Buddy Fell Asleep Reading (photo)

Buddy with her, er, my, Kindle, Summer 2012

I did not stage this photo! 

This is the scene I found when I got back from the bathroom one night this summer. 

You know you spend too much time with canine companions,

rather than human companions, when you realize that you've found the perfect ringtone...For your dog.

Like she might try to call you.

Or something.

It's you Mommy, it's you!

I smelled something. Something that smelled bad, and I said so.

But, I couldn't figure out what it was, and I said so.

So, Buddy, ever helpful, ran up to me and poked her nose against my backside,
as if to say, "it's you mommy, it's you."

It's you that smells bad.

Gee, thanks Bud.

Deja Poo

That's when I'm cleaning up poo from the backyard, and I could swear that I'd already picked up that pile of poo. 

But, there it is, ready & waiting to be picked up. 

Again.

Week of August 25, 2012

Picture this (which is another way of saying, "sorry, didn't take a photo").

Bud & The Kitty Cat lying on the bed. Bud in the house, for the night.

Bud looks at me as if to say, "I want to go out."

The Cat looks at me as if to say, "I want the dog to go out."

_

We won't even mention the morning earlier in the month, when I opened my
eyes just in time to see the cat extending a paw to smack the sleeping dog.

_

Picture this, Buddy telling me to turn off the bedroom light for the night (she did it by barking her high pitched bark, and tossing her head).

_

In the middle of the night (OK, I was awake reading), Buddy "told" me she wanted a doggie treat.

Of course, she got one.

I love that she communicates with me, and it was amusing, and just. So. Cute!

The first time.

The second time she tried to get me out of bed to get her a treat, it was less amusing.

The third time, it wasn't cute.

By the next night, it had lost its charm.
