Flip, Tumble, and Stick

Chapter 12= Leia

So we went to beam, did warn up stuff, went to cool down stretch, nothing interesting enough to write about. Meg and I traded information so we could stay in touch. "Bye Lizzie, bye Meg!" I called to them. "Bye, Lia!" Meg and Lizzie said together. And I walked out of the gym.

"Hi mom!" I cheerfully said as I closed the car door. "Hi Lia! How was your first practice?" Mom greeted me. "It was amazing!" And I told her all about it.

When we got home, I was just starting to talk about bars, when my dog, Leia (A/N= I love Star Wars and Leia, Lia, it just made sense) jumped on me. "Hi Leia!" I said. "I missed you this weekend!" (I went to my dads house) She barked happily. "Oh! It's 5:00!" Mom said. "Lia, would you mind making Leia dinner?" "Sure!" I replied. And I got started.

"Two cups of dry food, two spoonfuls of chicken, two spoonfuls of green beans, protein powder (for dogs), and water." I thought to myself. I set the bowl on her mat and Leia came running towards it! She slipped on the floor a little on the way there. She stuck her head in the bowl and ate for a few minutes. It actually takes Leia only a minute to eat, but she keeps licking and licking the bowl in order to get EVERY piece of food that she can. It's pretty hilarious! I let her be and went to change out of my leotard.

I went into my room and hung my leo on my closet door. I took a shower, got my PJ's on, and started my homework. Leia trotted up to me and sat down. I started petting her soft fur. By the time I had finished my homework, Leia was fast asleep and it was 9. I made myself some popcorn and sat on the couch watching YouTube videos. This is what I would call a perfect evening.

I spent the next hour just watching YouTube videos. Leia finally woke up when I accidentally played a video that was really loud... She jumped up and started to bark. When she realized that everything was ok, Leia jumped up on the couch and sat next to me. Then, my mom came in the living room and told me to go to bed. I took Leia out for a quick walk and she did her business...

"Night mom!" I called. "Night Lia," said my mom. "Sleep well!" "See you in the morning! Come on, Leia," I said quietly. And I went to my room with Leia following me.

I brushed my teeth and hair. I put a fishtail in my hair so it could be curly for the next day. Leia stood behind me wagging her tail like she was waiting for something. "Oh right! I forgot!" I gave her a treat and off she walked to her crate. "You don't have to go in yet!" I said. I had brought my computer upstairs along with headphones. It was Tuesday, but I felt that I should just watch one thing. Well, of course that didn't work. It was 11:30 by the time that I had realized that I was getting tired. Leia had fallen asleep. I gently woke her up and carried her into her crate. I gave her a treat and she ate it all up. "Night Leia," I said. I turned out the lights, got in my covers and went to sleep...
