AuntiE, what do you have against poor old Slat? He strikes me as being a nice old guy. By the way, that is one nice dog house. How do you move it when you cut the lawn? It doesn't appear to be a mobile home.

I just noticed your date of joining.

I have nothing against "poor old Slat", except he is old.

All kidding aside. He and I are, in fact, dear friends. We enjoy picking on each other. Come August, we will have been friends for four years.

NATIONAL GET OUT OF THE DOGHOUSE DAY - Third Monday in July

National Get Out of the Doghouse Day is observed annually on the third Monday In July.

Generally, when you are “in the doghouse”, you have fallen out of favor with someone, usually your spouse or significant other. However, you can also be “in the doghouse” with a friend or your boss at work. National Get Out of the Doghouse Day is an opportunity to use all those good cliches and get you back in the big house where you belong.

Here are some tips to get “out of the doghouse.”

Put down the technology. If this is on your naughty list, don’t use email, texting or other technology to apologize. A face to face or hand written apology is best.

Meet at a favorite coffee house. The purpose here is to start talking. Listen to what the other person has to say and do not be judgmental or defensive. Find out why you are “in the doghouse” and give suggestions on how to you can improve or fix the issue.

Send flowers, chocolates or an appropriate gift. Include a hand-written note about how you are committed to fixing the issue. Do this AFTER you have already spoken. You will win extra brownie points as this will be unexpected. (Including brownies will garner additional points!)

HOW TO OBSERVE

One great way to get out of the doghouse is by bringing home some Colorado Jack Popcorn. Sweeten the deal with their legendary caramel or spice it up a bit with white cheddar & jalapeño. Share your best methods for #GetOutoftheDoghouseDay on social media.

HISTORY

Heidi Richards Mooney of Ft. Lauderdale, FL founded National Get Out of the Doghouse Day in 1999.

Well dad gum it! I was sleeping in my luxury canine condo for most of the day, and missed the opportunity. Oh well...there is always next year.

Thanks for your concern, Sisboombaa. "Dear friends" we may be, but the woman still commands that I 'sit,' 'beg,' or 'roll-over' before tossing a snack my way. It has been a long, arduous four years.

Gosh, I don't know if I should extend sympathies for your plight or congratulations for your courage and patience. I trust you keep a large box of bandages handy.

"Courage and patience," indeed...congratulations are in order. The woman is relentless.

hey sis
don't encourage Slat
(nice old guy)
he is the most dastardly Marine in existence
for years now he's been regretting the fact that the real Navy turned him down
and he sadly had to take second best---the Corps

Oh dirty rack-o-frats and double darn. It's starting to look like I'm being drafted to defend Slat. Sorry but I retired from law 15 years ago. No offense intended Slat but you are on your own. Good luck.
