Blue Tooth Patio Umbrella
versus
Four Barking Dogs Next Door
~~~
Battle is ON!
I love dogs, don't get me wrong, but, enough is enough. My next door neighbors have FOUR beautiful dogs. They bark nonstop several (many) times a day and that includes every time I walk out on the patio.
You know, I think I should be able to sit outside in the mornings and drink ONE cup of coffee without four dogs barking nonstop. Finally, when my tolerance level has gone into over-drive, I yell, at the top of my lungs, "SHUT UP" - they stop. By this time, I am in a bad mood and don't even want my cup of coffee!
Just happened to be shopping for a new patio umbrella and the young man at the outdoor furniture place shows me a patio umbrella with blue tooth! At first I reject the thought - I don't need blue tooth music in my umbrella. Of course, it's a little more expensive. But, wait a minute! Maybe I do? The price isn't that much more and I'd buy the umbrella if blue tooth wasn't attached. It's the right size, color good, etc. It fits what I am looking for! Ring it up! Sold!
Well, I love it. The best thing so far is that when I started playing the radio the volume was so loud it shocked me. I immediately scrambled to turn the volume down. But, then, I noticed the four dogs next door had stopped barking. Oh my! Maybe I am going to win this battle yet. Thank you Lord!
I think Bear, Bodie, Blackie, and PrettyOne might just love it too. (I don't know their real names - this is what I call them.) We might be friends afterall.
I love dogs, but, I don't love four dogs barking nonstop. So, for now, I guess I'll just entertain them, huh? Guess we will see how long it lasts!
Rockin out the Barkin,
Gayla
Casey girl, i bought the umbrella so I could sit out on the patio and share some time with you. Miss you every day!
