Forget the cake, gifts of paper or anything else. Here at the Saratoga Animal Shelter we're celebrating the one year anniversary of Randi and Earl with 24 Hours of Mischief. I felt it was appropriate to have a mischief theme as that is what Randi and Earl do best.
It's hard to believe that it's only been one year since Randi and Earl showed up at my gate. Since that time they've committed uncountable acts of mischief, resulting in the loss of socks, underware, sports bras, Clark's toys, sandpaper, three or four dog beds and most of Sarah's patience. And so for the 24 Hours of Mischief they've been quite reserved. Maybe they're maturing. Maybe they're out of the "terrible two's"; I'm not really sure, but they are quite calm.
I on the other hand, have managed my own mischief. Accidentally, I drained half of the pool yesterday. I didn't want to drain the pool, if I had, why would I have just put chemicals in it? So I was surprised when I saw that half of my pool water was in the backyard and not in the pool. I created more mischief when I tried to fill the pool back up and the hose fell out and for who knows how long, it watered my backyard. Brilliant.
However, the 24 Hours of Mischief are not over.
