Reality has hit home

It doesn't matter how many puppies we have fostered...each time we have to be reminded just how much work a little 7 week old puppy really is. She woke us (or should I say me) up 4 times to go outside and to let us know that she was bored with the "sleeping thing". I'm so glad I took a few days off of work because I am pooped. The good news is that if you aren't sleeping you can manage to accomplish a lot of chores around the house. Night one...I have a sparkling clean fridge and several interesting science experiments found a new home in the compost bin. A few more nights and I could make a real dent in my to-do list.

I am also reminded why puppies, kittens and babies are so darn cute. It doesn't matter how sleep deprived or frustrated you are, one look at that face and your heart melts and nothing else matters.
