Fetch and Water Bottles

I don't have anything to do today which feels so nice! I've been working all week on getting my office decorated and it's impressive that it takes all day, every day, for a week to get stuff like that done. Or maybe that's just me. I'm always buying and trying and returning....it's exhausting and causes my hip to flare up. Grandma needs to rest now.
Madison loves to play fetch but she won't let go of the toy when she brings it to you. It's amazing how strong that little 5 pounder is. I use all of my strength to get that toy out of her clinched teeth and she always wins. It makes it not fun to play with her. I don't mind throwing a toy if she'd actually let go of the thing when she brings it back to me. I've tried to explain this to her but she hasn't quite gotten it yet.
Ivy doesn't really care for a game of fetch. She still thinks empty water bottles are the greatest toys ever. From the crunchy sound to the way it rolls on the floor making it so hard to catch---she's obsessed. I brought home some groceries earlier this week and my sack of Sams flavored water busted in the garage. I had an arm load (because I refuse to make two trips to bring in groceries) so I left the bottles on the ground while I set my groceries down in the kitchen. I came back and Ivy was freaking out over the water bottles all over the ground and trying so hard to pick one up.

It's 11:15 and I'm still in my pajamas. I should probably stop being lazy and do something productive. Like, shower and get dressed then sit on the sofa and hunt for Christmas movies on TV. Sounds pretty great right?
