2:46 AM - Jazi began barking, jarring me awake.
2:46 to 2:47 AM - repeated attempts by me to shush her and calm her down are not working.
2:48 AM - Jazi settles down, and I begin drifting back to sleep.
2:50 AM - I suddenly wonder if Jazzi came back to bed. I can't remember her coming onto the bed, so I sit up and check. 1 .... 2 .... 3 .... nope, no Jazi.
2:50 to 2:51 AM - I call her. No response.
2:51 AM - I realize she has gone out to potty. No problem.
2:52 AM - I begin to slip off to sleep again.
2:53 AM - I'm awake again, realizing Jaz is outside, and I have no idea what she was barking at .... not good.
2:53:15 AM- I get out of bed, find my way to the back door and turn on the back yard light.
2:53:20 AM - Jazi comes trotting in the door, tail wagging, "Hi, Mom! What are you doing up?"
2:53:32 AM - Jazi is curled up, gives out a happy sigh and is asleep.

4:39 AM - I still haven't been able to go back to sleep.
4:39:28 AM - Tell me again why I like these dogs???????
4:39:47 AM - Do you know how bad TV is at this time of the morning?
4:39:49 AM - Pleeeezz! Dogs??? Noooooo!!

4:49 AM - It's alright. I'm over it, and the dogs will live. It's just gonna be a long, loooooong day.
These are random musings of my life journey, the people, animals, places, and events which have woven, and continue to weave, a tapestry that is me. We all know there is no real destination, only the ongoing experiences which blend together, creating the trail. Each step gives a glimpse of what is to come, without allowing me to see the end result. It is exciting. I have a home base that is mine, that gives me a place to rest. This is it. This is where my heart is, no matter where I journey...................

ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky that you have a doggy door otherwise you would be getting up with them everytime they needed to go out.
ReplyDeleteAs I have always said...there is never a dull moment in your home.
Caroline, I know, I shouldn't whine about it, 'cause I do have it good. It's just hard to remember that in the wee hours! Living with these four critters, I have forgotten what dull moments are!! Can I stand more excitement?
ReplyDeleteOh....I think you can stand just a little bit more excitment. :):)
ReplyDeleteYa think????? :D
ReplyDeleteDogs got to love them. I do know how bad t.v. is at that hour. At least she didnt try to eat your nose like a certain kitten in this house does to get some attention.
ReplyDeleteBeen there! Caroline's right, at least with little dogs you can have a doggy door!
ReplyDeleteLate night/early am tv: you mean you didn't enjoy learning how to make millions in real estate or learn about the importance of colon cleaning?
Bobbie, I do love these guys, and I honestly wasn't upset with her. I just hated that my sleep went bye-bye! gah. But you're right, TV stinks at those hours!
ReplyDeleteSandra, yes, I'm glad I have the doggy door. I avoided "infomercials," fortunately, but let me tell you, the sitcoms that are on at that time are so lame!!! I also cleaned out my DVR which had a few recent things, and a bunch of stuff I recorded months ago, haven't watched. At least I made good use (???) of the sleeplessness!!
I hear you. Sadie gets up to eat every morning between 4:30a and 5am--if I don't get up, she just noses me more, whines and flaps her ears.
ReplyDeleteMJ, and we sometimes delude ourselves into thinking that *we* own *them*!!!!
ReplyDeleteWell I can say something positive - you don't have to get up for work after a crazy night like that! LOL
ReplyDeleteQueenie, yes!! And trust me, I appreciate it!
