Instinctively known .





Just Wilf and the two of us in the house. Peace and quiet . For the first time in months no one belly flopping in the pool , no squabbling over the breakfast croissants , no midnight games of Hooley Hound touch rugby in the hallway , no Harvard professors working away in the library . Heaven .

After the excitement of the holidays Wilf is determined to catch up on his sleep . He appears at meal times and barks when he wants out . Apart from that he's tucked up at the foot of the stairs snoring gently away . Time to recharge the batteries . As all PONs instinctively know - " No day is so bad it can't be fixed with a nap " .

    Us cats agree too, the days and nights are for sleeping.

    Can't help but notice that Wilf's face seems to fall naturally into a happy and pleasing smile. What's that thing about older folk getting the face they deserve?
    Cheers,
    Gail (who is also enjoying some peace and quiet at home after a summer of visitors and visiting).

    I imagine you snoring... I have a blind and deaf Jack Russel visiting - through the car window he "saw" my dog - dog wonder - he is such a great dog and enjoys his family and life - love Susanne, Daisy and Foxiie

    Wilf has a big smile on his face in all the photos. Obviously he is enjoying the man-time with his best buddy.

    I wholeheartedly agree with that advice! I'm glad you're all enjoying some peace and quiet, but something tells me that it won't last for too long.

    Ah, I know the sweetness of quiet after a full house. Wilf looks happy in all his photos. That nap must have left him feeling relaxed and even wiser than usual.

    Isn't it wonderful to get things back to "normal"?

    Sounds like heaven to me.
    A softly snoring PON is like a lullaby.

    To me, a quiet house is absolute bliss! Just the ticking of the clock and quiet feet in the hall. Indeed there should be naps and smiles on handsome Wilf! Keep on going Wilf,

    With love from your Canadian pals,
    Dianna along with Tor, Willow and Tucker

    You are, as always, totally correct, Wilf. A nap, even a short one, heals the wounds of the day.

    Love your smile, Wilf!

    Kisses,
    Stella
