Fave photo of the week

Brianna brought my granddog Hunter over for a visit this past week so he could play with Mickey and Lyla for a bit. After an hour or so of running around in the yard, the trio decided to hang out with me while I worked on the computer.

This is what I saw each time I glanced over my shoulder:

Left to right: Mickey, Lyla and Hunter.

Today's question:

Dogs and cats live for their naps, and I recently read that one-third of American adults nap on a typical day. Do you take naps?

My answer: I don't nap, not even on weekends, although I probably should. In fact, since being laid off from my full-time job more than a year ago, I've taken exactly ONE nap -- and I was sick. It's not because I'm high energy and don't need to recharge; it's because I feel guilty for not being productive. (Yeah, I got issues ... or so I've been told.)

Looks like Lyla can stop chewing up carpets long enough to nap with the boys. Cute pic!


Yep, I'm one of those nappers.

Great photo!

I do not take regular naps for the same reason you don't. If I'm really tired and being crabby to everyone I ask myself if I could fall asleep right now, if the answer is yes I go lay down. Usually that results in a 2 hour nap. This happens maybe 3-4 times a year. I do veg out in front of the TV in the afternoon about once a week... I guess that could be considered a nap, lol.

Yes, I am a napper when able. 15 to 20 minutes makes a big difference on my outlook for the rest of the day.

Great blog!

I absolutely take a nap for about 30 minutes every day. I sit in the glide rocker instead of laying down or I would nap longer! I feel re-energized and refreshed and then get more done.
