Today’s gonna be a good day. I got to sleep in til 6:30 (instead of 5:00). Now let me explain. I have 2 dogs. And those of you with those evil creatures know that they are nature’s little alarm clocks. Mornings are usually the alarm at 5, feed them and me, let them out and back in, and leave for work by 6. Of course usually by 4 they are licking , scratching and making other disgusting noises so I am ready for the radio to turn, which is the official alarm clock.
However today I was having some really strange dreams which is my brain’s way of saying that I’ve been in bed too long. And so I grudgingly crawled out of the warm bed to attend to their needs. Such is life. They are really sweethearts otherwise. That’s unless they’re digging in the yard for who knows what.
Fall has finally fallen. We’ve had rain (lots of rain), cool days, now we have cold mornings (40F this morning). The grass seed hubby put down last week is finally sprouting. The furnace still works.
Things really could be much worse.

Hi JC, I'm just over from PhilipH's Chronicles of a Croydon Boy blog and he says you're relatively new in BlogTown. Welcome! I have 2 cats and they serve pretty much the same function as your dogs do as furry alarm clocks.
ReplyDeleteSeems as though all is going nicely for you!
ReplyDeleteGreen shoots popping up and the furnace works OK.
May you have a good week.
Isn't it the truth? On the very rare occasions the furry beings let you sleep in, the mind roams in odd areas.
ReplyDeleteOur dog has been gone for nearly a year, and the only nice thing about that, truly the only positive? Sleeping in :-) Admittedly, we have a positively deranged cat more than willing to fulfill the role of "He who wakes sleeping bipeds." but thankfully, we simply lock him out of the room, so he is thwarted!
Again, welcome to blogging!
Hello JC. I have 2 adult dogs aged 6 and 2 and a puppy aged 4 months. All of them sleep until around 5am then want out for a pee. The funny thing is, once they've done that they all want to go back to bed again! Sweet deal for me... means I can get another 2 hours sleep.
