Praying Dog... 07/29/2010
I continue to observe this interesting ritual behavior from Bear when he eats ... and I think he's praying before he digs in. Hear me out on this one {before you imagine me in a straight jacket, K?} He starts out by sitting in front of his full food bowl {no eye contact is made} Then he lays down in front of the bowl, front paws stretched out toward bowl {head between legs on ground, staring intensely at the bowl} Next, he sits back up {continuing to stare at the bowl} Finally, he sniffs the contents of the bowl {nudging the food with the tip of his nose} As long as no one has entered his space, eating now begins. If one of the kiddos {or I} breeze past him, he has to start all over again. My Theory? When he was a pup he used to eat his food so fast he would puke it all back up within minutes. Now he’s 3 y/o & I think he’s begging praying to the gourmet food Gods to allow it to stay down each time. Or maybe he’s just OCD?? Great the cat needs prozac & the dog has ritual eating disorder ... I’m seeing a pattern here. Laundry & Money ... 07/28/2010
There really is nothing I love more than all the machines in my house going at once washer ... dryer ... dishwasher ... a/c I appreciate living in modern times. However, one of my biggest pet peeves ~ is when FireDude or the children don't check their pockets before a load goes in {{aaaarrrrgggghhhhhhhhhh}} Yeah, I know, I could "re-check" them. Honestly, have you ever WANTED to stick your hands in the pockets of {adventurous} boys clothing? Me neither. In any case, I got paid for laundry today FireDude {formerly known as DH} left the mother load behind in his pockets!! $11 ... woot-woot!! Now that's what I call "laundered money" {heehee} Till next time, TOAM One of my all time Fave vids... 07/27/2010
