Happy Labor Day

Happy Labor Day!  I saw a meme that has a dog saying "I thought it was Happy Labrador Day!"  In our house it is Happy Dog day.  Did I tell you Boy took off to college but also adopted a dog?  Funny thing, dogs are not allowed in the dorms.  Who knew?  So Big Puppy is living with us and Garbage Gut, and Oliver, and Calvin, and Baby Kitty (also belonging to Boy!).

My Mom is laughing.  As a child, I wanted to "adopt" every orphaned animal that passed by our place.  Her catch phrase was "when you have a house of your own, you can have as many animals as you want."  I blame this savior syndrome on her (oh yes, I do!!!).  

who's a happy puppy????

My Labor Day started at 4:30 a.m. (thank you, Big Puppy, for the wake-up call, but we did NOT set alarms this morning!).  No one wakes up at 4:30 a.m. so BP should not even have that time on his radar and Lord knows Boy NEVER EVER woke up at 4:30 a.m.  Of course he might have still been awake at that time, but never just waking up then.  We have no idea why he wakes....but we take him out for a potty break....just in case.

My dessert date fizzled out today so I'm dressed for cleaning.  I vacuumed the hallway and BP peed because he obviously does not like that sound.  Yes, I know it is a foreign sound to him.  I wonder if I do it more, he will get used to it?  naaahhhh....it's not April Fool's Day!!!!

I think I'm nearing the "wake up at 4 a.m. and take a nap at 11:30 a.m." phase of my life. Yes, I'm gonna be one of those people (which, when you think about it, isn't such a bad thing; especially now.....considering!).

Yeah, I woke up the family at 4 a.m.  My work here is done!
