The dreaded monsoon season is upon us. It started on Friday and, in looking at the weather report, I see that we are scheduled for thunder showers each day through at least next weekend.
Oh how Lacie HATES this time of year. She hates thunder and lightning. Yesterday, I was reading in the late afternoon and Lacie came up by me and started "pawing" my hand. She only does this when she really, really wants something. I couldn't figure out what she wanted. It wasn't time for dinner. I wasn't eating anything to share. She had water in her bowl.
And then, I figured out that we were going to have a storm. Lacie was shaking and was trying to get between me and the side of the chair. She seldom comes to me during thunder storms as she prefers to hide in her Pink Princess House or under the bed in the quilts that are stored there. But for some reason, during the last 2 storms she has come to me and asked me to hold her -- which, of course, I gladly do.
I just wish I could help her through this time of year as I know how upset she gets.
