Diversion

Hello, everyone!  It's me, Cammie.  The other day, Maggie and I went downstairs to help our mom in her Studio.  She was engaged in a very tedious, long, irritating process called "ripping out".  It seemed to involve removing 4 very lengthy borders from a quilt she is making.  Mags and I thought she needed a pleasant diversion!

We did our best to entertain her with a round of CROG (Crazed River Otter Games):

"BOOM!"
"BOOM!!!"

Does Maggie look more like she's playing Shark Attack there, or was it just my vantage point?

Mom seemed to enjoy watching us play and even put down her seam ripper (backwards sewing tool).  That's when I made my move.

"Break time, Mom?  I think you know what to do!"
"Wait ... let me get into position!"

She knew exactly what I needed - and I knew it would help her relax, too!

"Oh, yeah, Mom!  Right there!"
"Me next, OK?"
"My sweet, sweet girls!!!"

"This is so wonderful!  Just what I needed!"
"Don't forget about me!"
"Let me put down the iPhone, Mags ..."

Mom set down her phone and did double-duty.  It was so relaxing!  Before we knew it, Maggie and I were totally rejuvenated and ready for Round 2!

"A little more CROG action, Mags?"
"You're on!"
"And ... back to ripping ..."

Mom said we were the perfect diversion and had all of her borders taken off before she knew it!  What can we say?  We are Siberian Huskies and we are a Working Breed!

Cammie!
