Learning The Basics

This backgammon thing is difficult when you can't reach the board with your short legs!

What a busy day I've had.  My kingdom was invaded by a bunch of strange men with hedge clippers, weed whackers, pruners, ladders, and wheelbarrows.  I had to spend most of the time barking incessantly and loudly at them, but they must all be deaf, because no one obeyed my commands to GET OUT!  My mom told me she was tearing her hair out this afternoon, but I think she was exaggerating, because she seems to have plenty still on her head.
