| Me and Cam |
Some of you have wondered why we're doing so much walking lately; others have asked if I have an "off switch". Hmm. Not sure what that second question means ... but anyway, I thought I'd take Photo Finish Friday to show you why we do all the walking -- you know, other than the fact that we ALL love it and it's good for our health and stuff! Mom's goal appears to be this:
Two tired, perfectly behaved Siberians. Oh. You think my ears are perked up a bit there?
 |
| "I wasn't going to start anything!" |
 |
| "YES, reallllly, Mom!" |
I love my mom to pieces, but sometimes it's like she thinks I'm always about to start something! Can you believe that? Let's take our party inside.
Sometimes, after a walk, instead of us all going out on the deck, I like to do this:
The tiles are nice and cool! If I want a little cushioning, I can always go into the living room and use one of our beds.
 |
| "Ooooh, yes. Nice and soft." |
Sometimes, I play Fetch for a while after our walks, then I take a break.
 |
| "Zzz..." |
The tiles by the front door are nice and cool, too.
Usually, Cam and I do a few round of zoomies together (apparently not one of Mom's goals...) then hang out together in the breakfast room.
 |
| Cooling down after a walk and zoomies |
Cam likes the quilt and mat by the windows; I like to be more in the center of things.
After a cool down and a nice drink, this is how and where you can find us:
 |
| "Hey, Aunt Cammie. I'm right here if you want to play." "Let's take a nap for a bit, little one." "OK... but I'm right here if you change your mind." |
I don't quite get it, but somehow, all that laying around seems to be one of Mom's major goals with all the walking. Can you figure that out? Me neither!
Have a great weekend, everyone!
Yours sincerely,
Margaret Thatcher
Mags you gotta humor the mom's. That way you get more walk, crazy otter time, fetch and TREATS. I mean really if they wanted something to just lay around all day they would have gotten a sloth. Am I right. Of course I am.

Wow, Maggie, I am curious too. It seems to me that walking and exercising is the antithesis of relaxing and being quiet. Maybe I am missing something.
ReplyDeleteI will say, though, that on days that I can extra walkies that I often find it difficult to enjoy tennis ball fun times due to feeling a bit sleepy.
Kisses,
Dexter
We go walking every day too....mom says it is a good way to tire us out and tire herself out too and we love out cool tiles too
ReplyDeleteSometimes I'd be out for hours and hours chasing around like a mad thing. Now it is 2 hours but sometimes I come home and play ankle bitey till I settle down for naps. We pups need to stay fit and lovely to see your mum helps you with that MT & Camm. Have a fabulous fit Friday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly

ReplyDeleteLily and Edward
Ahh..we got it now. That is the same reason Tempest goes to daycare once a week, BOL.
ReplyDeleteM.T. you have hit upon the $87,000.00 Question here... We wonder why our mom seems to be so Happy when we are outside doing our Yard Works. Peeps are a MYSTERY.
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's day to your mom.
what is it with our folks and this "behaved" business anyways?!? Maggie, that look you are giving your mom made us mol! Have a fun weekend!
ReplyDeletePip, Smidgen, Minnie, Hollie
It appears that your mom's plan is working. You both look well rested and well behaved!
