I Was Hoodwinked!!!

That's a Banana in front of my nose - I did NOT
notice it

I KNEW something was up and yet somehow my MOMMYS totally pulled the proverbial wool over my EYES. My lovely liquidy eyes. . . Deceived.

First came the hushed conversation about plans and plots.

Then OUT came the suitcases . . . that is, all except MINE!

Finally there was a bunch of todoing about who's driving where and WHEN.

Then it happened. My Mommys left ME for FIVE WHOLE DAYS!

It was so unfair. So unexpected. I really had no idea.

Day one - I sat by Mommy #2's door waiting for her to come out. No, I did not see her go IN the room. . . but I was sure she would come OUT of the room.

Day two - I sat by Mommy #1's door and waited for a while. Then I went downstairs and waited. . . waited. . .  waited by the front door.

Day three - I slept with one eye open the whole night and for every little unusual noise I ran downstairs to greet my Mommys.

Day four - I was getting a little worried they were never returning. I moped all day with my tail uncurled and down. This is how you know I am really sad. I was not just sad, though. I was downright FORLORN!

Day five - I decided it was time to get on with my life WITHOUT my Mommys. So I hung out with Cousin C and made her my new best friend. . . until

. . . until . . . . . . . . . The door opened and My Mommys returned!!!

GUESS WHERE THEY WENT???????

I could not stop smiling the rest of the day. But something was STILL not right! Mommy #1 went straight stairs and got really busy moving this and putting that into plastic bins. I waited for an explanation. I got one the next day when My Mommys and Aunt B loaded up TWO cars and took off. Mommy #2 and Aunt B returned later that day but not Mommy #1. 

It was time. Summer is over and Mommy #1 returned to university.

The trip had been a diversion to take my mind off the FACT that Mommy #1 was not coming home for at least 3 months. THREE WHOLE MONTHS!!!

HOODWINKED!!
