The Replacements

Do you ever get the feeling that you're....replaceable? Well, I do. Mainly in the mornings after I get up and get ready for work. My lovely husband gets to sleep in for almost an hour past when I have awaken (I am so jealous). I love my husband would love to be able to spend more quality time with him. I thought our bond was strong. However, there is another female in his life who is quick to take my place in bed the minute I hop into the shower. Yes, that's right. It's Nala. This little bugaboo is stealth and very smart. She understands that pillows are for heads and your feet (or back legs) go towards the end of the bed. Mmmm hmmmm. The picture says it all.




See the lump on the bottom right? Well, that's her partner in crime, Neo. He will do whatever she does, so naturally that means he gets in the bed too. I don't mind because they are so damn cute, but come on guys.....do you really need my pillow?? This equates to many changes of the pillowcases and sheets.



Are you comfortable?? Can I get you anything? A toy perhaps? My goodness. Anyway, there is one more habit that Nala has that I'm not even sure K knows about (because he's off in dreamland). When I am done with my shower and ready to get dressed, I will decide the day's wardrobe in the closet. As I do this, Nala will inevitably perch her little face on K's body and watch what I am doing. I think Nala secretly has a fashion obsession. Backstory: Nala, although muscular and foreboding, loves to wear scarves. Yes, scarves. She especially likes my cashmere one. She will parade around with her head held high and a doggie smile on her face. So the picture below is how Nala got the nickname "Face." I love our pups. They provide so much entertainment and they probably don't even realize it.
