A Dog Day Afternoon

Just another Dog Day Afternoon. Aside from the movie of the same name, I really don't know what that means. It's not Summer yet, and it rarely gets so hot you can't stand it, so I don't think we're preparing for the dog days of Summer, but we saw some wonderful dogs today, and these phrases kept going through my mind while we prepared the Cottage for her next guests. To stay in the flow of the day, we began watching the movie, Benji, and were interrupted by a wonderful, although brief, visit from an old friend, followed by a last minute inquiry for the Cottage which had us scrambling around to bring the task to completion. I guess you could say we were working like a dog. Or would that be like a couple of dogs. Yeah, I think that's it...like a couple of dogs. Big dogs. Well, Mr. Contraptioneer would be the big dog. I'd be a little more on the order of an Irish Setter, only because if I had to pick a dog I'd like to be like, it would be an Irish Setter...probably only if there were someone with a brush handy because I'd hate to get my fur all matted. If nobody had a brush and the willingness to brush me, I'd have to settle for being a chihuahua just because I've never seen anyone brush one. Want me to stop now? Yeah, OK.

Have a great week!!
