Our NOT so wonderful pets.....

So this past week our animals have been very annoying. Sadie has gotten into this bad habit where she'll start whining in the early hours of the morning wanting us to get up and play with her. She'll carry one of her toys in her mouth (usually her duck) and walk back and forth from my side of the bed to Brian's side of the bed, WHINING! As if I don't get enough of that at school! It's also starting to get REALLY cold here and I'm not enjoying being out in the cold waiting for Sadie to go to the bathroom. Which means Brian does it most of the time. What a guy!

Then there's our cats. This past weekend we woke up at 6:25 AM to the loud sound of glass shattering from in the other room. One of our kitties jumped up on the counter and knocked a drinking glass onto the floor! And then, just today, I came home from work to find one of my nice decorative plates in pieces on the kitchen floor. It was sitting nicely on top of our cupboards, but it doesn't any longer. It now resides in a box in our trash can!!! So sad!

Here's a picture of the pieces of the plate after I swept them up.


And here's the picture of where the plate used to sit on display! Just an empty space there now!


On a lighter note, we bought a new vacuum and I love using it. So it was just another excuse to get it out! It actually picks up all of the pet (and human) hair that used to stick to our carpet. It's truly amazing!
