Sunday, February 15, 2015

Tommy started her wake up calls around 6:00, but only did a couple before the 7:00 A.M. call. Since I still hadn’t gotten around to ordering the thermal drapes, I had hung a flannel sheet on the window to help keep out the cold. I also wanted to see what Tommy would do before I ordered drapes.
When I had “hung” the sheet last night, Tommy had inspected it, but then left it alone. This morning it was still hanging which meant that she hadn’t tried climbing it as the tape on top would not have held her. Tomorrow I can set up the appointment for the drapes.
We had a quiet morning with me working on postings and Tommy working on her tan on the ottoman. We did have a short play session, but Tommy pretty much left me to work on the transcriptions and also doing some much needed cleaning. I also had a chance to clean her teeth and she was pretty cooperative considering that I was using a dental wipe.  Once that was accomplished, Tommy had her hairball treats and grass for lunch.
When I went to watch the basketball game (Go Badgers!) Tommy was waiting for me on the sofa. She was asleep and surprisingly stayed there during the game. She usually leaves; I don’t think that she likes all the noise during a game, especially if I’m the one making the noise.
After the game I went to run errands while Tommy continued her nap on the sofa. When I returned Tommy trotted over to greet me and remind me to get out he dinner.  After a play session it was time to eat.  Tommy finished about half her meal, saving the rest for later.  I may need to go back to the dinners # 1 and 2.
A bit later she finished her meal and we settled in to watch the SNL anniversary special. Tommy must have found it not to her liking because she left the room. She alternated between sitting in the study and the bedroom.
When the special was over I started shutting down the condo.  Tommy was in the study and since I started in there, she followed me around the condo as I worked.  When all that was left was the bedroom, she led the way.
When I went to brush my teeth Tommy sat in the doorway and watched. She’d never done that before so I wasn’t sure why she did today.  With both of us ready for bed, I put out her snack which she ate right away.  While I finished watching the news and then turning out the lights, Tommy did her usual patrolling around the bed on the floor. I know that when she’s ready to sleep, she’ll come up on the bed to her usual spot.
