Anyone know of a dog-petting service?

I am in a pretty “blah” type mood. I can’t really explain it. Nothing in particular has sparked it. I came home from work and took all of the trash out. Got all of our nasty, moldy pumpkins out in the garbage and put the can by the curb. I did up the dishes and I had all of this done by about 5:30 and I got home around 5:10. Yes, I am the bomb.. you don’t have to tell me twice ;)

Gene and I went to my parent’s house for dinner. Had spaghetti and hung out with Layla for a little while. Came home and I vaccumed the living room/hallway and straightened up the seat covers on the sofa. Put a new light bulb in the bathroom (one of them burned out) and now I am resting. I actually broke quite a sweat doing these simple things. It’s 68° out right now. Tomorrow the high is 82° so Gene and I are both taking off work early and going to come home to put up the Christmas lights on the house. Yes, I know it is early but I figured we should get them up on the roof before it gets too cold outside. Last year he was up there in 50 degree weather, freezing his butt off! Don’t worry, I wont actually turn them on until it gets closer to Christmas ;)

Astro and Emma are being wild ‘n crazy kids. I just had to yell at them to calm down. Astro is now laying on the floor, breathing like he is about to die. He isn’t an overly active dog and I think if we didn’t have Emma, he would be a total couch potato. Emma on the other hand, is one wild lady. Always playing, growling, trying to get him all riled up. They are both such sweet dogs though. Emma always, always wants to be petted and I try my best to fulfill her needs. Sometimes it seems impossible! Is there any kind of dog-petting service out there?? Anyone wanna come pet my dogs for 3-6 hours a day?? I can’t afford much but I can give you a heated/air conditioned home to do it in.

That is about it. I know, boring. Go read the blogs on my blogroll.. I promise they are 100 times more interesting!
