Carbon and her Sit-Upon


When I was in Brownies -- a LOOOONG time ago -- one of our projects during day camp was to make a 'Sit-Upon" which if I recall was about half an inch of newspaper? sandwiched and sewn between two layers of heavy naugahyde (there's another dead giveaway of my age...) and then we used it to sit on around the campfire, etc. -- the purpose was to keep your rear end off the cold wet ground. Well, Carbon likes to use our little doormats as her sit-upon. They are tiny -- maybe 18" x 22"? -- but she can also curl herself into a little ball and sleep on them. Here is Carbon on her sit-upon.

















Here is Cody, her dog, on HIS sit-upon. Oh, excuse me -- Mike tells me that 'boys don't HAVE sit-upons. It is his orange dot.' OK, fine.

















And here is Carbon trying to steal Cody's orange dot. Not that she wants it -- she just doesn't want HIM to have it.
