Sassy the Love Bug

Tales (tails?) of high adventure from Sassy, the lovable Lhasa....

It's been a busy day today...and it's only half over. Mom sure knows how to pack a lot into a day. We live in Phoenix, so it's not as cold as in some parts of the country, but this time of year it gets pretty chilly at night and in the early mornings and in between warming up throughout the day. So, this morning I decided I'd take advantage of the down comforter being within my reach and I decided to curl up in it and stay cozy warm while Mom had her morning latte.

We have a lot of orders to make for swankypet.net, so we spent a couple of hours printing packing slips and shipping labels, cutting fabric and ironing. Then we took a mid-day stroll through our new neighborhood. We've recently moved from the city to the 'burbs, which is nice because we have a park near by. Lots to sniff and bark at along the route. It's always a lot of fun to go with my two sisters, Java The Mutt (12 year old Pom/Schipperkee) and 2 year old Merlot - a black and tan Chihuahua (hiding in the background).

We took a very long walk, so now I'm beat...but there is no time to rest...I have to help Mom sew all of the orders. As you can see my version of helping is laying by the sewing machine foot pedal and demanding a belly rub. I'm wondering how long the sewing will take before we have earned our kibble.......
