Whoever said...'Let sleeping dogs lie' never slept with dogs!

Dogs... Yes, I think in my next life I want to be a dog. Especially if I am owned by someone like me... a sucker for a wagging tail. It's really ridiculous. I have been diagnosed with a sleep disorder but I'm rethinking it now. Could this be the problem???Perhaps being pinned between two furry barkers every night has some effect on my ability to get a good nights sleep!

They certainly seem to be able to catch all the zzz's they want... no problem
any place... any time...

Yes, even on the piano! You can't tell from this picture, but the piano bench was pushed in too far for her to have jumped up on it. We were doing some work on the wall above the piano and spread a blanket out to protect it. We left the room and came back to find this. She must have jumped over from the couch!

Why would she prefer the hard piano to the soft couch???

Go figure!
