Gracie’s Log
Days 5&6
I barely had time to sleep this weekend, let alone write about it. But now that my humans are back to school and work, I finally have a few minutes to myself (taking care of humans sure is hard work!)
I don’t know what got into my family but they spent more time in the backyard this weekend than they have in years! Dad and Andrew used loud tools and lots of wood to create some kind of weird barrier thing around the bottom of the deck.
And honestly, I don’t like it one bit!
I think they are making a kind of fence or something. But don’t they understand that is where I hide various treasures! And where some of the best digging is? Ugh. Right now it’s only half enclosed, but I have a very bad feeling about this….
Meanwhile mom and Ella spent a lot of time filling pots with fresh dirt and putting green plants in them. The dirt looked amazing! The perfect consistency for digging. I tried to help them, but they seemed uninterested in my digging skills and so I was left to run laps around the house, visit my friends through the fence in the back of the yard, and amuse myself with sticks.
Thankfully, I did get to go on a bunch of walks!
Mom got super upset yesterday about something….I’m not exactly sure what she was upset about. But I think it had something to do with her hair. She kept talking about her hair salon being closed and being scared she’s going to look like someone called Cruella de Vil soon and how if she can’t get her hair colored she’s gonna start scaring puppies??
I have no idea what she’s talking about. But I can’t imagine ever being scared of my mom.
But I don’t think she needs to worry, because if a hair salon is anything like the grooming salon, then my Dad is a pretty good groomer. He gives me great hair cuts! So mom shouldn’t worry! After all, Dad just got brand new clippers for me! And I’ll share with mom!
To help mom feel better, I laid in her lap for a long time yesterday. And it must have worked because after that she got up and cleaned her closet, made banana bread (yum!), and planted more plants on the deck!
I’m so glad I can make her feel better. Now if she would just give me some of that banana bread!
Be safe everyone! And let me know if you need to borrow my new clippers!
Always,
Gracie
(Now, I can finally take a nap!!!)
