Welcome back my friends to another great week of Paw Time with Houdini. This week, I want to talk about how helpful I have been here at the Hotel Thompson during renovation. I know – I know. We are all talking about it here. We just ALL want it done and over with. Just one more week now in the count down to the end. We can do this. Really we can. But at last, I donned my handy dandy flannel shirt and was ready for my tool belt to help the guys out this week.
Don’t let this size fool you. I have some power with this body. Really I do. I can be most helpful in pulling and tearing. Can we say goodbye carpet and linoleum? I’m also good about helping the guys out with their tools. Tape measures are my specialties. They fit nicely in my mouth and I can take off with them to help measure. And I’m good about staying on top of the guys to make sure they work. No playing on my job site. Nope not at all. I don’t care how many times you throw the ball for me to fetch – barks! And the front door – I got this. No one comes into the Hotel Thompson without me knowing about it. And trust me, if you don’t pass the Houdini – you don’t get it. And I’m cheap labor. I only require frequent naps throughout the day. But don’t think things go unsupervised when I’m not on duty. Shakes head – surely not. That’s when Bacon steps in for supervision. He means business. One snort and some of the guys can climb pretty high really quickly. One day – I want that power! He is that awesome.
Well, I’m off to do some more work around here. It’s not going to get done without us. I hope you had a wonderful week as well. Happy weekend!

Exactly what I think! I’m great at helping. Just wait until mom starts painting. I plan on using my nose to make prints in the paint on the bottom parts of the wall. That’s helping, right? ❤ Houdini

See, I’m doing my part then! I love making the guys place chase. My mouth is fast as lightening. I take off with things and run down the hall. Sometimes they don’t know what is missing for a while. It’s just my little game I play. ❤ Houdini

Tape measures are the best tools ever…you can chew it to pieces, that makes it easier to take the measurement of tight places :o)

Love that flannel! It really makes you look official! Now all you need is the white construction hat (management) and you’re all set 😀

OOHH Barks! I do need a white hat… and a tool belt. That would be so cool around here these days. So much going on and so many things to investigate and take off with – HA! ❤ Houdini

YES we do. You are so right there my friend. We do seem to tag team when the little guy is not swinging off of my tail or using me as his personal jungle gym. Snorts. XOXO – Bacon

Houdini, since you are working around the house, I’ve gotta ask you…do you have any butt showing while you are working? You know how you see workers bending over showing MORE than what you want to see! LOL

Barks! Does it count if I’m not wearing pants? Rolls around the floor laughing – just my worker shirt on and that’s it. Quite the vision huh? ❤ Houdini

I`ve just looked at a pencil sketch of Houdini. he looks very much like my old faithful `Lucky`, is his nose also wet and cold ? 🙂

YES! Snorts – that is too funny. He always has a cold nose and feet for that matter. Mom says she might have to get him some socks. *Now* that will be funny for sure. XOXO – Bacon
