Waiting on Duchess....

Every morning there is something that threatens to throw us off schedule. And that just won't do. I have this horrible thing about being to work on time or early. Thank you Ms. Soliz, this job requirement has lasted 9 years!

So each morning, I wake early and get myself ready about 20 minutes before the kids get up and then it's on.....

This morning it was Duchess and Murphy.

After breakfast she disappeared, and this is where I found her. Dragging Murphy out from under her bed, where she hids her Little Pet Shops. He likes to eat them. We find dismembered pet shop animals often.

So I finally got her into the livingroom where her clothes were laid out. Then returned to find this.

And this....... which after realizing that she'd wasted 20 minutes scolding the dog, we had exactly 17 minutes to leave the house exactly on time. So as cute as they were, I had to put my foot down.

Don't feel too bad for him. He's got a nicer room than most people. His own stylish carpet. A chicken, a bone and some snacks, and he's by the tv so he can watch movies all day on repeat.
It's highly unprofessional to be late to work.
Extreme measures!
