Lighter Note


My dog keeps me endlessly entertained. He always looks at me with happiness and I can go in the house when I'm through playing with him. There rest of the family thinks that he is a pain in the booty. He jumps on them, licks them and follows them around. The only person he stays away from is Jon. I think he can tell he is not wanted. When Jon walks outside he slinks away. I take him for walks in the morning and in the evening when Nana Cathy walks by on her walk he goes with her. When they get back to her house he has a drink, chases a cat and then comes home. I get the biggest kick out of him looking for me at Nana's when he can't find me. He used to do it every time I left the house and drove in the direction of her house, for those of you who don't know she lives half a mile away, all he has to do is run through the cotton field. She could tell every time I left the house and drove that way because she'd turn around and his nose would be stuck to her kitchen window. Jon has finally broken him of that habit but now when I go for a walk if I stop at her house he runs around outside until he's bored, then he comes and looks at me through her kitchen window. We take that to mean he's had his drink, peed on his territory (because apparantly her house is his territory too), chased all of the cats into trees and he's ready to go home.
