Dixie-and-DustynAs I said a couple weeks ago we were transitioning our dogs to the new Purina ProPlan Bright Mind food that is available at PetSmart. Our dogs have been eating the Purina Bright Mind for a few weeks now and I have noticed that they are interacting more with the boys. They seem to be enjoying playtime more. Before they just wanted to lay around all day, now they look forward to the boys getting home from school so that they can play together.

DudleyOur dogs are 10 and 11 so they are definitely considered to be seniors. Purina Pro Plan Bright Mind contains enhanced botanical oils shown to promote alertness and mental sharpness in dogs seven and older with visible results within 30 days. When food that contain these enhanced botanical oils is added to the daily diet of senior dogs it helps promote memory, attention and trainability.

Here is a video using the GoPro on Kenny’s quadcopter and some of the dogs wearing it chasing Dustyn around. They have been having so much fun playing some games that they used to play together. Dustyn enjoys throwing food and letting Dudley catch it, but Dudley hadn’t been wanting to do that before. It is nice to see them interacting together more.

Savings Alert!
Now if you Spend $10 on any Purina Pro Plan Dry Dog or Cat Food* at PetSmart between 8/31 and 10/4, you can save $10 on your next Purina Pro Plan Dry Food purchase, 14-lb. or more, on or before 11/1.

    Enjoyed the video and seeing Dustyn run around with your dogs. So nice to have a big yard to do that in! We don't have dogs, but one very old (15yr) cat and love Purina products.

    Awwwww! Your lab looks so similar to my dog Baloo! He's half Newfoundland/black lab mix so he's got a lot of lab in him. I love posts about dogs, they are definitely family and always hold a special place in my heart. I am glad that they are enjoying the new food and are becoming even more playful!

Plus, he researched for hours how to do ceramic coating so now the paint is protected and it should be easier to keep clean. The photo does not do it justice. It’s super slick and shiny.

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
