The day started out HOT, HOT AND HOTTER. Poppy was on the golf course before 7:00 a.m.--Mamaw was up and carryin those heavy buckets of water--tryin to save all them flowers she insisted on buyin this spring and summer. She's runnin her legs off and Poppy and I believe she's doin the best she can...could sure use a good rain and some cooler weather about now.
She got around and got really busy dustin the furniture in the basement--I jumped up on the bed to watch and make sure she did a good job--always does. Poppy says she's the "fussiest lady he's ever met." When she got done with all that, upstairs we go...
And, into the shower she goes! Then she gets into her closet and pulls some pretty nice clothes out and I KNEW SHE WAS LEAVIN ME. She thinks givin me that "special chew thing Becky got me" was just going to make everything okay. Well...I finally had to give up when she said, "Bye Scarlett--errands to run and then I'll be back."
I heard her come home but the garage door didn't go up. I sat at the door and waited and waited--and guess what? She came up out of the basement and just walked right back out to her car and off she went again. Good God--WHAT NOW?
Poppy came home and went to the basement and out the sliding glass door and ran water into a big, blue thing till it was full. Hummmm...I'm just dyin to go out to see what THAT'S all about. I didn't get to find out then.
Oh, I hear the garage door goin up, up, up and in walks Mamaw. She looks tired...she is tired! Poppy hops up to help her get the 'whatever' she bought in the house. She got it all put away and just fell into her chair to rest a while.
Low-and-behold, then she got me hooked up with my leash and grabbed a big towel and tole me we was goin outside. Well, I needed to go out; don't ya know? Poppy came along behind with the camera--oh dear--another photo op? Down we went--out the big doors we went--and she tried to force me to go into that big blue thing with water in it...! I got my nails trimmed over that one.
She could see I was scared shitless....yes indeed. She picked me up and she stepped into the big blue thing. I was just hopin she didn't drop me. Then we got out and played with my new frisbie thingy (available at Walgreens) until again she picked me up and stepped into the big blue thing. This time, she put my back legs in--then my front legs--and asked me to SIT! Hey, it wasn't bad. Well we worked back and forth for about 20 minutes and I heard Mamaw say, "Okay Poppy--I think that's enough for today." THANK GOD! Back to the couch...I'm not complaining the next time s!he goes on errands cause maybe this was punishment--don't know.
This big blue thing doesn't taste very good...the water is WARM! (Yep, I had to see what THIS IS)My back legs are in--and Mamaw is "hangin on to me real tight
I like this best...THIS KISS; THIS KISS...
I was just happy when our dinner was over and we could all just RELAX
