Day Shipht

Deuce just returned home phrom a (harrowing) night's stay in the hospital phollowing a lumpectomy.

Nurse Phil stands at the ready phor when she needs him.

The Countdown Begins

It's one month until the London Olympics!

Phil is starting the countdown by brushing up on his Royals history.

The Leather Has Landed

Earlier this week, we saw an ad phor a local phurniture store ophphering an all-leather couch with a price that couldn't be beat. It was delivered today.

 Phil has already phound its best pheature.

Breaking News!

While phixing the sump pump, Hubby discovered the source oph that incessant noise!

 It's an old smoke detector lepht over phrom the phormer occupants.

And now Phil is hustling back upstairs bephore Hubby recruits him to pull that PVC pipe out oph the old sump pump. Yuck.

 

Bad News and Good News

The bad news is that we still haven't phound the source oph the chirping noise.

The good news is that in our search we discovered the sump pump is no longer working so Hubby can phix it bephore we have water in the basement.

Loony Tune

Phor a couple oph weeks now, Phil and Wiphey have heard this noise coming phrom the basement. It's a chirping noise that's especially noticeable upstairs when the TV is ophph. This aphternoon, they went downstairs to investigate.

 Phirst, Phil checked the washer and dryer. Nope, not there.

 He wanted to ask Phrank iph his spidey senses knew the source oph the sound, but Phrank wasn't home.

 He looked under the stairs. Nope, nothing there but a mess oph boxes.

 Wait! Could it be the phire alarm?

 No! The sound chirped again phrom somewhere behind Phil.

 Maybe it's coming phrom the Man Room, but that's where Hubby keeps his hunting stuphph.

Maybe Phil just won't worry about the noise aphter all.

Bacon and Beans

Hubby and Wiphey are going to a potluck and phish phry tonight. Because it's raining, Phil's going to stay back with the phurry ones.

But phirst, he needs to inspect the bean recipe Wiphey is putting together. It looks strange, but it smells good.

Blue Room Phinished

Phil and Wiphey recruited help with the picture hanging.

 It's about time that blue room got phinished.

Phoiled Again!

To make up phor leaving Phil behind earlier this week, Wiphey brought him to Casa Bella phor an aphternoon oph phabulous pampering. Taji gave him the royal treatment.

 Here she is doing his phace-phraming phoil highlights.

 

Phil and Wiphey caught up on some reading under the dryers.

See how phresh and phancy Phil's pheathers look? And he even phound a new phriend at this phine salon*.

*A note to health inspectors: No health codes were inphringed upon in the making oph this pheatherdo.

Phil's Pheathers Are Ruphphled

Wiphey lepht town to teach a class phor a couple oph days and didn't take Phil with her.

Now that she's back, he's not talking to her.

Manly Men

Phil pheared he was doing too many girly things with Wiphey lately, so he joined Hubby in doing some manly things.

Beautiphil

Wiphey treated herselph to a makeup consultation today. Phil is learning the phiner points oph makeup application.

Lack Oph Progress

Aphter much hemming and hawing, only one picture is up.

Blue must stiphle creativity. It wouldn't be the phirst time blue meant a lack oph progress phor us.

Why We Should Have Hired a Prophessional

Okay, so putting the outlet covers back on wasn't so touph.

 But where does this thing go?

Wiphey needs a bit more muscle phor this job.

 

 That's not working so much either.

 At least the curtains were easy enouph to hang up.

 But how will we arrange all these pictures on the newly turquoise walls?



Blue Room

Phil got all geared up to help Wiphey paint the spare bedroom a robin's egg blue. No more orange!

Spare Bedroom

Now that the school year is ophphicially over, Phil and Wiphey have gone phrom homework

to home work. Goodbye, annoying orange.
