Remember how my mom fell and ended up in the hospital? Then the hospital released her and sent her to a convalescent home, and they in turn gave her physical therapy and sent her home two weeks ago.
One of the things that happens when you return home from a convalescent/rehabilitation facility is you need to be monitored by the visiting nurses.
Yesterday I came home at lunch to give Delilah her Benadryl and to walk the dogs. After we got all suited up we walked out the door and started down the driveway only to discover one of the nurses was parked in the driveway.
Sampson of course noticed her right away.
Someone is here! I’m pretty sure it’s because they want to see me.
I knew I could never get the dogs past her car, especially if she was sitting in it. Sampson is so excited to see people, he would literally drag me down the driveway. In fact, Tuesday on our walk we past a woman and her dog and he dragged me across the street in an attempt to greet them.
I noticed the nurse was talking on her cell phone, so I turned around and brought the dogs back into the house and went outside to wait.
I was on my lunch and while my boss wouldn’t be miffed if I came back late, I still don’t like to take advantage. I waited a couple of minutes and was just getting to the point where I was going to knock and tell her to either get out of the car and into the house or move her car from my driveway, when she got out of the car.
She hollered up to me, “Do you have to walk the dog?”
“Yes” I replied.
“You could have brought them down.”
“No, my dog is a doofus, he thinks everyone is here to see him, he would drag me down the driveway.”
True story. He checks every car we pass to see if there is someone in them. He gets a hitch in his giddy up when he notices a person either in their yard or walking. He roos at them as he approaches and tries to drag me over to say hello.
Thank Dog she’s not whining about me.
He really is a doofus.
