Tell-All Tuesday!

Hi, everybody, it's me, Tucker!  And boy, am I sleepy today!  Up late last night (waiting for Mom & Aunt K. to get back from the ER), up early this morning (to take Aunt K. to get an MRI, which couldn't happen because the MRI machine is broken.)  This made Mom pretty hissed off ... she was stomping around and muttering about some guy Murphy and his whole (insert expletive that I would get in trouble for saying but which Mom said a lot this morning ... not that I'm a tattletale, but hey, I'm just saying) family.  About the only good thing is that Phoebe and I both got to come to work , because that way Aunt K. could rest and relax and not be disturbed by us barking.  As if!!!!!!!!!!!  I am a watchdog.  It is my job to watch people and things go by the windows of our house and to tell anyone who happens to be home that "hey, something is going on out there that you might want to pay attention to."  And I take this job very seriously.  It is why I get paid the big bucks.  (Yeah, right!)  Well, anyway, Mom is tired today, too, and sort of grumpy, so it's good that we are here today to help keep her relaxed.  Which, I must say, we are very good at.  And often we are able to encourage her to get up from her desk and take us outside to walk around and stretch our legs.  Which we just did a few minutes ago.  (We also did some other things, too, and some of them Mom had to pick up in a little plastic bag, if you know what I'm sayin'.) 

Mom snapped this picture of us out in the grass by the parking lot:



Not her best photography (which is saying something) ... but at least the subjects are cute!

I think you all need to curl up and give Mom some special time tonight! It sounds like it wasn't her best day.

Cuddle Mom and help her to de-stress. We are sorry Mom is under stress. And we hope Mom and Aunt K have a better tomorrow.

Sounds like everybody could use a break! Tell your Aunt K good luck with the MRI...if the thing ever gets fixed!

Sorry you all had a rough night/day. I'm sure you helped your mom a lot at work though. I wish I could take my pups to work too! Get some rest. Hugs!

Oops, I just saw your comment--my mom was having a terrible awful day yesterday and I said it was OK if I didn't blog. (Not as bad as your mom and Aunt K's days, though!)

I hope tomorrow is better!

Your pal, Pip

P.S.: I really like this photo.

I am sorries about your Aunt K, but how could your Mom think you would "bother" her? As you say, "As if!!" The Humans need to understand that we (well, okay, just for today I will say "We" to mean the doggehs also) are comforting to the sick people! My goodness, doesn't she even know THAT???
