Feeling down

This week, I am quite sad. Sarah thinks I have depression as well as a chicken leg and a not-completely-black nose. If I do, it's entirely 'bucket related'. I am still forced into the offending plastic at nights and when the humans are at work. It is an outrage. A funny thing happened this morning though, Sarah put on the bucket the WRONG WAY ROUND! I looked as though I was stuck up a drainpipe. I gave her a very hard stare, but she didn't even notice it was back to front, until Syd pointed it out. Women, honestly. Thank goodness for my man human.

Also would you believe that Bodger the cat from next door has taken to sitting on my front door step? This is the worst outrage of all. I don't mind cats, but I do mind who sits on my step. He is 'taking advantage' Sarah says, because I cannot go outside. He'd better watch his step though (ha!) because I will be reclaiming my territory very soon. He has been warned....

There have been two happy things this week though, both involving ladies.

My friend Victoria came round to visit- she is nice. Even better than Victoria though was the great big pig leg she brought with her. I could not stop wagging my tail and sniffed so hard I got a headache. I was very excited. I have had pigs' ears before - they are my favourite. But never a pig leg! It was a Christmas pig leg that she couldn't eat so she shared it with me and the humans. Actually I think she got a bad deal, as all she got from Sarah was an 'OK' magazine in return for a whole leg, and they taste rubbish. I like Victoria even more now! Sarah could learn a few things from her.....

The second good lady thing was that Carolyn, my babysitter came back. I did not see her over Christmas; I had to put up with 'the S's' and I missed her a lot. Carolyn usually takes me off in a van and I go for walks with some other doggy friends. This time though she just came to visit me. She was sad to see what S and S had done to me (I told her it was all their fault). She gave me a lot of love and treats. I hope she comes back again every day. I am sure I can persuade her to liberate me from THE BUCKET and maybe get that pig leg out of the freezer....?

If any more ladies are planning on coming round to visit this week, can they please wear shorts? I am missing following girls in shorts since I am not having my walks at the moment. If legs in shorts could come to see me, that would be very good and would help my recovery. I asked Syd for some photos of ladies in shorts to go on my blog but he said no, he would get into trouble. Here's a photo of Syd in shorts, but it's not really the same.....
