Are You Done Yet?

When Hu-Dad is doing his busyness, Roscoe checks in on a regular basis and asks the most important question—Are you done yet?

Are you done yet?

Roscoe considers himself the official timekeeper of the family. He knows the proper time for all meals, walks, bathroom breaks, and—probably most important to him—bedtime. He has many ways to communicate deadlines but the most effective might be the chin resting on the edge of the desk, the soulful eyes staring at Hu-Dad as he does his busyness, and the question “Are you done yet?” Just try to ask for a little more time.

    I could never deny that little guy anything…what a sweet face!! I mean, what could possibly be more important than Roscoe and his big brown eyes. Busyness can wait. Work always waits for you, right?

      Hu-Dad says work always waits but he only earns kibble when he finishes the work. We think kibble is important, so we’re good with the concept, but play time is play time.

    An internal clock is the best, especially when it comes with such a loving face.

    Roscoe and others DO seem to have a built in clock-don’t they? How in the world do you manage to do ANY BUSYNESS Hu-Dad with those eyes looking at you??

    Who requires a Rolex, smartwatch or even the Naval Observatory time website…. live with a Siberian timekeeper and know the correct time to the second!
