oh no, what did i do???

this is me, havin' a nice day, patrollin' the yard, makin' sure that everything was in order. that's my job, and it's the only job i should do. it's right up my alley, outside in the nice air and sun, with lots of places for snoozin'.

but today, i started to think ooh no, what have i done? what is one of the absolute best things ‘bout bein’ a poodin? bein’ taken care of, that’s what. how else would we be able to sleep 20 hours a day? how else would we be able to gaze contentedly out the window for hours? how else would we be able to lie in a patch of sun and stretch our toes without a care in the world? it’s only because they take care of us.

i’m sorry, fellow poodins, i did a bad thing. the other day, when i was bored and i drew a picture of myself so many of you sent me nice compliments. well, when my Mom read them, i could see the little wheels start turnin’ in her head. she looked at me and said “Edsel, all your friends really like your drawing. and you’ve been blogging, you know how to write and you haven’t run out of things to talk about like you were afraid of.” and then she said “since you can draw too, i bet you could write a children’s book! how exciting.” and before I knew what was happenin’, she was setting up a “work space” for me so i can work while she’s at work!! now what do I do??? i don’t want to work, it’s not right for a little poodin to work, oh what have I done?????
