Adventure Dog

 This morning, I tried out Door Dash and ordered a breakfast sandwich to be delivered to my door. (Aside: it took longer than predicted, I suspect because I'm in a small town and probably there weren't a lot of drivers lined up waiting for jobs. So, while initially my order was supposed to arrive in about half an hour, it arrived in an hour. I had opted to receive text updates, so I wasn't left wondering.) When it arrived, I opened my door and picked it up.

An hour or so later, I happened to catch sight of movement on my deck outside and looked to see if it was a cat or a squirrel. To my astonishment, it was my dog! Speaking of door dash, she must have dashed out the door when I opened it momentarily to get my food. I can't imagine how I didn't see her, but I didn't.

I went and opened the door and made calling noises and she came trotting inside. All that time, I'd thought she was asleep under a quilt. I wonder where she was during that hour. I guess I'll never know.


I'm glad she returned safely.
