Sunny Paradise to Whole lots of Wetness!!! & More Wetness to Come?!?!?

Hello from Soggy San Diego!!!

Last week, Banzai & I were in the sunny doggie paradise at Grandma Sue's house. Grandpa John calls me "My Girl," and we played and played all day! Grandma Sue takes rowdyBanzai graciously, and she loves him!!! After the 3rd day or so, we thought this fun would never end, and it seemed like it until the phone rang on Saturday evening...

Sunday, Sue & John loaded us and our stuff in the car, and we were back home in 15 minutes! Don't tell that old lady, but I was kind of happy to see Nikki again! So I did some pappy dance for her. And what I get in return??? WORK... As soon as Sue & John left, the harness was on my back, and we went to Subway to pick up lunch for humans... Where's my treat??? A couple of kibbles don't count after the 5-star treatment we were getting! Anyway, Nikki slowly brought me back to the reality of guide work. As good as I am, I got in the rhythm after a few miner hiccups. It was nice of her to start with an easy rout to Subway. Well, thought I was done after that! We did have some play time & such. But in the evening, the harness showed up again, and we were off to a long list of grocery shopping! What was worse, we had to make 2 trips to the same store because Nikki was airheaded and left her money at home... You know how I hate repeating!!!

We woke up yesterday with a sound of rain! God, do we really have to go to work??? Unfortunately YES... I wore the rubber-ducky rain coat from Pet Smart; yes, it looks cute on me, but it doesn't do the job very well... By the time we got to the office, I was soaked and stinky according to my mean lady! I didn't wear booties though; I hate those things, and whenever I wear them, one of them comes off while walking...

It was raining all day yesterday. We went out for potty/post office run around lunch time, and got wet! Business in the rain isn't too bad. I kind of like to take my time and sniff the flesh grass, but Nikki tells me to hurry up! On the way home, I had to work extra hard in the rainy evening. San Diegans don't know how to drive in the rain!!! I had to dodge people, back up from a car, and zigzag among shopping carts, bikes, and other stuff on the sidewalk... Isn't it too much for my full work day after a week-long vacation???

Today the rain is taking a break now, but it's supposed to come back tonight! Hope it waits till we get home.
