Heidi on her walk this morning.Last night,three different times she was sleeping,she really snored up a storm beside me twice and in between the couch and Mom's chair.I turn the computer off,she gets up and goes to mom,she knows it is bedtime and I take her to bed.This morning after breakfast, up in the chair looking out then down and looks at me,pawing at me so off we went.We saw a Sealyham Terrier going into the Catholic church parking lot,too far away to go and see them,they went inside the church.After coming back,she flops in front of Mom on the carpet,I go and get washed.After I come down here,she is up at the top of the stairs wanting out so out she went.I heard her barking, and went out to get her,it was a Bichon Frise being walked by,not Gracie but another one from around the crescent,this has happened the the last three days.Right now,she is her with me down here having a snooze,going in about 45 minutes to the groomers so she will be looking pretty.

Awww, Heidi! You took a look outside and let Barry know it was time to walk! What a smart girl! Happy Friday! I'm glad you got outside before the weather changed. We had a rainy night from about 5 yesterday afternoon, and it was still raining when I went to bed after the 10 o'clock news. Today is sunny and a little windy so I hope the storm moves through quickly for you.
