Today is the last day of “freedom” for me from my school building. Instead of going in, like I did on Monday, to start getting my room reorganized, I put myself and Gerry first. It’s OUR last day of summer vacation. Even though it started out with him not wanting to take his pills, OR eat any of his chicken breakfast, Mommy will figure something out. Here is one of the things that makes her happy!
Yes indeedy, xongrats on putting Gerry and Mom first!!! Gerry, sounds like you are making sure you’re getting maximum atte tion on this “vacation day” by not eating breakfast! You’re gonna get so many extra treats and goodies by boycotting your chicken……..just wait and see! 🙂
LOOOOVE that sweet, sweet picture. Whole lotta’ love….whole lotta’ love 🙂
AND YAAAAAAAAAY FOR DOG SMELL!!!! Best fragrance in the world! 🙂
Love and hugs
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!
Oh starting back after summer was so hard for me and Bosco. I have been working for the last month and it’s hard to get him to eat and pee before work! And meds are a pain some days too…I miss the easy mornings where I could let him sleep as late as he needed and eat when he wants to. I really miss that time but I do shamelessly hit the snooze 2 times each morning and make sure we get a little puppy cuddle time in. And your right, that smell is the best!
Gerry seems to have forgotten that he and I were “up” at 5 am for the past 6 years, and outside in the moonlight by 5:20, after some preliminary “snug time”.
This summer I learned that more sleep was better, for him. He used to be ALWAYS the first one up to let us know he had to go outside, and now he could care less. This Friday I felt like a Blue Meanie “telling” him to “let’s go” and do some “good boys” to get him out to pee before I had to go to work. Never mind his pills, or disinterest in eating….one day at a time.
Blue Meanie? You? Hah, never! Sleep is medicinal. I think it just takes us all a while to realize that. Gerry’s catching on I think.
What a sweet photo! I know it will be hard to get back to that school year routine after being together all summer. What a time you went through! You can do it though! And hey what if you could get Gerry into your classroom as the student therapy dog? Now that would be really cool!
Good luck with the school year. You sound like a great teacher.
Oh I agree; sleep is medicinal, if I could JUST get my district to take my suggestion to start school later in the day. Gerry and I will figure something out I’m sure. This 3 day weekend is probably going to confuse him though. Again, we’ll figure it out. I’ve been on the computer most of the day, typing class lists, (now that I have them), printing and laminating, and making name tags and AGGGHHHHHH! Thankfully Gery grounds me, by lying right next to me with his chin on my foot. I’ll try to get a picture!
