Read all about my Barking Engagement

8:30 A.M. Arising, stretching and waking up the Little Lady who yells at me and tells me to go back to sleep 9:00 A.M. Arising again, this time pissed and not willing to hear any explanations about her being on a permanent vacation so she can sleep late 9:15 A.M. Guess who's finally up? First we have to go through the good morning routine, then the door is opened for me to go out and relieve myself, while hopefully breakfast is being prepared along with fresh water 9:20 A.M. How did breakfast go by that fast? Well I guess I'd better go back out again and see if I missed something since my last time out 9:30 A.M. Back inside and now it is time to roll around for awhile and give myself a superficial tongue bath 10:00 A.M. This looks like a good time to take a short nap considering I have been up for a couple of hours 11:00 A.M. Awake to the sound of the treadmill and remain absolutely still so that the Little Lady won't invite me to come on board 11:15 A.M. With her off that machine I can relax and roll over for her to rub my tummy and discuss the days plans with me, which depending upon the weather, may or may not include me 12:00 P.M. Announcement from Little Lady that it's time to get into my cage since she has errands to run. I hope there's something in that for me 3:00 P.M Hear key in the lock and know that I have to wake up from my wonderful uninterrupted nap since the Little Lady will think I'm sick. 3:10 P.M. Time to go out and do my business and start moving my old bones around. Now I think it is definitely time for a treat so I think I'll look cute 3:30 P.M. Not making much headway in the yummy department so I better resort to blue food ball for a snack 4:00 P.M. Dinner time, but not for me. I'm only allowed one meal a day to keep my figure sleek and my back strong. This does not stop me from trying to trip up the Little Lady in an attempt to get her to drop some food 5:00 P.M. Get major warning about barking and crying over my missed dinner. When will I learn that she doesn't impress easily?!? 6:00 P.M. Time to get ready for evening of television. She holds on the that remote for dear life in case I decide to grab it and turn on some quality programming 7:30 P.M. She's still at it so I start looking for things to get into. This is a very bad time of day for me since I am really bored what with knowing that the kitchen is closed and bedtime is not that far away 8:00 P.M. Little Lady gets down and plays with me since she can't stand to listen to my pitiful sobbing anymore. We roll around and she gets to act like a dog 8:30 P.M. Get lifted on to bed where we move onto a new activity being the computer. Here she will sit until at least 10:00 writing and playing computer games in which she curses like a sailor 10:15 P.M. Get roused out of deep sleep to adjourn to my basket for the night where I get covered with my blankie, have the thermostat adjusted to my comfort zone, all lights are shut out, and the burgler alarm is activated so I don't have to be bothered with watching out for intruders 10:20 P.M. Official night-night until tomorrow morning
