Posh


We made it sound posh, saying we have a gardener.  It sounds like we have staff, a butler and housekeeper and maid.  Downton Abbey it ain't.  Our landlord just pays a man to pop around every six weeks and keep the gardens trimmed and tidy.   Mum does all the rest.  Me - I'm security (I run and hide when anybuddy comes to the house).

  1. As the owner of a single woman, I can tell you that she is all in favor of having our yard man. Ours comes twice a month and is worth every penny! He shows up, I bark and then hide until he leaves. (Woops! Yea...I'm a dog, don't tell anyone that I read your blog!) The owner, GimLee

  2. Neither of the humans here have the time to do anything with the garden, so they have some guy come around twice a month to keep it from looking too horrible. He is definitely worth it!

  3. You haven't gone all posh on us, Poppy. The gardener frees your mum from yard work so she can spend more time with you! Absolutely essential, wouldn't you say? Kisses !

  4. Our condo corporation pays for yard work from the mom's condo fees...Except they don't take care of our private gardens, of course. But they do the rest of the trimming around the complex and usually do a pretty good job of it. :-)

  5. I bet you hide though in a lovely, well-kept garden. You are such a cutie. Have a fun day, Poppy.

  6. We know you aren't posh, Poppy and Poppy's mom. We would like to have a gardener sometimes too. It can get overwhelming.

  8. You are so lucky to have a yard person. The Male finally got one but we have a really big yard.

  9. We like that you have someone to take care of trimming the garden and such, Poppy! That means more time for your mum to spend with you! :)

  10. Poppy, we have a guy come 4-5 times a year to do a big yard "do"...sometimes it's just too much for Daddy! Besides, he has NO business climbing palm trees.

  11. My cats have staff.
    We are not posh, and the cats don't complain - as long as we do exactly as they tell us. :-)
