Bored but with hope!

Mom and Dad have been soooo busy lately.  It has been ridiculous.  No walks, no bike rides.  No car rides, no outings.  No kayaking.  Not even a good solid game of tug.  Mom plays chase now and then, but that bores me.  Rocky likes it.  Mom must be dumb or tired because he even won a game of hide and seek last night.  He was running the circle from the bedroom to the pool and she was catching him at the doors...but then he switched up on her and snuck up and tagged her  in the butt with his nose.  Maybe he is getting smarter. 

Dad has had the flu.  I'm not sure what that means except he has been home, but all he wants to do is sleep.  Brandon is here too, but he doesn't want to play either.  The good side of those two things is Rocky gets to stay out of his box and play with me.  The bad side is dad has been cranky. 

Mom hasn't been much fun either.  She is working all the time.  She has computers and stuff that she always seems to be on doing something important.  I don't bother her, but Rocky tries.  It doesn't get him much more than a couple nice pats and words and a shoo away. 

I want my ducks back.  I haven't swam in ages!  I love to swim.  I heard dad say that Brandon should clean the pool deck tomorrow, so I'm going to ask to swim first...that way I won't make a mess. 

I don't usually care about making a mess but here is the good news....!   !  !   I heard mom talking on the phone today and it seems like Grama is coming tomorrow.  I LOVE grama!  She is a tiny person, but she isn't a kid.  She L-O-V-E-S me!!!!  She likes Rocky ok too, but I know I'm her favorite.  Grampa is coming too.  I love him.  He is a dog person from way back, I can tell.  He hasn't even met Rocky yet, so I have the inside track.  And I heard mom tell dad she was taking the whole week off starting tomorrow!   This is going to be so fantastic. 

I know it is Christmas, so we have to be good so Santadog brings treats.  But I also know about Christmas people food....yee haw!  I think my boredom over these last few weeks is about to pay off  big time....I'll keep you posted. 

Below is a picture of us with Grama.
