Mamaw slept in today—she told Poppy last night she might. She thinks she needs an extra hour—well, she was up at 8:00 which is really 7:00 so she didn’t sleep in at all.  I have to chuckle at her. But, Poppy, bless his heart, took me out to do my morning thing. When he brought me in, he had my “you know what” so he put my leash over a kitchen chair while he took it to the bathroom. Lo and Behold, I pulled the chair all the way to the living room and left “skid marks” on the carpet. While he was checking that out, I ran back and jumped on “our” waterbed! Mamaw was so happy to see me—well, I think she was. I rolled and kissed and made like I KNEW she wanted me to be here. Pretty soon she climbed out of bed. Trust me—I’ve got my ways!!!

I’ve been naughty right off the bat. I won’t leave the newspaper alone while they try to read it—in the kennel. I bark every time somebody goes by—in the kennel. I think today may not be my favorite day. We’ll just wait and see. Cause even the walk was a no-nonsense type of thing today. She’s moody or something and Poppy is off to work again!

She got so disgusted with me today on our last 2 walks—I want to stiff and investigate everything and she wants me to walk, walk, walk. She told me, “If you don’t straighten out we’ll just wait till your father gets home.” I don’t think so…she knows she can’t do that either. But when Poppy got home, she told him that I’m just like raising kids again. Well, I did a boo-boo—I got gum in my paw. Mamaw doesn’t feel very well today and she was sort of whining about the whole thing. She got around though and grabbed the Peanut Butter and rubbed and rubbed the gum until it dissolved. Then she took me to the kitchen and put my paw in the kitchen sink and washed it off. I am then whisked off to the bathroom for a quick blow dry of the paw. What a day—and really; I think she’s about ready to go to bed!
