Aren't you gonna help me...???

When I looked out thru the blinds this morning, I saw the

GIRLES

staring

at their BALL in the pool.

*

How did their ball get in the middle of the swimming pool..??

 Uhhh.......well.......
the FIRST time, the high winds blew it in.
the SECOND time...???   well....
SOMEbody loves to tease these cutie pies....

CUMA stands watch on one side of the pool...
(because she just KNOWS that staring at that ball will perform a miracle by
just rising out of the water and landing at her feet)

while majestic ATHENA watches from the other side.

"Maybe if we join forces, we can get that ball over to the side."

Athena...."You're a Lab....why don't you just jump in, get it and swim out.?"

Cuma..."Are you crazy..?? No way am I gonna get all wet ...

just keep staring at it and it's bound to come to the side."

Athena...."Ok, Miss Smarty Pants...but I've got other fish to fry...

I hear the garbage truck in the alley and I need to run up and down the fence line

and bark at it.....it's my job."

Cuma...."Whatever....I'm not takin' MY eyes off this ball .."
"Look, it's getting closer..."
(she is SO convinced  that THE STARE will magically bring that ball closer to her)

"oops...
it's floating off again....KEEP STARING....."

Cuma....."WELL....aren't you gonna help me ???"

bj...."Ok, let me go in and use the bathroom..
all this water makes one need to ....well, you know..."

but before I could get back outside,
I saw THIS thru the blinds...
Bless her heart....all that staring paid off and she got her ball...

yeah....and now that all the hard work of STARING is over,
Athena believes SHE wants to play with the ball, too.
hahhaa....you are a piece of work, Athena....
and we all sure love you and Cuma to the moon and back.

 My cute blogging friend left the following comment and I

This post had me giggling the whole way through!! I'm so glad that staring paid off in the end. I kind of wanted you to dive after it and be the hero in the end. :)
