I had to house/dog sit for a couple yesterday and last night. Three little dogs attacked me as I walked in the house and their incessant barking was enough to drive me crazy but they eventually calmed down and allowed me to take a nap on the couch for about an hour. Of course they slept right beside me.
Around 10:30-ish...actually I have no idea when it was, but that's what I'm going to say...the power went out. Ahh, strange dark house, no flash ights, don't know where the matches are, and the dogs have begun to bark again. After making some phone calls from the cell phone, I found a flashlight, and a friend a few miles away brought over some candles and matches. We played three hands of gin before the lights came back on and the dogs stopped barking.
At 12:00 I tried to go to bed. The dogs wouldn't pee outside, of course. They like to sleep with their owners, so I crawled into bed with three dogs...no, two...one wouldn't get on the bed with me on it...until 1:00!!! Ahhh, I just wanted to get some rest! At 6:00 this morning, one of the dogs woke me up to let me know it had just peed in the bed, right nest to my face...as if I wouldn't feel/ smell it, right? So at 6:00 I am up and the sheets are off the bed and in the washing machine.
It's been a long morning already. Tonight I will go to sleep early...with just one dog in the bed who never pees in it...my Randy!
