I couldn’t sleep very well last night, because I was congested. John got the ceiling fan installed last night, but we couldn’t get the dimmer for the remote to work, so we left the electricity off in the bedroom. As a result, the alarm clock wasn’t functioning, so I had to sneak into the spare bedroom (now Candy’s escape room) and check the time on the computer. It was only 4:30.

I sneaked back into the room and got a little bit of sleep before the jingling made its way up the stairs. All three dogs came up at once. Flower barked hi to me briefly and then headed over for her morning tussle with John. I played with Candy and Dottie, and struggled out of bed at 6:00.

It was a quiet morning. When it came time for treats, John got out the chicken-wrapped sweet potatoes and gave some to Dottie and Flower. He whistled to Candy, and she came running from the very back of the yard, where she had been investigating. We love watching her run. She’s very fast.

John and I were gone off and on during the day, so I didn’t spend much time with the girls. I got the impression that the girls weren’t very happy with me. They stayed in their corner whenever I was there. My guess is that they don’t like sharing me with John, which they have to do a lot now, since he is on vacation, and they definitely don’t like it when I’m gone very long.
