A LESSON IN RESPONSIBILITY

Joey had a lesson in responsibility this morning.

She left the patio door open, and Cassie came running inside.

 (We didn't know there was a thunder storm coming, but Cassie had already heard it and had decided it was worth coming inside, even though she knew she was gonna get a but whoopin' for it.) 

Cassie proceeded to to run scared through the living room, peeing a little here and there as she went, partly because of the coming thunderstorm, and partly because I was trying to catch her and put her back outside and she knew she was gonna get a butt whoopin'.

Joey cleaned every one of our rugs, by hand, with a kitchen sponge and Resolve carpet spray. 

Yes, it was an accident. And I understand that. But you are still the responsible party. And you are going to clean up the mess that you caused, even if it was an accident. 

Now if I could only have a morning, I swear it would only take one morning, with some of the asshole adults we have running around this city.
