A note from Lucy

I was trying to be productive this afternoon. With a load of laundry in the dryer, a pile of summer and winter clothes to swap out, and a kitchen that needed some attention, I decided to forgo an afternoon excursion to get Lucy some exercise. I told Chad he should just take Lucy to the dog park himself since I was really going to try to spend some time checking things off the to-do list.

Lucy came upstairs as I was trying to gather another load of darks. I immediately noticed something weird hanging off her collar. Turns out, it was a note for me. I felt like I was in junior high. Here's what it said:


How do you say no to that? Let's just say, we all had fun. Especially Lucy, who spent almost an hour running around in the little stream. Sometimes, I've learned, it's ok to be spontaneous. After all, the laundry was still here when we got home.
