Back to Singapore

Mom went back to Singapore from May 22-28. It was so confusing! Usually we stay in the house with her and play together for a couple of hours in the morning or in the afternoon. Even if she's working on the computer and basically ignoring us, it's still nice to be able to play by ourselves around her. That's our favourite spot under the computer table.

But early one morning she just left us and Dad put us in the garage all day! We kept wondering when he was coming back to take us back to the house and barked and barked all day long, but soon realised he had left us too! Howl!!!

At 6pm, though, our good friend and pet sitter Mr Nakatani came by and took us out for a walk, which was fun. By the time Dad came back, it was night already. He took us out for another short walk before taking us back into the house to sleep. Words cannot express how relieved we were to be back in the house, and back inside with Dad. Perhaps a photo will do the trick?

After almost a week of such a hellish and high-strung lifestyle in the garage, where every passing neighbourhood dog can see us in abject squalor and pity, Mom finally came back. We were absolutely ecstatic, and Hop wagged his tail so hard he hurt himself banging it against the door. Mom looked tired but happy, and said she had a great time eating Singapore food and meeting family and friends. Surprisingly she didn't gain any weight while she was there. She brought us two big hard white bones from Singapore. Here's the only picture she took while in Singapore -- a photo of one of her favourite Indian dishes, Roti Prata. Apparently, she was always so eager to eat that she completely forgot about pictures to show us. Aw Mom!
