Peel me a grape

After a long hot day wearing a wet towel, snoozing and supervising Mum while she worked in the garden, there is nothing nicer than a rest on the couch with the evening sun on my head and the shade on my back.

Shady lady

I am really the smartest girl in this house.  Average temperature today is given at 76 degrees Fahrenheit and I am the only dog who has had the sense to get in the shade.

Yours Truly Confused has kindly wet all the towels with cold water and let us wear them round the garden, I think I look rather fetching.

Detente #1

The Big Guy and I like to argue a lot, and when we do, it is guaranteed to send Yours Truly Confused up the walls.  She hates it when we grumble at each other.

It’s great fun winding her up – we get alternative scolding and bribes, mostly bribes, so we do tend to lay it on a bit thick from time to time, and we never let on to YTC that we are actually the best of friends

But it’s cold out tonight and all warm and cosy in our bedroom, so all is peace and harmony and we can’t hide it.  I think she is on to us.

My couch

Black cover on the couch.

Black and white throw on the couch.

Black and white dog on the couch.

Clearly the couch is mine.

Christmas cheer…

Yours Truly Confused insists every year that we all get dressed up for our Christmas photos.

It used to be a tinsel collar, or a nice bow, but this year she has found these antler things that jingle (aargh).

Thank the Lord she couldn’t find Santa outfits in our sizes.

Mine all mine

To encourage me and The Big Guy to get more exercise, and to keep us entertained enough that we won’t argue about food, Yours Truly Confused has invested in a range of Kong toys that can be stuffed with lo-fat snacks.

The idea is that we spend time rooting out the snacks from inside the toys, using up energy and stimulating our little grey cells. Hah!

 

YTC is a bit miffed because, as far as I am concerned, if there is a snack in it, I own it, and nobody else is having it. So I have collected as many as I can and here I am guarding my loot.  No exercise involved, just a lot of sitting down and eyeing The Diva and The Big Guy suspiciously as they walk past.

Any “Likes” for me today?

I do like to keep up with my Facebook friends.

Here I am checking the new profile set up I had Yours Truly Confused put together for me.

I think I’m looking pretty good there…
