An attempt to lift my spirits.<\/p>\n

I woke up this morning in a grumpy mood which is unusual for me.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But grumpy turned to foul when I saw the temps that are expected around here for the next four days. During the night an already blistering forecast had turned hellacious, especially for Wednesday. So in an effort to cheer myself up a little I immediately abandoned my planned post and looked for something a little more… lighthearted.<\/p>\n

As much as can be expected the following photo does it for me. For some reason, amusement is nearly always one of my reactions when I see critters behaving in ways that we tend to associate exclusively with humans. In my case, my sophomoric sense of humor is almost certainly part of the equation.<\/p>\n

Whom amongst us has never sat on the throne in the morning… and yawned?<\/p>\n

I have a feeling I’ll be coming back to this photo several times this week, especially on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Happy Labor Day everyone. And don’t forget to smile – come hell, high water or blistering temperatures.<\/p>\n
