Mom's First Day of Work

Today was Mom's first day of work at the Office of the General Council, Department of Health and Human Services. Instead of staying at home, I got to go to daycare!! At first I was nervous because of all the other dogs, but then I found my special chair. It was just a half broken chair sitting in the play area, but I claimed it as mine. I sat up there on my throne most of the day just watching.

By the time Mom picked me up, I was sooooo tired. When I got home, I just laid down on my second favorite chair, chewed my bully for a little and then slept until morning.

I think I had a better day than Mom. After she dropped me off, she took the Metro to her work. When she got there, she had to wait in the lobby of her building for two hours before they let her in! She met another intern who she says is very nice and they talked for a long time.

Once she got past security, they showed her to her office.

Her office here is not even close to her offices at Latham and Irell. But she says it'll do just fine. She sat in her office for another few hours, waiting for someone to give her an office tour. After the tour, she just went back to sitting in her office until it was time to leave! I think Mom wishes she could have gone to daycare instead of going to work.

After Mom picked me up and we walked home, I could tell that she was getting a little lonely. But when we got home, there was a present waiting for us! Uncle Billy, Aunt Becky, and Lullabelle sent us some chocolate covered fruit!



Mom says I can't have any, but she gave me a treat when she had some.
