About daylight the dog still had not aroused from her cave (she sleeps in a heavily blanketed wolf's cage, most nights), so I awakened her and opened the doors to head topward the back dog for her to do her morning business. Whe I opended the door, instead of stretching and walking out as usual, she ran to her hiding spot -- she thinks she can't be seen-- did her am tinkle, and ran and jumped up on the sofa and buried herself under pillows. So, to teach her never to do that again -- this was the first time in 4 years-- I picked her up and put her out back for 20 minutes, anyway. When I finally let her in she looked at me like I was St. georges Dragon, and she was among the persecuted.
Skip to a few minutes ago, a little after noon. She is playing outside while my wife and I are reading inside; suddenly I noticed it was raining -- and at a pretty good clip. So I march to the back door and she is standing there , once again, among the persecuted. She is now buried beneath the sofa cushions once again, and as soon as it quits raining -- it has already slowed down-- I'm going to pick a few tomatoes from my garden to go with our lunch.
I hope everyone is having a pleasnt day..................
