The sky has been overcast here in Spokane ever since I got home from my tour on the 8th. This morning, the good ole sun is out full force and all I’ve got to say about that is: YEEHAW!!
Sadie has her swimming lesson today–being all beagle, she has a short coat, so I bought her a brown sweater with pink trim to wear to and from. She looks downright fashionable and doesn’t seem to mind dressing up. Bernice, on the other hand, hates any kind of costume and would not take kindly to a sweater. Trouble is, she looks so darned cute in an outfit–but she just hunkers down and projects abject misery until someone takes it off for her. Once, at Halloween, I dressed her as an angel. Talk about miscasting.
She sat down, all four fluffy feet splayed, embarrassed but determined to endure. I snapped her picture and took off the angel costume. Like I said, it was inappropriate anyway. If I just could have found little horns and a pitchfork… or, better yet, a clipboard and rhinestone trimmed glasses that hang around a beaded chain. Bernice’s true calling is Bossy Cruise Director.
I’ll be spending Valentine’s Day with my mom. I haven’t seen her in months, and I’m looking forward to catching up.
Have a good weekend. You’re all my Valentines.
