Widget_on_cot_1
Regular blog readers probably remember some classic Widget sleeping photos in months past.  Well, Alayne and I were eating lunch yesterday when I looked over and saw this sight in the living room:  Blind Widget sound asleep on the cot in her own unique "Widget style" position. 

I quietly sneaked off to my office to get the camera and then took some photos.  There was no need to be quiet.  Widget was totally sacked out.  I clicked and clicked, she never stirred.

Intrigued by just how deep a sleep she was in, I picked up a nearby squeaky toy and placed it on her tummy.  Still no reaction.  When she’d breathe, the toy would start tumbling off her belly, so I’d have to grab it quickly and set it up again.  Widget slept through the whole thing.  I took the second photo as evidence.

Widget will sleep like this all day long, finally springing to life about 5 p.m.  "Just in time for cocktails!", she’s thinking.  (No cocktails served here, especially to someone with such short legs.)

    Thanks for the laughs! Obviously, Ms. Widget doesn’t believe in, “You snooze, you loose.” She loves to sleep more than I do. Now who said that? Was that Tobias or me? I’ll never tell.
    Big hugs to all,
