How is it that Pearl Bailey refuses to acknowledge the importance I place on her keeping clean? I mean, exactly 144 hours ago I picked up a spectacular looking dog with silky white hair and an aroma of lavender and lilies!
I guess I am just fascinated with the idea of her maintaining a gleaming pelt. That idea is not the reality I have been dealt unfortunately as Pearl Bailey clearly hold a different viewpoint. She is happy to perpetuate this unrelenting behavior at any cost which in turn is making me crazy.
When I think about what God did in 144 hours in delivering a perfect world in those six days, I guess I could muster up some more tolerance in myself in that same time frame. Frankly speaking though, I would prefer to change the behavior than acquiesce to it!
I guess my vision of a dainty femme fatale is just not meant to be. Pearl Bailey is an unreformable tom boy and that is just the way it is!
“Better warm and dirty than cold and clean.”
