Please Let Sleeping Dog Sleep

~~~~This morning I actually woke up EARLY!! Ok, it was 7:30... Major early for me! I tried to go back to sleep - no dice. As I stirred around, I tried very hard to not lift my head too high, and keep the squirming to a minimum. I didn't want to wake "the Dog". So, I very carefully, squirmed my way to the edge of the bed, then I slinked over the wooden bed frame (waveless water bed). Finally, I slinked onto the carpet.
~~~~~If I lift my head over the bed, or stand, she will immediately awake! She sleeps with half an eye open! So I c r a w l to the door. I slowly open the door so she won't wake (who knows if door will creek or not). Then crawl out the door! YEA!! I MADE IT!!! Big *SIGH*. So, I happily stand up and walk over to the kitchen. Yea, I can watch some talk shows while I have breakfast! ~~~~~As I round the corner.... I see the family room. The side table is toppled over with all the remotes on the floor, DH's boots are scattered on the floor; one sock is missing. Then I see it - uh, I mean her..... DH had her hooked to her leash, (attached to my Gazelle) with lots of leeway for her to move around (had flexi leash). I guess she ate the other sock.
~~~~OH CRAP!! You mean I had done all that slinking and crawling and being ever so quiet to get out of my bedroom and SHE WASN'T EVEN IN HER KENNEL???!!!
Good Morning to Me.
