Well. This morning I emptied the washing machine, putting stuff on radiators as the forecast is a bit dodgy for today. I picked Sheep 1 out (he's looking much better and definitely smells nicer) and put him on the kitchen radiator, and as I did so, guess what I spotted? Yep, the squeak that I'd 'lost'. I remember now, it was soaked through but not dirty, so I put it across the fins on the radiator to dry out. Oh dear....time to do some brain training!
On the dog front - Mollie wasn't in a morning mood today. It took some persuading to get her out of bed, and even then she just curled up and went back to sleep on the settee. So when I took her next door, I took a pouch of food with me and asked them to feed her when she wakes up...
Has anyone else got a dog that hibernates/suffers from S.A.D.?

Changeling
I know my dog.
My dog doesn't get up in the mornings unless you make her.
My dog refuses breakfast when she eventually does get up, and sometimes won't eat until lunchtime.
My dog gets out of our bed, comes downstairs and goes straight back to sleep.
Who is this strange dog I have today who woke me up with a cold nose and an 'uff' at 8 a.m.?
Who is this dog that demanded breakfast as soon as she got downstairs?
Oh no, hang on - after 20 mins of playing ball, she's curled up and gone to sleep. That's my dog!

It's a beautiful day
The sun is shining and there isn't a cloud in the sky. Finally, summer has arrived. So you'd think that Mollie would leap out of bed, grab a tennis ball and demand to play - but no, she refused to get out of bed. After being called a few times she reluctantly staggered downstairs and flumped onto the beanbag, from whence she gave me a hard stare before tucking her nose under a hind leg and muttering "hrrrrmmmmph" - remember the sound that hovercrafts make when they land and 'deflate'? It's extraordinarily similar. Obviously the cats were obliged to eat her breakfast rather than let it go to waste.
Mollie didn't shift again until it was time to go next door. When I opened our front door she had a brief moment of excitement as there was a strange dog wandering past so she obviously had to run out and chase it, which was rather worrying; luckily there was no traffic! On the way to the neighbour's she was still barking smugly to herself... but once there she went straight upstairs to bed.
Have I mentioned that Mollie doesn't do mornings?
