Pet Day

I usually put the dogs to bed when I do a workout, but I wasn't really expecting today's workout to be anything special since it would be the first workout I attempted after being sick for over a week, and my husband being home for a few days before that, so I let them stay with me.

When I tried to weigh myself they jumped up on me so the machine thought I weighed more than I did. This wasn't a problem except it weighs you before every exercise (one can only assume to make sure you weren't having someone else do your exercises, and if that's the case LOL) and when it said I was a different weight, the machine threw a fit.

Push-ups were impossible, because one was trying to lick my face while the other one climbed underneath me and flipped, looking like she was trying to hold me up with her paws.

I tried a bridge move, but they were both up against me, one on one side and one on the other, and it was hard to move.

So finally I gave up. I did put them to bed while I took my bath and let the cats out.

Crush, our orange tabby kitten, was worried about me the whole time I was in the tub. First he stood on the toilet crying to me. Then he had two paws up on the edge of the tub and started knocking things into the water. THEN (and most frightening to me) he had all four paws on the edge of the tub and looked like he was searching for a good place to step (ON me without getting INTO the water). I was scared because I knew he would fall and then he'd claw me trying to get out. Finally I put the kid's rubber ducky into the water to distract him. He smacked at the duck a few times, got his paw wet and went back to the toilet to cry. About that time I was ready for a quick rinse and then I'd get out, and as soon as I turned the shower on he shot out of the bathroom. But as I was drying up in my room he refused to leave me alone. I think either he hates baths so he was consoling me or he was worried I would die in there. It took a whole Friends episode before he'd leave me alone enough to get dressed!

Crazy pets today.
