Our weekend ended, so Hu-Dad settled into his study for his Monday routine – or, as Frankie calls it, another boring day at the office.

Are you going to work on that computer all day?

Yesterday was rainy, stormy and dreary all day, somewhat fitting for a Monday. That also meant that the deck was not providing prime Siberian sunning weather, so everyone hung out inside the house. Frankie claimed the spot right beside Hu-Dad’s desk chair – the better to monitor any movement for snacks.

Don’t worry – I will hear you if you move.

And that pretty much sums up our Monday. How was the start of your week?

Not even pretending any more.
