Happy Friday everyone. Thanks for coming 'round for another Story Time. On Wednesday, I told you about Mom's new camping sandals. Yesterday I shared something that came in the mail for me. Today a package arrived for Miss Murphy!
Miss Murphy used to be pretty finicky when it came to where she would lie down in a campground. Once upon a time you would never catch her sprawled out in grass or on gravel. In her old age, she will plop down just about anywhere when she's tired and needs a nap.
Her favorite place to crash when we go camping is on Mom's foot stool. It's too tall for her to jump on and off, but the biggest issue is that she spreads out and doesn't leave any room for Mom's big feet!
Several of Murphy's camping friends have cots that they lounge around on, so she told Momma Sharon it was time for her very own. A shopping trip to PetSmart and PetCo left us empty-handed. As soon as we got online on Amazon, we had lots to choose from. After checking out the reviews, Mom chose a small, light-weight one from from Spot & Bella.
We don't know who Spot and Bella are, but they've got to be happy campers when they have their very own brand of camping cot!
It went together in no time flat once out of the box. Miss Murphy is going to be able to hop right on and off of it since it's only 6 inches from the ground. It's made of a black and brown mesh that is breathable and that will keep her cool. The mesh has some give to it, so it will be comfortable. Mom will probably put her fleece bed on top of it to give it even more softness.
Gracie hopped on top of it first and then Murphy checked it out. They gave it the Schnauzer Seal of Approval.
Mom has already put the cot into Splish along with the fleece bed. The Murph is good to go and that checks something else off our list. Today we'll finalize our menu, choices for three potluck meals, and shopping list. Tomorrow we'll do grocery shopping, get Murphy's meds re-filled, fill the Yeti with ice, and get Splish all packed.
I'm not sure if Momma Sharon will let me have the computer again tomorrow, so I can't tell you if there's another Story for you read. Until we find out for sure, always remember . . .
"Peace, Love, & Keeping Murphy Comfy"
