Yesterday was quite the exciting day at home I hear.\u00a0 Events of the day were driven by the psychotic dog behind us.\u00a0 We have long referred to this dog as “Stupid Mabel,” and she is well-known to us (and unfortunately probably everyone else within earshot) as Teagan’s arch-nemesis.\u00a0 Probably twice an hour or so, these two will meet at the fence and engage in a barking match that does not end until both are forcibly dragged away.\u00a0 They’ve never seen each other, being a wooden privacy fence, but from the sound of the barking they are quite sure they don’t like each other.\u00a0 They carry on like that all day long, even as early as 5:30 in the morning sometimes.\u00a0 (Oops, sorry everybody, yeah that’s my dog.)\u00a0 You can almost see it on Teagan’s face in the morning as soon as she finishes eating:\u00a0 “Well, that was a tasty breakfast.\u00a0 Hmmm, guess I’ll go bark at Mabel now, get this day off and running.”\u00a0 It’s even worse that she has, I have to admit, one of the most annoying barks I’ve ever heard.\u00a0 Mabel has a regular old “dog bark,” Teagan sounds like a Pomeranian that’s been hit with a cattle prod.<\/p>\n
Anyway, yesterday Donette stayed at home all day, because she had a lot of work to do.\u00a0 Apparently it was hindering her focus on said work having to go drag the dog away from the fence constantly.\u00a0 So, she walked around the block, knocked on the door, and asked if Stupid Mabel could come over and visit for the day.\u00a0 (Possibly without the “Stupid” part…\u00a0 I don’t know, I wasn’t there.)\u00a0 They agreed that sounded like a good idea, and she brought the mortal enemy home.\u00a0 What do you know, they hit it off instantly, and played together all day.\u00a0 They were actually both still together when I got home, although they were both so worn out I didn’t see them in action.\u00a0 Problem solved?\u00a0 We shall see.\u00a0 There were actually no incidents at the fence all evening, a first to be sure.\u00a0 We’ll see how long this truce lasts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
