Beyond my control....

...with an afternoon delivery from the state park warehouse today..
I decided to change my work schedule for today - 10am-2pm...
ahhhhhh...
I could sleep late...at least that's was my thought when i went to bed last night.
NOT..!
 
At 4:30am CityBoy was up and trying to get the dogs out of a nice warm bed into the cold dark outside...
At 5:00am the smoke alarm started chirping...turn out to be his new phone...
however...
at 5:05am CityBoy was moving a ladder around and looking for a 9V battery...
also, at 5:05am i had two cold dogs quivering in the bed, under the covers, next to me ... 'cause they are afraid of the chirping sound...
Then all was quite until 6:30am when CityBoy left for the Wellness Center...up went the electric garage door....down when the garage door...
At 6:35am Misskitty is screaming on the front porch...CityBoy left her out, it was cold out there and there was a stray cat invading her territory..
Up...outta bed to let her in and of course the dogs ran out into the cold...
I gave them 5 minutes to chase the boggy cat away and then back to bed with cold dogs...
Then i remembered that i was suppose to take Max and Misskitty to the vet this past Tuesday...where has the brain been lately...it seems to be in another zone...
maybe i need more sleep...

I did manage to sleep until 8:00am after that..
but...
woke to Lula Belle staring in the window and howling for breakfast....
Now...
the inside dogs, outside dog and cat are all taking naps and i'm headed for work....

Everyday is a Gift

  3. So much for sleeping in. Sure hope you get to bed early tonight. They were just talking on the news how we should all prepare for the time change coming November 3rd. I hate to think what it might do for you. Nice all the critters get to take a nap.

  4. Poor Boomer! I feel for you. My husband and I have been taking turns with our new puppy. She has been needing to go out at O'dark thirty. However, I am going to have to explain the concept of taking turns to take her out does not mean that he waits until I wake up to wake him up so he will go take her out. Defeats the purpose of allowing me to rest...lol. Hang in there, the weekend is coming!
