3rd day of rain and outside ugliness

Mom is upto something and I have to wonder what.  Not only has she been moving stuff around, she's also been cleaning house with the radio blasting.  She baked two apple pies last week.  Maybe it's the weather....but that is the opposite of sensible, since all this weather is good for is sleep, nap, sleep.  Why does she have all this energy?

I heard her say to dad, on the phone, that Emma's mom might stop by "any minute" and she wanted the shock to be gradual...whatever.  Silly humans.  It's obvious that three rowdy dogs live here.  Nothing is going to change that!  She even tried to get the dog hair off the velvet love-seat, my favorite spot!  What a joke!  Tape does not fix dog hair on velvet.  Finally, she gave up and just threw a new sheet over it.  When she was tucking the big soft blankie on the main couch, she also pulled the rug out from under...well, when we get to rough housin scatter rugs scatter.  What can I say, the slide is a hoot, and who minds a little body slam into the couch?  It's a soft landing.  Anyhoo, she yanked the scatter rug out from under the couch as she was tucking the newly washed blankie under and out popped a pair of dad's clean underpants that had been tangled in the blankie.

At first, mom was baffled.  Where did these underwear come from?  Then she shook her head and mumbled something about it happening in front of company,...oh, that she was glad it DIDN'T happen in front of company.  I don't get why that would be a big deal.  It's not like they were smelling good or anything.  They were still warm from the dryer.

Oh yeah, I remember why Miss Sandy, Emma's mom, is coming over.  It's to drop off some neck scarves for mom to decorate.  The Adopt-A-Bulls at Saturdays Parade are going to wear them.  She did two red ones with glued on ribbon that say "Adopt" and "Pick Me" so far.

  2. Dear kim,

    Look what I dug up here. Don't you like those amusing doodles in the margins of medieval manuscripts? What do you think is going on in this picture.
    And anyway, what do you hear that dog saying about what's up?

  3. I think maybe he has just took the ring off the leg of his falcon and is now passing it on to the nice lady so she can put it on the leg of her pet squirrel. That makes a lot of sense.
