I read somewhere, that if one writes a blog, it should be about YOU, not about me. Well, if that's true, YOU should be writing it and not me, right? Grouchy enough? I apologize.
I have writer's block, and I mean - HUGETIME blogger's block. Since I don't write for a living, and don't have to pay the rent based on income from typing and intelligence, creativity, or pretending to know something about something, then it's not as huge an issue that many people I've met in cyberland, might experience. I mean what do they do when they have a headache, and have writer's block?? I can say I now understand what you sometimes go through to just a tiny degree.
Possibly this typers' block is due to changing weather, or possibly this particular unique bloggers' block is due to the dog waking me in the middle of the night telling me he is afraid of the wind, and I should get up and sit with him. Give me a break! We live in Iowa. The wind blows here! Deal with it! (I once heard that).
This dog is the hugest dog I've ever known, and probably if you saw him, you would say the same. He about smashes your arm when he wakes you - and then he smiles at you. I am not kidding. He does smile. And he really does ask fairly nicely if he can sit with one of us, So, one or the other of us gets up, and sits with him. I mean after all, he's just four.
The 150 pound lap dog eventually feels better. So we feel better. And when everything is better, we all go back to sleep, until the next round of wind flips through the rafters and he hits the repeat button. I sincerely do hope we never have to experience an Iowa tornado; but if we do, could we come to your house, and you could take a turn? After all, this is about YOU (and just partly about the weather). I think I'll catch a nap. You think about it OK?
He sounds like a Big Baby, and we all know that babies are adorable. This picture is kind of funny, though. That you and Don so obediently "hold his hand", so to speak during these times.
ReplyDeleteThat he is charming and polite and smiles at you, this explains it, and explains why he's not in the garage or basement like other canines. You paint well with words, Toni, and it's a shame about the writer's block. In spite of the "block" you told a good story and gave me a picture that made me smile. CW
My dear friend, Carole! How nice that you've been reading my blog. Yes, he's a HUGE Big baby! Thank you, too, for the encouragement to paint another word picture soon.
