Thursday – A Little Personal – Twiggy and Tempeste – Doing Nothing

~ John W. Howell

“What do you think, Twiggy. Time we do something?”

“I suppose. You know those long weekends knock me out.”

“What are you doing in the kitchen?”

“You never know what those two might drop.”

“Yeah, like what?”

“Oh,  I don’t know. Maybe a bit of cheese or cracker.”

“Okay, so I ran over here, and nothing. What are you doing in the laundry room?”

“I know Mom keeps toys in here, and I thought maybe I could snatch one.”

“Yeah, that’s rich. When has she ever just left a new toy lying around?”

“There is always a first time.”

“I’m going to ask the readers if you have lost your ever-lovin’ mind.”

“Well, it is worth a chance. There is something on the dryer.”

“Hey readers

“People out there are going to laugh at you.”

“You never can be too sure. A quick look over there . . .  and no toy.”

“I’m going to ask someone to call 9-1-1 in a minute.”

“Okay, so there is no toy in there. Since when have you become so responsible?”

“Well, I’m trying to demonstrate that I’m maturing.” What’s that noise?”

“Sounds like someone went outside.”

“I think you’re right. Might not be a bad Idea.”

“Well, as long as there aren’t any new toys in here, why not?”

“Sure is nice out here. We can even see the flowers.”

“Maybe growing up might mean no leaf chewing.”

“It might take more than that.”

“So in the meantime, there is the fence.”

  6. Girls, you have to make your own luck. My daughter had a dog that would simply reach up onto the table or counter and take whatever was available. You may have to push some chairs around or stand on the others shoulders. Good hunting !!

  12. I love Twiggy in the first photo. You know she had a lot going on in this post. And Tempeste is becoming more mature? I think she still bears watching, Twiggy.

  16. So much fun to get into the heads of these cute guys. Also, I’m super impressed by how clean and uncluttered your kitchen is! I can’t imagine these two critters find much that you two drop.

  26. I always enjoy their discussions, and those sweet, expressive faces speak volumes. I especially love Tempeste looking so alert at the top of her puppy ramp looking into the kitchen.

    They certainly got around in this set of pics!

  29. No food on the floor. No toys to be found. No leaves on the ground. Someone’s having a not-so-lucky day. Sending the girls ear scratches as they while away the hours. (Conferring with the flowers?)

    Sorry. Certain song lyrics just refuse to stay in my head.

  33. Hmm, it does seem like there are no toys around. What is going on?

    No leaves to boot?

    Mom is winning!

    Love and pets to both of you and a coupe of 🐂 🐂 for dad!
