Tee Hee!

So, I've found this place in the house where I can hide and staff person can't find me.....

She'll look under all the beds, behind the chairs, under the desk, check the dining room chairs pushed up under the table (a former favorite hiding place until she wised up to that one), the bath tub, between the end of the sofa and the wall - you know, all the good ones. I've now got a great one however because she hasn't found me in it yet.

Take last night. She started looking for me, calling my name, and walking all around the house checking the above places. Then she got a little panicky and went out into the backyard because she had opened the back door a little earlier for a second, and let's face it, I've done the slippery exit through doors before where she didn't see me. She checked the backyard looking in all my hiding places out there and then came back in and re-checked all the inside ones. Then she got her flashlight and went back out into the backyard, checked it again (calling my name the whole time!), then went through the gate and down the driveway, around the house to the other side, down the fence and I finally heard her calling my name out in the alley. I was laughing sooooo hard! Finally I heard her coming back down the driveway into the backyard and decided to give her a break. I hopped up on the window sill in the laundry room so she could see me in the window when she got to the top of the deck.

She wasn't all that happy with me, but hey, I was here in the house the whole time - what did I do??? She called me a little trickster, and said maybe the Native Americans should have made me the trickster instead of some coyote. Ha. I think I have to agree with her on that - I'm way smarter than some dumb ol' coyote.
