03 Feb An adventure for Tubby
‘What time do you call this, then?
It is 8:17 PM on the rocket clock, and I am exhausted but can’t sleep.
Tubby the dog has finally crashed. I suppose all the unfamiliar routines and environments was a lot for both of us, and we stepped out so that Tubby could pee at around 1:30 AM. I didn’t sleep much at all after that point.
I get the feeling that the adventure here is Tubby’s. He (I keep wanting to call them ‘she’) is in a completely new environment with a whole new person to care for him. I daresay it is quite a healthy thing to do from time to time, although 3 weeks is quite a stint.
Last night when I thought I should be somewhere else, this pet sitting gig didn’t feel like such a good idea. Now that I have given up this struggle to a large extent, I am enjoying the company of an animal friend.
