Finally Friday!

I don't know why I get so excited about Fridays. Mama and Daddy usually leave us at home alone for a while on weekends. I know they are going out to breakfast with Grandma and Grandpa tomorrow. I wish we could go.

Mama made a fire this morning and I've been keeping one eye on it. It's hard though because I'm lounging in the sun again today. I hope I don't mess up again today.

Happy weekend everyone!

No Work Today

Thanks for making me feel better about my embarrassing moment. I do not have to watch the fire today because it's going to be in the 50's and maybe even the 60's, so we will not build a fire today. Mama says we will take a nice long walk later.

Do you ever watch Mythbusters? Mama was searching blogs this morning and found this one Christy's Coffee Break. It has a cool link to a segment from Mythbusters. It drew my interest. I stared at the computer screen when Mama played it.

I'm off to take a nap now. Talk to you later.

I'm not fired!

Mama said that I am not fired. She said she understands how hard it is to stay awake when the room is nice and warm and Mr. Sunbeam is shining down on me. I was really worried because I couldn't imagine what other job she might find for me. We all need to contribute to the household chores here.

I was fired from my previous job. Scout has that job now. Scout is in charge of helping Mama bring firewood in from the screened porch. You want to know why I got fired? You are not going to laugh are you? It's kind of embarrassing. Okay, here it is. I peed on the wood. Nature called and I was outside on the screened porch, well, it seems like the outside and anyway, I saw the wood and figured it was okay. It wasn't. Mama says wet wood doesn't burn well and she really didn't want to burn pee soaked wood, so I was fired right there and then. I TOLD YOU IT WAS EMBARRASSING!

I'm hiding my head in shame now.

The not so greyt hound,

Jack Fell Asleep on The Job



I was bad today. I fell asleep on the job. I was supposed to be watching the fire and letting Mama know when it needed more wood. My bed was in the sunshine and I fell asleep. She came in the living room and said "JACK, THE FIRE IS ALMOST OUT".
I hope I don't loose my job over this. Mama says jobs are hard to come by these days.
