Oh, what a mess!

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER IF SCOTTIE
HAD BEEN ON GRASS, AS HE WAS HERE.

When I got home from errands last night, I didn't see our collie Scottie, but I wasn't worried. He was probably hiding somewhere. No big deal.

But I got on the computer, and I heard a YIP! Normally, that means Scottie has laid down on the slick floor and can't get up. But as I passed a bedroom, I heard another YIP!


I opened the door, and Scottie sauntered out. Obviously, he'd pushed the door open, then pushed it shut when he tried to shove his way back out.


I hope he didn't make a mess in there.


Too late ... he did. That floor lamp will probably never stand on its own again, and he knocked both lenses out of a pair of glasses.


There's a book without a cover, and everything is in disarray. Sigh.
