“Okay, Ladies. Time to go out.”
“It’s raining out there.”
“I just hate the rain, Lucy.”
“I know how you feel. The boss is not moving, though.”
“Which way you going?”
“Not sure, Little One. The rain seems to be coming down everywhere.”
“Oh, this is great. We have a wind chill of 44 degrees, and the door is closed.”
“Give it a whine and cry, Twiggy. That always works.”
“Here comes dad, Lucy.”
“I’ll put on my sad face. Maybe it’ll hurry him up.”
“Hey, Little One. This towel is for me.”
“You can share. I’m freezing.”
“So now you want to play with Flamingo?”
“What better way to warm up?”
“Hey, boss. Any chance for a treat? We survived the rain of 2020.”
“That’s pretty funny, Lucy. Who is going to straighten the mess you two made?”
“If you mean the mussed up couch cover, pillow on the floor, clownfish, Benny bones, and Flamingo strewn about, that’s all Twiggy.”
“I see a spec of dirt here, Lucy. That’s on you.”

They survived the rain of 2020, lol. When it’s cold outside, my mom gets a towel fresh from the dryer and spreads it on the floor of their screened porch so her cat doesn’t get cold paws. Maybe you shouldn’t mention it to Lucy and Twiggy – they might expect the same.
