So far all we've had is rain and a little bit of wind. Linda woke us up at 6:30 a.m. to go outside. I was an obedient girl and listened when she said "outside pee pee pad." Even though it was pouring, I ran down the steps to the yard and quickly did my business. Chim would not go. She had to finally come outside and stand behind him, but he still would not go down the stairs. The last resort... The Mop. He hates the mop that she leaves in the corner up against the house. The second she took it away from the wall, he scampered lickity-split down the steps into the yard. She's not going to feed us until she is home from her morning classes though. There isn't enough time for us to eat and for her to walk him back into the yard to go to use the yard again. She has to leave shortly to teach. Linda's prediction: zero members in the 8:30 class and 5 in the 9:30. The gym is right in the middle of a downtown office complex and I think just about all offices are shut down for today. At least she'll still get paid. There is a Whole Foods next door, so she can wander the aisles waiting for her 9:30 class to start. (As we are typing this, the winds are picking up...yikes. Linda's little car only weighs about 29 pounds.) Tune back in later for a full report.
P.S. Happy Baby Day Kara!!
