Drabble:
And after a long day of laying around the house and chasing the neighbor, the brindle lab mix stretched out as if to say she worked hard today. She had accomplished a lot, despite what you might think. The overactive pup got in two naps, an hour of tug of war with her dad, and even threw up on her mom's new rug because she ate too fast after running as fast as she could along the fenceline. The mutt finally rests her head on her father's lap as she lets out a long puppy groan, "it ain't much, but it's honest work" the dog thinks to herself.

Authors Note:
For my Drabble I was inspired by my dog, as per usual. She is seriously the light of my life and I do not know what I would do without her if anything happened to her. She also happens to be a very easy topic to write about, as she is sort of a clown. As for my 6-word story, I was inspired to write about something many people across this country are going to face this holiday season, unfortunately. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many people will be without their loved ones. It can also be interpreted in the way that people will not be seeing their relatives this year due to safety measures. I know I personally cannot risk seeing a family member, an elderly relative, or a newborn, this holiday season without a guilty conscious. I think it is best everyone stay home this year, but of course, there is only so much we can do. That said, let me know what you think!
