Izak came over today to visit and ended up taking Sydney up to Camp Janet for a few days. It is really quiet around here now. I’m certain that Barry missed having her shadow his every move when he got home from work.
Maggie fell asleep and were able to have dinner without her barking or bullying us for a treat, strange not to be interrupted. We also went and walked around downtown Edmonds. It felt different to be a trio without the sniffing Pug.
What was really shocking, however, was that we noticed a squirrel on our back stoop drinking directly from Sydney’s water dish that we keep outside. Suddenly things became more clear in regards to Sydney’s barking fits that seem to strike at random times. Apparently she really has a reason to bark after all.
I’ve held a grudge against those dang squirrels since they ate all our tulips and cleaned out our front planter boxes, so at least Syd and I have something in common now.
