Nightshirts and a Scare

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia

Do you ever get cold in bed? Sometimes, between the air conditioning and the overhead fan, I start shivering so hard I wake up Mommy. So she has started putting a lightweight shirt on me at night.

So, after a good night’s sleep in my sleep shirt that Mommy made me, and after my brekkies and after my potty out front, I decided to get in my red chair and watch what was going on in the neighborhood. What I found in my chair shocked me!

Mommy! I think Mr. Elephant – you know Mr. Elephant who was my Guardian Angel Lexi’s Elephant – is dead! What’ll I do!?

Oh, goodness! His bee-hind is still warm and smells like him. Wait! He moved!

*whispers* Oh my dog, Mr. Elephant. I thought you died. Please don’t ever scare me like that again! Psst, I love you.

    Chaplin: “Or maybe he was concentrating on something.”
    Charlee: “Maybe he was hearing a Who! Is his first name Horton?”

  10. How adorable! We keep the house around 69 degrees at night (we’re one of the few houses in this old neighborhood that has central ac. most people just have a window unit in the living room and bedroom). Abby sleeps on a bed in the corner in my office, and Larelei sleeps in a huge crate that’s covered by a light blanket. Being puppy mill dogs, neither has ever showed any interest in getting on the bed. They like their “safe” places.

  12. Mom opens the windows at night and shuts the AC off so sometimes we are too warm. Glad Mr E is OK

  17. Mon has never shut the fans off. She says that they are over 30 years old and they might never go back on again. Between the fans and the a/c, we are cool all year round. She has not made any shirts for us.
