A merry dance

Well here we are again, and I've been meaning to tell a few stories -

Last week Richard went to bed before I did, and (alhough she NEVER does this for me) Maddie went and snoozed on the bed. I decided not to force her downstairs since she would undoubtedly growl at me and fight attempts to remove her, waking Richard.

To be honest, I thought she'd get bored and go off to sleep downstairs anyway.

So, Richard wakes up and decides to shift Maddie downstairs. She duly grumbles but goes downstairs with him. On the way back up he stops off at the bathroom; meanwhile Maddie has discovered that the other door is open and has delightedly trotted back upstairs and onto the bed to wait for him, tail thumping!

I couldn't help but lie there, waiting for him to come back, pretending to be asleep - but it was really hard not to give myself away by laughing out loud! I just lay there, giggling & shaking silently, while Richard got back into bed and discovered his faithful hound was re-awaiting him!

Although in the end I had to get up and help, since she was having such good fun giving him the runaround!
