I did this last Thursday and it was not fun. The whole bottom of our house is tile.
No tile here thankfully, but my SO has to take the dog outside so I can vacuum and mop or else I get barked at the whole time.
Ours cower at the edge of whatever room we're vacuuming. Mopping the shih tzu follows me trying to lick the water off the floor, so he has to be kept out. The JRT just watches me like "da fuq you doing?".
Oddly, the JRT is terrified of the broom. Any sweeping at all just sends her into a complete anxiety attack.
*sigh* H just informed me that I got double paid yesterday. Now I get to spend Monday trying to figure out why I got two paychecks for almost the exact same amount (they're off by a penny from each other, for some reason...).
Also, @led, I like that you are the siggy police. Someone's got to do it. Beginning of the month is always the worst because everyone gets new siggies and people don't realize they're huge.
That is so funny I was just talking to MH about renting a house there next year and we are looking at rentals as we speak! Get outta my head!
I'm thinking on going down there over NYE this year. I found a gorgeous rustic cottage with its only shower outdoors. I'm trying to talk MH into it.
Ohhh I never thought of it for NYE! I love places like that in the off season. MH and I go to Nantucket in the winter once a year and I loooove when it's quiet like that. I hope you can talk YH into it!

Roland doesn't mind the broom thankfully, but he barks at the vacuum and steam mop. He follows me around lunging and barking at it, then runs away if I go near him. He generally will get used to the steam mop after a few minutes but not the vacuum. He is an 80lb scaredy cat.
Let's just say I don't vacuum as often as I should.

FIL's lhasa apso used to also lunge and bark at the vacuum. She'd bark, lunge and then run away as fast as she could. Lather, rinse, repeat. It was hilarious to watch. But definitely annoying if you were the one vacuuming.

I skipped breakfast this morning. We're currently at my in-laws house for a family cookout. It's 1:45 and we haven't eaten anything. I should learn from my past visits that when they say we're eating at 1 it's going to be more like 3:30 but alas, here I am. I'm super crabby today, probably from a lack of food and the heat.

rablissful - my dogs don't like the vacuum either (which also translates into not vacuuming as often as we should). They're not really scared of it, but they will watch it intently the entire time the vacuum is on. And they will run away if the vacuum gets too close to their viewing spot. haha

I just went and checked out a public pool in the city. I never even knew they existed but Philly has 71! All that free water that I've been missing out on.
It was full of happy, cooled people. There was a line because hot as balls here but I'm going back tomorrow!
I'm sitting at penn station waiting for lunch. Nom nom nom
I got stuff from TJ Maxx to organize my baking pans int the cabinet and I'm overly excited. I also ate all the samples at Sam's club and have been blaring JT and Nelly in the car. So nice running errands without DH. His eye looks like a balloon animal.

Just think of all that pee. Public pools are the worst thing since ever.

I grew up in and around pools. I love them. No one had private pools - all swim clubs around here!
