And Now: A Brief Message From The Lab


Pssst, listen to me now, I don't have long. Don't pay any attention to Jane's complaints about living in squalor ( she's so OCD). The house has never looked better. The bed is now on the floor, no jumping necessary and it's easy to get off ASAP when someone comes knocking at the door ( I'm the greeter). There are boxes full of treasures stacked everywhere and if I just keep sniffing I might find a hidden treat.

The shades and curtains are gone from the windows and have been replaced with batik sarongs. These are darker and allow us all to sleep later. Though the humans don't seem as happy about this as I am. Jane keeps saying that all we need to do now is start burning incense.


I must be quick here, I'm a very slow typist, another 10 minutes of granola baking and we're off for a walk!!!!!! And then it's time for breakfast!!!!

The best news of all is the clothes washer repairman is coming this morning, sometime between 8:00 and 12:00, so not only will I have a new man to bark at, Jane can't go running off with her fiends, I mean friends and leave me all alone. (though I do have my favorite toy Asterix to keep me company)

Oh happy squalor, oh lovely disarray!

And I'm also amazed that a walk got 6 exclamation marks, but breakfast only got 4. Obviously your breakfast isn't that exciting. Mine gets !!!!!!!!!!!! Have a word with the humans.

  9. Nika says:Madelief, I am, I'm totally spoiled. But don't tell them i said so!

    Janet, if you think of any, she would love to hear them, food dog, is popular, so is what a sweet dog, but the best words are dinner and treat!

    Denise, Yes it is. It's also good when another blogger makes you laugh:)

  11. Souki said to tell you that with the bed on the floor it is also easy to just slide on in under the sheets......ooooooh!
    She also said a few doggy footprints on said sheets don't go astray, make it feel quite homely, but only after they feed you!!!!
    love Maggie xx

    :-{

  16. Julienne, Don't you and Souki be giving her any more ideas!

    Hound, Will I have time for my own blog what with greeting and eating and walking and sleeping? Jane seems to spend a lot of time at the computer....

    Nika says: Dear Semi Expat, what does your name mean? It's easier to respond to calls such as dinner and walk if you only have one name. i'll call you semi. x

    Sara Louise, Ok, but they better not get to planning and plotting together...could be BIG trouble.

    Sinead, ain't that the truth!

    Nika says, Hey Teddy, welcome to my hood. That's some big puppy love out your way.
    Do you have a costume?
