Stepping out the door today, The dog thought he could have his way, I had his collar in my hand, But soon I found I could not stand. The deck was covered with fresh snow, But this big dog, he had to go, So off he ran and down I went, Landing on that hard cement. Bathrobe up around my ears, My eyes were filling up with tears, And just as I got to my feet, A cat came by for Bo to meet. He took off running once again, And back I'm down where I had been, Sliding in the slushy snow, In my jammies don't ya know. Down the driveway to the street, When the neighbor man I meet, Who wondered if my mind was right, For big ol' Bo was outta sight. And I was sitting in the snow, Blushing with a bright red glow, Robe and jammies wet and torn, Revenge is mine tomorrow morn. |

Been there, done that, and if you're going to be a dog owner...or owned by a dog...you're going to do it again! Great LOL...thanks! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Read this earlier, but got to laughing then choking on my coffee, before I could comment my computer said enough and disconnected. Thanks for the image, it got the blood flowing to the brain. (I hope) |
