Yesterday My Margret took down the curtains from the windows in the landing to wash them.

The funniest thing happened last night. When we were ready to go to bed I happened to look and all of a sudden I saw a DOG out the window.

I barked and barked and barked to make sure it knew that this was our home.

I told my sisters to come with me to go out in our pup pen to let the dog know even more that this was our home. They went with me but looked at each other then at me then back at each other.

Do you know what? That dog was gone when we went outside. Guess I told her! Do you know what else? When we went back upstairs to bed I took a quick look…and there it was again! So I barked and barked and barked and barked some more.

My Margret started to laugh and call me sweet girl and said something about a reflection in the window. I don’t know what she was talking about but you’d better bet I’ll be looking tonight to see if that dog is back.

My Margret’s been cleaning out closets and I’ve been helping.

I’ve been on mouse patrol.

I’ve kept a very close eye on the sorting process to make sure nothing important gets thrown out.

I’ve shown her another way to look at things.

Most importantly I’ve cuddled with her so she has to stay put for a bit.

Wishing and hoping for just one more bite.

Wait! Did you drop one? Are you sure?

Could you maybe accidentally on purpose drop one pretty please?

YES!!!! She did!

My Margret says I have many faces. Um, I only have one face so I don’t know what she’s talking about.

She says I have a happy face.

A glamorous face.

A worried face.

a sleepy face.

And finally a just me face.

All within the space of a few minutes.

Who knew!

P.S.

A pup with a really long tail or is it? 😉

We LOVE popcorn, we also LOVE peanuts

My Margret makes us wait til the popcorn cools down before she gives us any. It sure takes a long time.

After she says all gone we give her “the look” in hopes of getting more

We also give her our best sad face

She’s pretty tough though so it hardly ever works.

That’s when we go see our My Greg. We know he’ll share peanuts with us

So tonight My Margret took my cone off! But then she cleaned out my ears. That made me mad so even though I’m 6 years old I channeled my inner naughty puppy and tore the cover off of a magazine. I guess that showed her!

P.S. It tasted good!

So My Margret noticed that if I moved just right I could still lick my paw. She told My Greg and he said ” Oh Boy!”

So this happened.

It even got the Linus seal of approval.

I left it on for over an hour before I ripped it off.

Next My Margret tried this

Except in a pretty blue.

Then this happened

It got the Bonnie seal of approval and that was good enough for me. I left it on all night and this morning until My Margret took it off. She and I have a deal. I’ll leave it on when I’m in the house including overnight and I get to have it off when I’m out in our pup pen.

We’re both happy AND my hot spot is getting better!

P.S Big thank you to Xena, Angel Lexi and their Mom from Lexi The Schnauzer & Friends for the encouragement to try socks again. It takes a village!

My Greg took me to the vet today. He helped me be brave when they took a scrape of my hotspot. I came home with antibiotics and Prednisone so I get to have a lot of cheese/cream cheese for the next 10 days. Oh and My Greg put the cone back on because I won’t leave socks (or wraps) on my foot. I mean come on white athletic socks? Maybe if they tried something pretty …hmm probably not.
