Apparently the water in his bowl wasn’t enough that he felt he had to come get a drink while I was doing the dishes since the water was running.

Sorry I’ve been gone a few days. We’ve been busy getting the house ready for the holidays. Let the yelling at the cat and dog begin!! For two or three days I’ve been yelling at Romeo (our Boxer) to stay away from the tree and leave the ornaments alone. He waits until I walk away long enough to go right back to knocking something else down for him to bat around with his paw. For those that are not familiar with the Boxer breed of dogs…they use their paws a lot.

Anyway, today when I was cooking I had my back to the tree and I heard the same noise of Christmas balls jingling that I’ve been hearing for days right before I lay into the dog. I slammed my spoon down and turned around already starting to say Romeo, but it went more like “RO-MEE-O OH!”. Then it went to “Oh…my…God! Patrick!! Grab the camera!! Quick! Hurry up! But don’t run! But hurry up! Come on, quick!!!”. You know how us wives are, always pushing and pulling. So this is what I saw when I turned around.

It was Garfield (no I didn’t name him) climbing around the tree.  He’s my other naughty animal. However, this gave way for the best Christmas picture ever below.

Apparently he got so worn out from all the climbing he had to nap on the counter, above the dishwasher that just ran a heat cycle so the counter was nice and warm for him. 

If only life were that simple.
