Stuck

Maybe it's us having to had boarded Shep last weekend, but he has been on me like glue since we've been back.

Me being home ill, and then 710 doing the same didn't help matters, as we didn't send him to daycare since one or both of us was around at all times. 

I love the dude, but his constant presence has been a lot.  ...all that said, we have some Fall and Halloween themes throughout today's post. 

He didn't like that the swing moved. He was not sure what to make of this. 

Fall Foliage. 

He has, and usually uses, the el at the end of the sofa for napping. 

As you can see, there'd be no personal space for me while trying to recover. 

We don't decorate, but our neighbors do. 

I'm sure they caught me doing this on their Ring doorbell. 

Even feeling crappy, I took Shep for a ride and then walk - at the Natural History Museum. 

He wasn't sure what to think of a statue of Balto (the real Balto is taxiderm-ed inside the museum).

He wasn't 100% sure of the Stegosaurus either. 

But then he went over and lifted his leg on Steggie II.  Yes, that's his name. 

And two nights ago, I go to bed to find him in our bed - on my side. 

He hasn't slept with us both (he did sleep with me in the guest room when I was ill, but to be fair, that is his king bed) in seven (?) years. But he slept between us. It was a little cramped, but he was being very very needy. How could I kick him ou?
