or something, it was so cute! He's a maltese, and I think he thought the snowman looked like him and maybe he thought it was like his doggy mommy or his sisters, but he just loved it! It was the cutest thing.

And these aren't really dog toys, they're very easy for him to get open and tear the stuffing out... so we'll only let him have it if we're home and if we notice he's tearing it open we'll take it away from him. And when I did take it away last night he was so heartbroken, he was looking for it more... so I ended up giving him another one cause they come in a little set with like 5 snowballs. And he was happy again. He was pretty tired though, so he just sort of cuddled next to it.

He's just so sweet and so playful with these little snowmen that I needed to share the story and I just think its cute.

And again, I wouldn't recommend just giving these to your dogs because that is not what they're made for... make sure you're paying attention to them and don't leave your dog home alone with these out because they might start to eat the fur and choke... but its cute.

Ohhh another thing that I think Spencer likes about the snowmen is the rosy cheeks. Maltese dogs can get stains on their faces, and its nothing too bothersome, the vet said it isn't serious. You can kind of comb them out, but Spencer doesn't like that and would bite our fingers off if we tried. There are pills and other things that they say work... none of it really works. Its all a gimmick... in dog shows they bleach them... but we aren't doing that. My last dog never had that either and he was also a maltese... idk what causes it... but I don't think its a big deal. Anyway, back on topic I think he thinks the rosy cheeks are like the stains on his face.


Also here is a cute picture of Spencer if you're like "Shannon, you talked about a cute dog this whole post... but there are no pictures of cute dogs in here. I need some more cute in my life!"


And here are some more pictures... just for good measure.

When he was being cuddly. 

He let me pick him up when we were hanging out one day. 

Spencer appreciates that Too Faced doesn't test on animals, so he tried to grab the Cyber Monday Mystery Bag. 

him as a baby! So tiny! 

and here he is chillin with Woodstock. 

Bye! Hope you found this adorable!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...
