Smile: Morning Greetings

by Jon Katz

I slept a little late this morning, it was so cold out, Maria loves to get out there and feed the animals in all weather, and I thought, okay, live with it this morning.

When she came back, she brought Zinnia and Bud up to say good morning, and the two piled into bed, crawled all over me, showered me with licks and then started wrestling with one another.

They had a blast on the bed rolling over each other, chewing on each other’s heads. These two have fun all day, anywhere. I rolled over, grabbed my iPhone and took a photo before shouting at the two of them to get off the bed, which they did. But gets upset when I yell, but with Zinnia, it’s like peas off a tank.

Bud hopped right off, Zinnia came up and licked my nose, and hopped off in a minute.

She eventually does what she is told but in Zinnia time. She is a Dog Of Privilege. If she were a person, my class resentments would bubble up, but as a dog, she’s just endearing. My smile photo of the day.

  1. I’ll be smiling all day over this one! (but you can’t top yesterday’s picture of Zinnia in your chair – that makes me smile every time I think of it!)

  2. Now I’m baffled! Peas off a tank? Mostly typos are endearing and fun to work out but you have got me here…

    I remember a library catalog card reading “tales from the old Horse” that we a nice one.
