Dog Nap

One afternoon, Sue was in the backyard hanging the laundry when an old, tired-looking dog wandered into the yard. Sue could tell from his collar and well-fed belly that he had a home. But when she walked into the house, he followed her, sauntered down the hall and fell asleep in a corner. An hour later, the dog went to the door, and Sue let him out. The next day he was back. He resumed his position in the hallway and slept for an hour. This continued for several weeks. Curious, Sue pinned a note to his collar: "Every afternoon your dog comes to my house for a nap." The next day the dog arrives with a different note pinned to his collar: "He lives in a home with ten children -- he's trying to catch up on his sleep."
