rainy day

it's raining and raining.  my dog keeps going over to the window, longingly looking outside and whimpering.  pacing and chewing on things he should not be chewing on to curb boredom.  we've played fetch and given a treat or two.  colin's walked him through the house a few times.  he came with us on a ride.  and it's not even noon yet.  he's just aching to get outside.  i think i am too.

(i did let colin stomp through puddles this morning.  a wet toddler is far easier to clean up than a wet dog!  smells much better too. :) )
