When the cats are away...
... the dog comes in.
Everyone's gone out.
And I have the whole house to myself.
It's just me, lazing on the couch.
Sunshine's on the floor next to me (yes, she's in the house! whoopeee! shhhh, don't tell mom).
The TV is off for a change. No incessant chatter from Wah Lai Toi or screaming spectators from Star Sports. The phone's on silent. I hear nothing but the whirring of the fan, the twitter of birds outside and Sunshine's breathing.
We fall in and out of sleep, my left hand draping over the couch to rest on her soft furry shoulder.
Sunshine stirs. Her sharp ears prick up. A neighbourhood stray is trotting by the house. But she's too content to move or bark her displeasure. Oh well. We both go back to our lazy, peaceful Sunday.
I love it.
Every weekend should be like this.

Yules: *wags tail and dribbles saliva all over*
Farked: Serious ah! Hahahaha! Too late, no more choc chip cookies left. Anyway, they're bad for her. I'll try to make some homemade dog-friendly cookies for her one day.
Natasha: Hey there! :) Yeah, how cool is that! Where did you get Cleo? Sunshine is almost 2 years old now.
I think I might have met you and your dog very briefly at one of those doggy events in Central Park, BU. I remember a yellow lab named Cleo who loved the water in the pond.
Sunshine loves it too, but her skin's been sensitive lately, so I didn't let her swim at the last outing! We should have a play date one day! :D Belly rubs for your girl. Hope her foot's better now.
Hello hello...
Yes we may have crossed paths... cleo's coming up to 3 now... we aopted her from a friend's friend in Old Klang road...
Yes she would love a play date... Must set up one as soon as Cleo's foot is all better...
Hugs for Sunshine from Natasha & Cleo
