Daisy's favorite evening activity is cuddling with me on the couch while I watch TV and knit/crochet. She has her favorite blankie and can hardly wait for me to grab it before she leaps over the couch to be tucked in just the way she likes. This blankie is her favorite because the holes in the crochet are just the right size for her nose to sniff through, as well as her eyes to spy what's on the TV in case a dog appears on the screen and Daisy has to rescue us from that potential danger.
Mia, on the other hand, is not particularly thrilled that Daisy gets the special blankie while she has to stretch out on a mere towel that barely covers the couch she's NOT allowed to sleep on. (Well, that's the theory, but Mia does her own thing.)
Last night, however, after spending a couple of days on the coast, I was tired and forgot to fold the special blankie and store it off the couch. When I came out to the living room this morning, Mia had commandeered the blankie and it was evident from her fierce scowl that she is neither giving it up nor sharing it. Daisy, observing from her perch on top of the couch cushions, seems content to wait Mia out because she knows I'll pick up the blankie and not bring it out until it's time to cuddle after dinner.
Oh, well. Time to do some laundry, including dirty dog blankies and couch cushion covers.
