Chores are for the birds!!

Boy, we are glad Mom is going back to work today!  She was home some this weekend and was determined to get some things done around here!  She asked if we'd mind helping, and we said we'd be glad to (thinking once she was done she'd have more time to play with us!), but THAT won't be happenin' again without asking exactly what she has in mind!

The day on Saturday started off with changing our bed linens (we say OUR because we ALLLL sleep on the bed!).  Just so you know we really helped, here are some pictures as proof.  It was SO hard getting those corners tucked in right on that bottom sheet, so we had to grab a few zzzzzz's before we could continue!

After we got rested up from that, 'someone' thought it would be funny to hide under the top sheet:

  

AND under the bedspread!  I mean REALLY?!?!?!

After that, we moved on to the bathroom since it's just off mom's bedroom.  Her drawers REALLY needed to be cleaned out, so we got to work on that while she was off doing something else.  We hope she doesn't look in the trash and see everything we got rid of when she empties it!  

 We saw how SLOW things were going, so we decided it would be quicker if, instead of doing everything together, we split things up to move along quicker, so one of us cleaned out the Tupperware cabinet and washed clothes:

While the other cleaned out the litter box (ugh!!) and cleaned mirrors and windows:

Mom asked us if we could please fold clothes, too, but we were just too tired!  We decided that needed to wait until another day, so you see how far that got:

After we'd done all we could do, Mom said she was ready to 'reward' us.  "Uhhhh....not exactly what we had in mind, Mom" - but she gave us a manicure!!! We weren't too excited, but were too tired to fight it. Mom said she could tell our nails were too long by the way we were grabbing stuff and couldn't let to too easily, so we guess that's why she thought it would be a good idea!  We must admit, that's a lot of claws goin' on right there, but we were just expecting more for as hard as we worked.

Please know that we realize we have it really good here, but we are used to getting 16-18 hours of sleep a day!  All these chores SERIOUSLY cut into that, and we are exhausted!  We got that manicure, but hopefully she'll be coughing up some good allowance or extra treats for us - we certainly have earned it!!

We are going to take some time to rest and recoup, but we'll post again soon.  We have another story to tell of something we got in the mail last week!  

Thanks for checking in on ussssss.....zzzzzzzz.......
