Long Lonely Day

That vacation thing was great, I got into a nice routine. I would get let out of my sleeping house by Daddy, get breakfast, go outside, and then go back to sleep with Mommy for a few more hours. Then when Mommy got up I would get up with her and follow her all around the house. Don't get me wrong, I love Daddy, he's my Alpha in the house. But let's face it, I am more likely to get treats and other good stuff from Mommy, she is much more into the sharing thing than Daddy is, I think it is the kindergarten teacher in her.

Then today it all changed. Mommy let me out of my sleeping house, fed me breakfast, and let me outside before she went and got into the shower. No sleeping in! That should have been my first warning sign. After the shower Mommy was putting clothes on, drying her hair, and doing her other morning things. She didn't go out and have breakfast, play on the computer, or sit down in front of the TV. Then she gave me loves and said goodbye! She was gone all day! That's when it hit me that her vacation must be over. I moped, that's what Daddy calls it, around the house for most of the day, laying in front of the door so that I would be able to hear her when she came in. When I finally gave up and was in the office with Daddy for a while I heard her come home! I was so excited.

On to a few other things. I had been waiting for Mommy to download the camera to post some pictures, and she finally got around to it. I've been wanting to post some pictures, because someone once said that it makes the blog more interesting and makes people want to read it.

This first picture is of my playing with my green golf ball. I love this ball! As I chase it around it drops pieces of food out of it. How much better than that can you get. It's a great distraction for me when Mommy and Daddy have to leave.

My next pictures are of me at the last Beagle Meet up that we went to. The first picture shows what I love to do at the dog park, SMELL THINGS! Were you expecting something different? I know that some dogs go there to play, and I have on rare occasion been known to do a little bit of that, but I would just rather walk around and just follow my nose. The second picture here is of me telling Mommy and Daddy that I am ready to go.

Oh, Mommy and I are all caught up on our guilty pleasure of reading Fred and Hank Mark America (I have a link to it on the side here). Daddy just shakes his head when he sees it on the screen. Mommy has read him parts of it and he either has a good laugh, or just shakes his head and says "That's bad, that is just bad." I LOVE all of the pictures of Fred and Hank that the people put on the blog.

Well it is almost time for bed. I better sign off so that I can go and check the kitchen for crumbs.
