Painting

I'm in the process of painting the bedroom, and Mocha is all discombobulated!  I moved her bed to the opposite corner of the room (temporarily), and I thought she was okay with it:

Temporary relocation

She was fine until bed time.  After lights out, I heard her get up and come around to where her bed used to be.  So I said, "I'll fix it!", and I moved her bed back to the normal location for the night.  Now I'll have to move it again to do the second coat of paint on that wall!

Mocha likes to lie in the sun, but sometimes, there can be too much of a good thing:

Too much sun

Today is another sunny day!  Still cool right now, so I'm going to paint early and hike later.

Monday

Today started out with a 1/2 circle walk for Mocha.  She didn't see any friends, just some squirrels and some good sniffin' from overnight visitors.

When we got home, she was ready for her morning nap.  It's tough to sleep when it's sunny outside.

Trying to get some sleep

Later when she was out again, a man across the street (doing some work for a neighbor) asked how old she was.  People often mistake her for a young Rottweiler because she is small.  So I told him she was 8, and he said he had won a stuffed Rottie toy at Hershey Park last weekend!  She went over to him and allowed him to admire her.

After that, she was ready to find some sunshine inside, instead of being out in the actual sunshine.

Sunshine is good

She watched me paint for a little while, but that was so boring that she went downstairs and, you guessed it, took a nap.

Mocha J's Sunny Day

It was a sunny day for Mocha.  She doesn't like to go very far on her walks when it's sunny out, or should I say hot.  She likes the winter sun just fine.

Mocha started off her last walk of the day by sitting by the coreopsis:

Mocha looks like she's squinting from the sun!

We walked down the street, and she stared across at her  nemesis' yard (she always has to check and make sure she see's him if  he's out).  No such luck today.

 After that, we walked back home, and she was a hot girl:

After her cooldown, she will be ready to eat.

Rainy Day Nap Day

It's a rainy, cloudy day - perfect for a long nap for Mocha J!  She had a very early walk, in between the heavy rain times.

She got to see Sydney yesterday (and was not a polite girl).  She has been better with Pookie, and she is fine with Dexter and Maddie.  But I realized recently that Mocha would probably be quite content if she never sees another dog.  She is a people dog, not a dog's dog.

A few turtles have been laying eggs in our yard, and Mocha was sniffing them out.

She saw this one, but dad didn't let her get too close.

Happy June!
