Introducing Tess

Good Morning!

No, This is not a picture of me.  It is a picture of my daughter.  As you can see she is a bit of a lounger (lounge lizard, gad-about, lazy-pants, etc.).  This morning was no exception.  She declined to join us for our 5:00 am constitutional as she did not feel like getting up.  The concierge will allow this usually, which she did today.  Generally this does not pose any issues as the concierge knows that before breakfast is served she needs to be scooted out the door, which is what happened this morning.  My daughter, however, was in a hurry for breakfast so scooted out to fulfill the request of the concierge, but did not relieve herself.  Instead she chose to do that in a full skid racing into the kitchen.  Needless to say, this hindered breakfast significantly.  My daughter was escorted out (rather abruptly I might add) and the rest of us scattered to other areas of the house as the mess was cleaned up.  I expect the concierge to provide services cheerfully, I have to say that this morning she fell short of that expectation.  But once all was cleaned up, all breakfast and morning activities resumed as usual.  So, peace has been restored to the kingdom and no heads permanently rolled.  That's it for now....

'til next time...
