Tomorrow is the day. The day I meet my new companions. Sheep.
I’m not even sure what sheep are.
As long as they don’t have quills like porcupines, I think I’ll be fine. I'm so excited. I may not be able to sleep tonight. I may have to count sheep. Pun intended.
And so far, the weather forecast is
typical. Sunny with cloudy periods. And a chance of showers. If the fog doesn’t obliterate our view. Calm winds with gusts to hurricane
levels. Chance of flurries. Or major squalls. OK. I made some of that up. But that’s what the weather people do! They
like to cover all possible bases.
Lately Frodo and I have been making
ourselves QUITE comfortable in the DFZ, when our human is not watching. Frodo moves the obviously non-obstructive
gate – and I rush to follow him in. I
even hide behind a chair if I know my human is going out somewhere, on the off
chance that she might not realize I’m in the forbidden territory. She always
finds me though, and banishes the two of us from the DFZ before she
leaves. She puts double bungee cords on the
gate and even doubles up the gate. She
thinks it keeps us out while she is gone….
And speaking of forbidden – Paxton is up to
his old tricks too. He has lately become
QUITE comfy ON THE HUMAN bed if he is not being watched. But that’s not the worst part. Paxton LOVES to chew the corners off pillows. My human just put some decorative pillows on
the bed the other day – only to come in the room and find the corner on one
pillow was all soggy and matted.
Paxtons’ handiwork. Now he is
being banished from the bed. Or so our
human thinks…. I must confess, I do like the taste of pillow corners as well.
Other than that, not much new here. We are adjusting to our human’s return to
work, and we take turns with daily guard duty.
We have managed to bark at two rabbits, six birds and one leaf so far
this week.
I must rest up today to get ready for the
big event tomorrow. Stay tuned!
