Ninja Pug does laundry and has a green paw

Yesterday I slept toooooo much.

Boy human worked from home and has this uncanny knack for ignoring all that goes on around him. He calls it “FOCUS” – girl human says he just doesn’t pay attention. That being said, I didn’t have nearly enough of my energy used so I was up today at 1am, 2:30am, 3:50am… well you get the picture.
When we all got up this morning I was told that today we were going to PLAY. I thought that meant right away and wherever and with whatever I wanted.
So I traveled into the living room- the room with the REALLY COMFY WHITE sofas. They make a good launching point to the antique marble top table that holds the antique Pug statues and bronze elk that I so carefully tip-toed around to go see the old grandfather clock in the corner of the room like any good curious Ninja Pug would do. Today’s first lesson: don’t let your humans think they have good furniture for guests - they will only make you stay off it.
Being the good pug I am, I thought it would be nice to help do chores today- so I helped with laundry. To ensure the machines did their respective jobs, I rolled in the sheets for one last good scent deposit. I like helping with the laundry.
Next we decided that my “Finnegan cookies” were a bit too puffy in the middle, so we re-baked them to make them crunchy through and through. I think the recipe is now to bake at 325°F for 45-55 minutes total. We’ll see how the next batch goes. Lesson two: insist on constant taste-testing to ensure daily yumminess of treats- you can never be too lax about this.
Time for a play break - outside we went but it was far too distracting with the birds and frogs and smells and the little human giggles and squawks in the air.

11:30-I think the fresh air made me sleepy so I took a nap – 11:36 nap over.
Let’s try inside play. This something I really enjoy. I might even consider submitting this as a new Olympic sport. It combines speed agility and stealthy artistic grace. You might say it combines the skill of a CD player QA tester/wild Savannah big cat impersonator. Let me explain. Human sits on floor, Human holds one of my toys out. Human passes toys from arm to arm circling their body while I chase it. Eventually the toy gets exhausted and stops. That’s when I crouch, lean, point; extend in slooooow motion, and just like a wild cat- I strike. Of course most of the time I miss and the chase goes on, but boy we have tons of fun! Lesson three: Make sure that you spend equal time in the reverse direction or your eyes will look funny bouncing back and forth in your head from all the spinning.
12:25 time for another nap.12:31 you know…nap over.
So the rest of the day went on like this…Play, nap, play, nap, inside, outside, sniff, sniff get into something new.
Time for more chores…. tend to the garden.

I am very proud of these - we planted these seeds last week and just look at how fast they are growing! It must be my green paws.
The tomatoes already have fruits on them and they are just my size. Too bad they are up out of my reach. Hmmm… thought to self; “how can I get those white sofas outside so I can reach the tomatoes?”
Happy gardening everyone!
