Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Thirty Seven

I had to guard the house a lot today. And my friend Emmet too.

After Zita went to the rascal ladies office Craig had to drive Niamh to our nice dentist doctor Don. 

And then to her important meeting. 

And then to Miss Rima’s little apartment.

Because she left her new old bicycle there last night. 

Then she had to get Emmet to open the door late late late last night.

Because she left her keys at Miss Rima’s. Oh dear. 

That is why you have big brothers. So nobody knows when you get in too late at night. It is known. 

I know when everybody gets home. But it is just a for me secret. Ha. Good for me. 

So I guarded the house all by myself when Emmet was downstairs in his comfy bedroom.

He was making his giant story beautiful. 

It is not a very nice day outside today. It is a bit rainy all the time. Oh well.

We only played catch the ball a bit.

When Craig got home a headache caught him. And the sneezeles too. Oh dear. Too bad for him. 

So he had to go to bed for little nice nap. In the dark . 

I guarded him. All by myself. Ha. It is my favourite job. 

It is not so hard guarding Craig and Emmet. They just stay in our house. 

Tonight everybody is coming to our house to play the dragons game. Mister Kirian too. Ha. That is good.

They had tasty fat pastas for their dinner. Downstairs in Emmet’s comfy bedroom. 

I kept them company. Good for me. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Thirty Six

We did not go for our nice walk this morning.

Because we went to the make me beautiful store instead. 

Even before our toasts. Ha. Too bad for me.

When Zita and I got home Craig was gone. 

He and Mister Paul went to the not so much money for breakfast IKEA store.

But they had lunch there instead. And got lots of brand new things for Mister Paul’s other house. 

When Craig got home and saw me he said I was as beautiful as could be. 

He told me. So it is true. Ha. Good for me. 

Then Zita went to get cousin Orlaith at the buffalos building.

Because she has an appointment with the fix your hurt foot lady. Ha.

So I had a nice nap. Going to the make me beautiful store always makes me very tired.

Emmet went to see his friends from his nice university and play another game with them. That is nice.

My friend Niamh has started her very big get everybody to vote for their own rascals story. 

Our friend Tara even talked about it on the radio. In not too far away Toronto. Ha. 

I cannot vote. I do not know why. It is not so fair. I know lots of rascals. 

Sometimes I do not even bark at them. When they come to my house. Ha. Good for me.

Now the rascals cannot see me on my patio anymore. Ha. Good for me.

Because everything is all green. Even Craig’s weeds. Ha. 

It is a beautiful day outside today. It is even hot. We put the make your house cool machine on. 

So nobody will be too hot. And get all smelly. Ha. Too bad for them. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Thirty Five

Zita and I had a nice walk after she drove cousin Orlaith to the buffalos building.

It is a beautiful day outside today. Just a little bit hot. We did not see anything interesting today.

Because we had a early in the morning walk. 

When we got home Craig and I had the very nice crunchy fat toasts. Ha. Good for us.

But Zita had to go to the rascal ladies office right away. Because of the big numbers. 

She did not have her too much coffee and toasts with us. Oh dear. 

Then Niamh was all awake too. 

She went out to breakfast for her friend who goes to the old university in not very far away Montreal.

Then Miss Devon came to make the house spica and span. With the noisy machines. 

I went outside and had a nice long nap on the warm stones in my side yard. 

Craig just stayed in the den. And my friend Emmet stayed downstairs in his comfy bedroom. Ha.

They were hiding from the noisy machines too.

After lunchtime I hid with Craig in the den. With the door closed. Ha. Good for us. 

Tomorrow I am going to the make me beautiful store. Because it is summertime time. 

You cannot be too furry in the summertime or you will just get too hot and melt into just a puddle. 

We always go early so I am all finished as soon as can be. 

I do not like not being away from my own house so much. Unless my family is with me. Ha. Good for us.

The present man came two times today. Different presents men. Ha.

One man brought a big package for cousin Orlaith. 

And the other man brought a book for Craig. All about way way old stories from Scotland. 

But Craig did not read it. He was reading stories or our nice Queen instead. Oh well.

Emmet and cousin Orlaith went for a nice walk to get Zita a nice beer. 

Because it was too hot inside today. Oh dear. 

Maybe we will watch new detectives tonight. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Thirty Four

I got treats last night. Downstairs in Emmet’s comfy bedroom.

Because Emmet and Niamh and cousin Orlaith and Miss Rima were playing the dragons game. 

So they had their tasty dinner downstairs. In Emmet’s big bedroom. 

We had lots and lots of delicious cheese. And very chewy from France bread. Ha.

I got some too.

Because I was minding them. Ha. Good for me. Then I had a nap on Emmet’s full of pillows bed. Ha. 

Craig and Zita had their dinner upstairs. All by themselves. Oh well. Too bad for them.

Later I came upstairs to mind them too. When we watched the detectives from way far away Australia. 

This morning Zita and I had a fast walk. Just all around. But fast.

Craig did not have toasts today. He only had some too much coffee. I do not know why. Oh well.

So I went downstairs to mind my friend Niamh. On her big comfy bed. In her brand new bedroom. 

I did not mind Emmet. Because his brand new door was shut. So I just minded Niamh. 

Then the present man came to my house. I heard him. So I came right upstairs. 

To guard Craig. It is my job. 

Because maybe it was a nasty person who wanted to steal our all fixed bicycles. 

Then I could just chew them until they told Craig where Mister Clifford is. Ha. Good for me.

But it was only the present man with brand new fast running shoes for cousin Orlaith. Oh well. 

Then my friend Garry came over. He was very glad we sold his too many chairs.

Niamh will not be home for dinner tonight because it is her day to mind the too nice little girls. 

Emmet is still writing his very big story. 

And he told me it will get even bigger. 

A nice lady came to our house today. She wanted us to vote for another rascal. 

Craig said we were already going to vote for our rascal. But he said thank you for being a good helper person. 

She knew I was a Bouvier dog. Her family has Bouviers too. 

She liked my name. She said it was a very good Bouvier name. That is right. 

After our dinner Zita and cousin Orlaith went to the full of food store. 

So we will have lots of tasty food and not starve away. That is good. 

Craig just watched the hockey game. So I had a nice nap on the big comfy bed. Ha. Good for me. 

Maybe we will watch the same detectives tonight. Maybe.

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Thirty Three

Zita had I did not have even a little sleep in today.

We went for a nice long walk instead.

Craig stayed in the big bed. So he could watch the little race cars. 

When Zita went to take Craig’s mother for a little walk I minded Craig.

It is a nice quiet day for us.

Because yesterday was very busy for us. 

When Niamh came home she went downstairs right away. To have a nice nap. 

Because you do not have a nice long sleep when you have sleep in with lots of little girls. Ha. Too bad for her.

It is not so nice outside today. A just full of flat clouds sky. Oh well.

Yesterday Zita and cousin Orlaith brought all the bicycles back from the fix your bicycle store. 

Now my friend Niamh has a nice old bicycle again. But it is not her own Mister Clifford. Oh dear. 

Before lunchtime Cousin Orlaith went to Mister Starbucks to do more homework for her very far away university.

And Emmet was playing his game with his far away friends. 

Zita went to Mister Kettleman’s tasty bagel store. So we had bagels for our lunchtime. 

With Craig and Zita and Emmet and Orlaith too.

Because she was finished some of her homework.

But she was all filled up so did not have any still hot bagels with us. She just talked to everybody. 

Niamh went over to visit Cara and Lee. And paint pictures. That is nice. 

Tonight Emmet and Niamh and cousin Orlaith are going to play their dragons game. 

They do not have real dragons. 

Because real dragons only live in way far away Wales. Inside very old mountains. 

And can only speak very old Welsh. Just like my friend Emmet. Ha. 

Then everybody was busy. So I had a nice nap. Ha. Good for me. 

Before our dinner we moved Craig’s father’s gold giant chair back into its own corner.

Because everybody said it is way too comfortable. 

So now we have Jamie’s chair on the other side. It is another way comfortable chair too. Ha.

Craig is going to make the other not so new chair all beautiful too. With special slippy for nice wood wax. 

So Zita put it in Niamh’s old bedroom. 

Now everybody will want to just sit in our comfy chair living room. Ha. Good for us. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Thirty Two

I had a very busy day.

Because today is the sell all your too much stuff day. 

We had lots of things to sell. Even Niamh’s old bed. And lots and lots of books. And chairs too. 

Professor Jill came to our house to sell her too much stuff. 

But we bought her two beautiful leather chairs. Before anybody saw them. For our house. Ha. That is silly.

And she brought a tent too. So we would not get all went when we had some rain. Ha. 

And there were two nice boys helping Miss Ginny sell her too much stuff. 

And all made of wood tables that they made themselves. Ha. 

They had a tent too. Ha. Good for us.

Niamh and Miss Rima were up very very early. 

Because they were working at the Center Building. Selling tasty treats to everybody. 

Cousin Orlaith and I went for lots and lots of walks. Ha. Good for us.

And I sat in the tent and guarded everything. Ha. Good for me.

Craig bought more music machines. But they were not black. Ha. 

I got a new just for me table for my water and my tasty dinner bowl. 

My own dinner table. Ha. That is good. 

Then Craig and I had our lunch in the house. Where it is nice and cool.

I watched everything from my watching window. 

I am the the best watcher dog. It is known. 

Last night we had Craig’s Sing Happy Birthday party.

I got him a secret present. It is a beautiful tshirt with a Canadian dog on it. Ha. Good for me.

And Niamh and cousin Orlaith got him lots of chocolates. 

And a big go round and round wooden plate for the dining room table. Ha.

And Emmet gave him more very little knights. For his little castle. Ha. Emmet always gets Craig secret present knights. They are his favourite.

Zita found a kabillion t-shirts with pockets. Ha. They are Craig’s favourite too. Ha.

And we had the special with your name on it cake before Niamh had to go back to work. 

Then we had hamburgers. Made out side hamburgers. Ha. 

And we sat at the dining room table until Niamh came home. We were laughing all the time. Telling stories. 

We had a very happy Sing Happy Birthday party. Ha. That is good.

Craig and Zita cleaned the not new chairs all up. They used to be my friends Zorro’s and Jamie’s chairs. 

I could smell that. Ha. That is good. They were my go for nice walks friends. 

Now the chairs are right in our living room.

But now we have to paint the behind them wall. 

Because it is too dark. Oh well.

My family likes painting walls. 

I cannot be a big help. Dogs are not so good painter helpers. Oh well. 

Niamh is not even coming home tonight.

Because she has an all little girls at the Center Building sleep over. 

All night long. At the Center Building. Not her in her brand new bedroom. Oh dear. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Thirty One

It is Craig’s Sing Happy Birthday day. 

I did not know. He did not tell me. Nobody told me. Oh dear.

Maybe I do not have a secret present for him. Oh dear. That is not right. Oh dear.

Even before our toasts Zita gave Craig a big hug and said Happy Birthday. 

Then I knew it was his Sing Happy Birthday day. Oh dear. Too bad for me. 

Craig and I had very fat crunchy tasty toasts for our own breakfast. That is good.

Then I minded Craig on the sunny comfy living room.

We listened to nice music. Not Scotsman’s noisy music. Ha.

Craig did not read anything for our nice Queen today. 

Because it is his own Sing Happy Birthday day. Ha. Good for him. 

He just read his book. 

I was very busy last night.

Zita did not come home from the rascal ladies office until bedtime. 

Because they were way too busy. With their big numbers. Oh dear.

So Niamh and Orlaith and Miss Rima and Miss Taryn made a breakfast for dinner last night. 

With bacon and not so very fat pancakes. Ha. That was a good dinnertime.

Then they all went over to Miss Bruna’s house. To get a sofa for Niamh’s brand new bedroom.

Because Miss Bruna gave it to Niamh. Ha. That was nice.

So all the ladies took down the scary stairs. 

I could not help. I had to mind Craig in the den.

Because the sofa was very big and maybe I would get squished if I was a helper. Too bad for me.

My friend Niamh told me it was a Poppy sofa too. Ha. That is a good sofa. 

I can only have nice naps on the downstairs sofas. Not on the upstairs sofas. Too bad for me. Oh well. 

Niamh and cousin Orlaith have Poppy sofas. And sometimes I fall fast asleep on Emmet’s lay down all leather sofa. Sometimes. Ha. 

Emmet is downstairs back in his comfy big bedroom. Writing his bigger story. 

All about way way old doctors in long long time ago Ireland.

Tomorrow is the sell all your way too much stuff to just maybe strangers. 

It is my guard everything day. Ha. 

Because it is my friend Craig’s Sing Happy Birthday day we will have an all on fire cake tonight. 

With only some candles. 

Because cakes are not big enough for all the candles.

Because Craig is now even older than before. Ha. That is silly. 

We are going to have our secret presents and the on fire cake even before our dinner.

Because Niamh has to go back to the Centre Building to mind all the children at the for everybody dance. 

I love undoing all the presents. It is my favourite job. I am a big help. Good for me. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Thirty

It is a very beautiful day outside today.

Zita and I had a nice long walk before she went to the Rascal ladies office.

Craig did not have a sleep in today. 

He only had his too much coffee. We did not have toasts. I do not know why. Too bad for me.

He was busy buying names for Niamh’s Rascals idea. For the computers. I do not know how. 

Niamh already has lots of very nice name. Some she does not even use. Oh well. 

Then Miss Rima came over and she and Niamh went to Mister Starbucks store to write even more about her idea.

Last night she talked to our friend Tara about it. She is going to visit Tara in Toronto to talk even more. 

And eat some of Tara’s very tasty cooking treats. Ha.

Now that Emmet has all his computers all fixed up he is writing more of his very good story. 

To make it even better for his important tell everybody your stories meeting. 

Maybe even in way far away Wales. Maybe.

Craig and I played catch the ball lots of times today.

Because it is just all beautiful and full of sunny skies today. 

That is a good day to play catch the ball. It is known.

Emmet went for his nice walk two times today because it is beautiful outside. And not way too hot. 

Cousin Orlaith is going out with her buffalos building friends to have drinks and talk. 

Then she came home for our tasty dinner. 

There were some smelly skunks across the street. 

The man tried to scare them away with loud music. Ha. That would not work. 

Niamh’s loud music does not scare Craig and Zita away. Ha.

So he got a man in a big truck to catch them and take them away to a far away forest. 

But is was very smelly outside after lunchtime. Oh well. I was not smelly at all. That is good. 

We will have an altogether dinner tonight. Maybe we will have cheese. Or used pizza. Maybe. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Nine

We had a very nice long walk this morning. After Zita drove cousin Orlaith to the buffalos building.

No buffalos came to visit her yesterday. Oh well.

Maybe next time the buffalos go for a nice walk they will visit cousin Orlaith. Maybe. 

Zita and I walked all the way to our very big lake. 

Nearly all the beautiful flowers were gone. Too bad for us.

We saw a giant brand new house. Right in front of our lake. 

It is a way too big house. Maybe giants will live there. Maybe. 

And it is all nearly black. Oh dear. 

It is a beautiful day outside today. Everything is just all green everywhere. 

And full of bright sunshine too. Ha. That is a good day. 

My friend Garry came to visit me this morning. That is nice. 

My very big cousin Matty did not come too. He was having a big nice nap. At his own house. Oh well. 

It is going to be the sell all your too much stuff to everybody else day very soon. 

My friend Garry has too many chairs. He is going to bring them to our side yard.

So we can sell them. For real money. Ha. That is good. 

Emmet and Niamh found lots and lots of pictures in the scary basement. 

So they are going to put lots of them on their new bedroom walls. So they are as beautiful as can be.

Miss Andrea came to my house at lunchtime to take my friend Emmet to a tasty lunch restaurant. That is nice.

Zita and Niamh looked at a very big map. On the floor. 

Because Zita and Niamh and Orlaith are to for a long drive in the black go fast car. 

To a not so far away place. Beside the giant lake. For a little vacation. In a little while. 

I cannot go because my best job is to stay here and guard Craig and Emmet and our own house. 

Zita took Niamh’s old bed all apart. So we can sell it on the special sell everything day.

We found lots of Emmet’s fierce weapons under the bed. Even his giant not very real axe.

Emmet went for a very long walk. To the same store as Antigonish. To get his favourite iced tea. 

But they did not have any. That is not all right.

We are going to have own made pizzas tonight. For our altogether dinner. Ha.  

Maybe we will watch the detectives from way way far away Australia tonight. 

Sometimes they have kangaroos. Ha. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Eight

There are Buffalos everywhere. On the road. Oh dear.

The radio said lots and lots of very big buffalos had left their own farm and went for a long walk. 

Altogether. On the streets. Oh dear. Buffalos are very big. 

Sometimes they are very fierce. They squish dangerous wolves all up. Ha. That is good. 

Maybe they are going to visit the Buffalos building. Maybe they will see cousin Orlaith. Maybe. Ha. 

Everybody slept in their own beds last night. Me too. Ha. That is good.

Emmet and Niamh were very busy moving everything all around. So their bedrooms will be just perfect. 

Zita and I had another nice walk this morning. All down to the other pond. To see the ducks.

All the pond trees are as full of leafs as can be. That is nice. 

Miss Devon came to our house today. To take away all the dust Mister Mitch made. Ha. 

When he was fast awake my friend Emmet went to the little store up on the busy street. 

To get more wires for all the televisions he has in his own bedroom. 

I do not know why he has so many televisions. 

He does not watch the from far away detectives on them. He only watches his computers. Oh well. Too bad for him. 

I went downstairs last night to the basement. It is a scary basement again.

Because everything thing is all changed. There are new walls. 

And a brand new see right through it door. And even windows right in the walls too. 

And Emmet’s door does not open anymore. 

I can only get into his comfy bedroom with his new at the other end of the room door. Oh dear. 

I do not like everything to change. Oh dear. 

Now maybe I will get all lost downstairs. Oh dear.. 

Then I got up on Niamh’s not so high anymore bed. For a little nap. Then I felt better.

And I found Emmet’s brand new door so I visited him too. I was very brave. Good for me

Today I kept Craig company in the den when Miss Devon was here. 

Then I had a nice nap on the big comfy bed. 

Away from the noisy machines. 

Niamh and Miss Taryn went to the IKEA store again. I do not know why.

Maybe to have a for not so very much money lunch. 

Or maybe she forgot new bedroom stuff again. Oh dear. 

Emmet is downstairs in his big bedroom. Making his old computer work. 

So he can write more of his story for the important meeting in way far away Wales. 

His very fast computer is still at his new another university. In a big box. In Antigonish. Oh dear. 

We have lots of computers in our house. I do not know why. 

I just watch the interesting stories on them. Sometimes. Oh well. 

Maybe we will watch the detective tonight. Or maybe I will have a nice nap. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Seven

It is a do not go to work holiday today. For everybody. That is a good day.

So Zita and I went for a very early long walk. There was not even anybody else. 

They were all still fast asleep. Too bad for them. 

Because it is a brand new beautiful day outside today. Not even one cloud in our own very blue sky.

Because Mister Shadow and Miss Maggie are not watching the beautiful important wedding today. 

They have chased all the sheep clouds to somewhere where it is way too hot.

And everything needs the fat shady clouds. Ha. Good for them. 

When we got home Craig was all awake too. So we had our toasts altogether. Ha. That is good.

Mister Lyndon is back from the nasty food hospital. All fixed up. Ha. Zita saw him. That is good.

After toasts Zita and Niamh went downstairs to the brand new bedroom. 

To make the floor as clean as can be. With scrappers. 

Because sometimes Mister Mitch spilled bits of paint. On the floor. Oh dear.

Now Mister Mitch is all finished. Except for some little mistakes. 

He will comeback and fix them perfect when Niamh is all moved into the brand new bedroom. 

And Emmet is back in his own comfy bedroom. Ha. That is right. 

Making the bedroom floor all nice and clean takes a long time. I minded everyone from the top of the stairs.

Zita and I caught two awful mosquitoes last night. In our bedroom. We squished them. Ha. 

So this morning we put the special flappy keep the bugs out door on the side yard door. That is good.

Because nobody likes mosquitoes in their own house. 

I stayed outside on the nice warm stones in my side yard. All afternoon. Sometimes I had a nice nap. 

Doctor Susan came to visit us after lunchtime. And to see the brand new bedroom too. 

And Miss Taryn came to be a make the closet helper. Ha. That is nice. 

Zita and Niamh took Niamh’s bed downstairs to her bedroom. Tonight she will sleep there.

Because that is where her bed is. Ha. 

Her old bed is now just empty. Ha. That is a silly bed.

And Emmet will sleep in his own big cosy bedroom again. 

With his comfy leather lie down sofa and fat chair. 

And all his computers and his big full of comfy pillows bed. 

And all his very interesting books. Full of stories all about way way long time ago. And way far away too. 

Now everybody will be in their own beds again. Ha. That is good. 

I have lots of my own beds. Good for me. Ha. 

Poor cousin Orlaith is still doing homework for her far away university. 

Even when it is a holiday. That is not so nice.

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Six

It is sleep in Sunday but Zita and I did not have a nice sleep in today.

We had a very early walk. All around the ponds to see my friends the ducks.

Then I sat in the black go fast car to mind Zita. 

Because she had to dig up lot and lots and lots of too many weeds in our garden. 

That is why we did not have our nice sleep in today.   

When Zita is in the garden everybody wants to talk to her. That is why I have sit in the back car to guard her. 

But I was a big help guarding everything. She told me. Ha. Good for me.

Then Mister Paul borrowed the black go fast car to take lots of paint to his house. 

From the paint store. He has to paint his other house. All over everywhere inside. Ha.

Everybody is painting everything. 

Orlaith made a very tasty own made lunch for Craig and Zita and herself too. 

Emmet and Niamh had Mister Kettleman’s tasty bagels.

Then Zita and Niamh and Orlaith went to the IKEA not very much money for breakfast store. 

Because they forgot some things for Niamh’s brand new bedroom. 

After lunchtime Mister Mitch came to nearly finish the bedroom. And this father too. Ha. 

My friend Emmet is very busy writing even more stories. That is his favourite job. Ha. 

He has to have lots of Irish tea so he can write. I do not know why. 

Craig can only read his books if he has some too much coffees. 

People are very silly. It is known. 

Mister Lyndon had to go to the nasty food hospital. This morning. Before breakfast.

We will have an altogether dinner tonight. That is good. 

Because his tummy was way too sore. Oh dear. That is not right. There are too many sick tummies. 

We had a very late lunch when Zita and Niamh and Orlaith came home.

Craig and I had croissants with full of holes cheese. Ha. Good for us. 

We could not play catch the ball in my side yard so much today.

Because Mister Mitch has put all the too much extra stuff from Niamh’s new bedroom there.

Oh dear. Now there is no room for Craig and me. Oh dear. That is not right. 

Zita and I had a nice walk before dinner. We walked with Professor Jill and the little dog. Ha. 

When Emmet was on his before dinner walk he saw Professor Alec and Miss Francis. 

They want to have a tasty lunch with us. That would be nice. 

Maybe I can go too. Maybe. If it is an all outside restaurant for nice polite dogs like me. Maybe. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Five

We were up early this morning. To watch the beautiful wedding. From way far away England. 

In a giant castle. With soldiers on giant horses with swords. With lots of very shiny armour. 

And lots of music. And little children helpers. 

Because the lady’s beautiful dress was so big they had to help carry it. Ha. 

Our nice Queen was there too.

Because it is her very own giant castle. Ha.

That is a good wedding. 

Craig and Zita had a wedding in a giant tent. In our old other backyard. 

But our nice Queen was not there. Or nearly any relatives. Only their own nice friends. 

And a giant chocolate cake. Ha. 

I was not there. Emmet and Niamh were not there either. Just Craig and Zita. Too bad for them. 

It is Craig’s old friends breakfast day today. 

Zita and I did not take him. 

Because Mister Mitch and his father were here. To make more very loud noises. Before breakfast. 

They were putting the doors and windows in Niamh’s new bedroom. 

Craig and Mister Paul went to the old friends breakfast restaurant together. Ha.

Craig did not stay so long today. He is still a bit too sick. So he came home early. Oh dear.

Emmet went for a very long nice walk at lunchtime. 

Zita and I did not go for our walk until very late.

Because she had to talk to Mister Mitch. 

It is not a very sunny day outside today. Just all clouds. 

Maybe Miss Maggie and Mister Shadow were too buy watching the beautiful wedding. 

Just like Craig and Zita and I did. Maybe. 

After lunchtime Zita and Orlaith went to the tasty food stores to get us lots of food. 

So we do not just starve until the wind blows us all away. Oh dear. I would not like that. 

Niamh was downstairs getting all ready to move into her brand new bedroom. 

And give Emmet back his big comfy bedroom. And his big comfy leather sofa. Ha. 

Orlaith went to Mister Starbucks store to do her homework. 

For her way far away in Galway university. Too bad for her. Maybe she will have a tasty treat. 

I helped Niamh and Cara and Lee in the kitchen.

Craig and Zita hid in the den. It was not so noisy there. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Four

Zita and I had a nice long walk in the full of sunshine day outside. 

After Orlaith and Doctor Della went to the buffalos building.

Craig was all awake when Zita went to the rascal ladies office. 

But I had a little sleep in. 

But I did not miss the toasts today. Ha. Good for me.

Then Craig and I looked out the watching window. All our bushes are full up with leaves. 

When we are on our beautiful patio nobody can see us. Ha. Good for us. But we can see them. 

Maybe we are ghosts. Ha. Good for us. 

When Emmet was all awake a pay for a ride car came to take him to his friends house. 

They are going play the very long time to play dragons game. And have tasty treats. Ha.

It is nice to have friends you like to play your games too. 

Miss Rima came over when Niamh was all awake. 

They went to Mister Starbucks too much money for coffee store. Niamh is writing an all about Rascals book. 

Last night Niamh went to the big rascals meeting at our Centre Building. 

She told us some of the Rascals did not know how to answer any questions. Not even one. 

They only knew how to yell too loud. And wave their arms all over. Like birds. Oh dear. 

Nobody should vote for them. 

Dogs cannot vote. Not even nice dogs like me. That is not right. 

I know lots and lots about rascals.

Because I lie under the dining room table every night. And listen to all the rascal stories. 

Lots of people do not vote. Oh dear that is very very silly. 

They cannot come to our house for tasty dinners. Craig said so. Ha. Too bad for them. 

Mister Lyndon and Miss Bruna have a big truck on their driveway.

Because they are going to have a make the house cool machine. Like ours.

So Lee and Cara will not just melt away in the way too hot. Ha. That is good. 

Craig is still a little sick. The make him better medicine makes him very tired. And not so hungry. Oh dear.

There are no clouds in the sky. Not even sheep clouds. 

My friends have chased them all away. Ha. Good for them. 

Miss Ginny and Miss Jennifer and Mister Greg and baby Miss Emma went to their not too far away cottage. 

But without Mister Bill. And everybody is sad. Even in all the sunshine. Oh dear. That is not so nice. 

But Mister Ollie and giant Mister Casey and little Mister Harley will mind them. Then they will not be so sad. It is known. 

Tonight is Niamh’s work until late. At the Center Building. 

Minding all the children. So they are polite. And not way too loud. Ha. 

I do not know if we will have an altogether dinner tonight. 

Sometimes it is a just us dinnertime. Oh well. 

Craig and I had a used hamburger for our lunch today. 

Maybe we used all my peanut butter. Maybe. I do not know. Oh well. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Three

Craig did not even have a sleep in today. 

I had a big sleep in instead. Ha. Good for me.

But I was fast asleep and Craig had to eat all the toasts by himself. Oh dear. Too bad for me.

Craig did not drive Niamh to her meeting today. 

Because he is still a bit too sick. And too sore to get in the silver little car. Oh dear. Too bad for him. 

So he had to take even more make you better medicine. 

We played catch the ball anyway. 

Miss Bruna drove her. In her brand new white not just a car. Ha. That was nice. 

Now they have two not just a car cars. 

When I was fast awake Craig and I looked out the watching window. You can do that even if you are a bit too sick. 

Then Emmet went to a tasty lunchtime restaurant with Professor Jill. To talk about other universities. Ha.

Professor Jill’s very little dog went too. But I was not invited. 

Because I am too big for the very little outside restaurant. Oh dear. Too bad for me.

So I stayed here to be Craig’s own minder nurse. 

Because he is still a bit too sick to be all just alone. It is my best job. 

It is a beautiful day outside today. With big sheep clouds everywhere. From all the way up in heaven. 

My friends Miss Maggie and Mister Shadow are there to chase them all over everywhere. Ha. Good for them. 

They are sheep chasing dogs. From Scotland. Ha. 

They make sure that the side yard is all sunny and the stones are warm for me. 

Because we are still friends. It is known. 

Mister Kirian is coming to our house to make his game with Emmet. 

And to have a tasty altogether dinner with us tonight. Ha. That is good. 

Everybody laughs a lot when Mister Kirian is here. That is good. 

We will use the outside stove and have tasty hamburgers and even chicken burgers too. 

For my friend Niamh. 

Last night Niamh and Orlaith made own made bigger than giant cookies for everybody. That was nice.

Maybe we will watch new detectives tonight. Maybe with chips. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Two

It is a very nice day outside today. Zita and I had a nice walk.

When we got home my friend Craig was all awake. He had a big sleep in.

Because he is still a bit too sick. 

Then we had toasts altogether. And looked out the watching window.

Our beautiful trees are all green as can be again. That is good. 

When Niamh was all awake she and Zita took lots of bicycles to the fix it all up bicycle store.

We can not find my friend stolen Mister Clifford anywhere. Oh dear. 

It still makes my friend Niamh very sad. Me too. That is not right.

So Miss Rima gave Niamh her father’s old fast bicycle. That was nice.

And Doctor Della lent Orlaith her old bicycle. So now they are at the fix it all up store. Ha.

I stayed here to mind Craig. All by myself.

Because he is still sick. And he is sore all over. 

You should not fall out of your go fast chair or you will get way way sore all over everywhere. 

Because you have to get all back in. It is known.

Emmet is at the comfy library at his old university. 

Some very interesting books came for him. From another university. That is nice. 

Now he has to read them. Ha. 

Craig has to get more medicine. Oh dear. The first one did not work so well. 

That is why he is still a bit too sick. Oh dear. I will stay with him. On the comfy rug in the den. 

Then we played catch the ball. But only a little.

Because of the way too sore. Oh dear. Too bad for him. 

We had an altogether dinner tonight too.

And Craig did not have to go fast asleep right away tonight.

So Craig and Zita and I watched some detectives. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Twenty One

We had a very busy night.

Craig was too sick to have his tasty dinner with Zita Emmet Orlaith and me. That is not so right.

Then Craig got way way too hot so Zita had to call doctor Susan. In the middle of the night. 

So then Zita had to put cold soggy towels all over him everywhere. Oh dear. 

And Zita turned the make the house cold machine on. To help him be not way too hot. Oh dear. 

I could not be a big help. So I had a nice nap.

Then this morning he fell right out of the go fast chair. 

Because he was so sick last night. Oh dear.

And I had a little sick tummy. I did not eat my breakfast. 

Because everything is not the same today.

I do not like it when things are not the same. Oh well. Too bad for me.

Then Craig gave me carrot treats in my breakfast. Then I ate it. Ha.

Zita did all her rascal ladies work on the dining room table. 

So she could help me if Craig got all sick again. 

He has to put a stick in his mouth all the time. So he will not be all too hot again.

I minded Emmet when Craig got back in the go fast chair. 

Craig had to get up on my steps in the bedroom. So he could get into the go fast chair again. Ha. Good for me. 

Then Emmet went to his old university to do some more writing. Now his story is a giant story. Ha.

Now Craig is very sore all over. So we only could play catch the ball a little.

That is what happens when you get way too hot sick. And fall down onto the floor. 

He just stayed in the den. Reading his new book all about some of our very fierce soldiers. 

In way way way far away Afghanistan. 

Craig and had a very little peanut butter toast and jam sandwich for our lunch. 

You cannot eat so much when you are sick. Oh well.

When Orlaith came home Zita and I went for little nice walk. 

Maybe we will have an altogether dinner tonight. Maybe.

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Twenty

I only have a short story today.

Craig is sick. All over. And he had to stay in the big bed. Oh dear. Oh dear. 

He was too hot. 

So he could not write my story very much today.

His nice doctor told him to take some medicine.

Zita went to the drugstore to get it for him.

And she stayed home to be his nurse. I helped. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Nineteen

It is the Happy day for mothers today.

We did not have tasty toasts after our nice walk. Too bad for me.

Because everybody went to the busy street restaurant to have a nearly lunch with Craig’s mother.

They gave her secret presents. 

I did not go. I stayed here to guard the house. All by myself. 

When everybody came home it was time for Zita’s secret presents. 

She got old bottles of wine. From far away. 

I do not know why we do not get new bottles. No nobody told me. We only get old bottles to drink. 

Sometimes very old bottles. Older than me. That is silly. 

And Zita got a dangerous giant wale picture that Niamh painted all by herself. 

And Emmet got her a brand new for making pancakes pan. 

Because the old one is all sticks to everything now. Oh dear.

Then Zita and Niamh and Orlaith went to the brand new paint store. 

To make the white paint not so white. And Emmet went for his nice walk in the beautiful sunshine. 

Maybe he will look at all the beautiful beside the canal flowers too. Maybe. 

I had a nice nap in the afternoon sunshine. In my side yard. Ha. Good for me.

Tomorrow is the just for Mother’s Day. We will have even more secret presents. Ha. 

There are cars everywhere on our streets.

Because it is all the beautiful flowers beside the canal time. 

A way far away Queen gives us the flowers. 

Because we guarded her family in Craig’s father’s sad war. Right here in our city. Good for us. 

It is good to guard your friends. I guard my family all the time. It is known. 

So now everybody comes to our city to look at the beautiful flowers. And leave their cars all over. 

And get all lost. Oh well.

Our own beautiful flowers are here too. 

Soon we will have even more. Good for us. 

Zita went to the make you beautiful store at lunchtime. Now her hair is not as furry as mine. Oh well. 

After lunchtime everybody came back to our house to do more painting. I could not help.

Because there were already enough helpers. There was no room for me to be a big help.

So I had a big nap outside on the warm from the sunshine stones. Ha. That is good.

Maybe we will watch more detectives tonight. Maybe. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Seventeen

I had a very quiet day today.

We had a muffin for our not so tasty breakfast. Oh well too bad for me.

Emmet went to his old university today. To write a new story for the interesting game company. 

It is not the big story for his far away university. 

It is a new story about other way old Gods.

And when Niamh was all fast awake she went to Mister Starbucks to write all about the rascals. 

I had a nice nap and I got cheesie treats for my breakfast.

Then Craig and Mister Paul went out to do some errands.

And to get my big bag of my own just for tummies food from my nice doctor’s office. That is good. 

When Craig was home cousin Orlaith left. To go to Mister Starbucks store.

So only Craig and Zita and Emmet and I will have Mister Kettleman’s tasty bagel sandwiches for our dinner tonight. Ha.

It is a soggy day outside today. And way windy too. 

Zita and I finished our before breakfast walk before the windy rain found us. 

So we were only just a bit soggy. Ha.

Then Zita went to the rascal ladies office.

Craig and did not have toasts today. We had fat muffins. Ha. But I like crunchy toasty more. Oh well.

It is not so nice if everybody is too smelly.

Craig and Zita went for a long after dinner walk last night. 

Then Niamh and Orlaith went for a walk to Niamh’s Starbucks too much money for coffee store. 

I stayed here to guard my friend Emmet. He was talking to his friends from all over everywhere. 

So I had a nice nap and guarded the back door.

We are going to have brand new beautiful rugs in the basement. Not in Niamh’s bedroom.

Because she wants lovey comfy for your feet all full of colours rugs. 

And not in Emmet’s bedroom. Because he does not want rugs. I do not know why. 

Now we have clean the basement floors spic and span. 

They are very messy because of Mister Mitch’s work. Oh dear. 

All our front garden beautiful flowers are nearly here. Soon we will have flowers everywhere. 

Because of the lots of rain. 

Emmet had to wear his keep you dry for ever rain coat when he went to the nice university.

To write even more of his stories all about the way way old Gods. But only the ones from Ireland. 

Zita found a very very old all broken bench. For our patio. In somebody’s garbage. Ha. Now it is ours.

But we have to fix it all up. Until it is all beautiful again. 

Craig and I had a toasty sausage sandwich for our lunch. With cheese too. Ha. That is a good lunch.

That is very far away. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Fifteen

I had a very busy day today.

Last night the make lots of hot water machine stopped making hot water. 

It made a mess instead. Oh dear.

Then we did not have any hot water. So nobody was squeaky clean last night. Only a bit too smelly. Oh dear. 

So a fix it man had to come to my house this morning. He had to take the old broken machine away. 

And then he brought us a brand new make hot water machine. 

It took a long time. But he was not way too noisy. 

But he could not remember Zita’s name. 

He could only remember to call her She. That is silly. 

When he was in the basement the save us, save us machine made its own very loud noises. I do not know why. 

Zita and I had a very nice walk this morning. Before the man came.

Then she was in the other side yard. Making it almost beautiful. 

I had to stay inside to guard the house. I do not know the hot water machine man. 

So I guarded Craig and Niamh. Ha. Good for me. 

I sat at the top of the stairs. Guarding. It is my best job. 

I guarded our house last night too. 

Because everybody was too tired for tasty cooking. 

So Craig and Zita and Emmet and Orlaith went to a nice restaurant up past our busy street. 

I got a peanut butter treat. 

When they got all safe home they had more of Zita’s Sing Happy Birthday cake. 

I had a nice nap. On the comfy rug. With everybody. Ha. That is all right. 

After lunchtime we had lots of brand new hot water. Ha. Good for us.

Then Craig went to the neat and tidy store to get a haircut. Because he was way too furry. Ha.

And Zita and Niamh went to the brand new floor store. To find new different not for too much money floors. 

I guarded the house all by myself. Ha. Good for me.

We had a little just for us party last night.

Because it was my friend Zita’s Sing Happy Birthday day party. Ha. Good for us.

Cousin Orlaith made tasty flat pasta. And meatballs. Ha.

And we had presents. Lots of presents.

Emmet and Niamh and Orlaith gave Zita a beautiful keep everything in it bag. With a long strap. 

And it had chocolate bars inside. And lots of special beer too. 

Because it is nearly summertime. You can only drink beer in the hot outside summertime. It is known.Ha.

I gave Zita a secret present too. Two big bottles of something to make your salads very tasty. 

One bottle was very old. I do not know why. Craig found it for me. That was nice.

Craig gave her a box full up to the top with special all different chocolate bars. Just for Zita.

From the too much money for food store. 

And another bottle of Scotsman’s scotch. It was very old too. 

Maybe they do not know how to make it any more. Maybe. 

And we had the just for birthdays all on fire cake.

Then everybody had it for our own tasty dessert. 

I was a big help. 

Because sometimes pieces of cake might just fall on to the floor.

I find them before they make a mess. That is my favourite job. Ha. Good for me. 

My friend Emmet always thanks me for being a big help.

That is nice. It is good to have nice friends. It is known.

This morning Zita and I went for a fast walking walk. In the beautiful good morning. 

Then we found Miss Bethany. She does not walk so fast. Oh well.

Miss Devon came today. To make the house all clean. 

Because it is very dusty everywhere. Mister Mitch makes lots of dust. Oh well. Too bad for us.

Our kitchen is all finished. With bright lights everywhere in the ceiling. Ha.

This morning Emmet went to his old university. To write some more. 

And maybe have a tasty lunch there too. 

Craig saw Miss Francis yesterday. She is retiring from our nice university. Oh dear. 

Who will keep the beautiful library all full of lots and lots of interesting books now. Oh dear. That is not right. 

Niamh went to her at the Centre Building job early today. 

Because of Miss Devon’s noisy machines. 

Craig and I just hide in the den. But it is still noisy. 

I cannot go and hide downstairs. 

Because Mister Mitch is only nearly finished downstairs. Not all finished. Too bad for me. 

We will not have an altogether dinner tonight. 

Because Niamh is having dinner at Miss Rima’s apartment. Today is Miss Rima’s Sing Happy Birthday day. Ha.

Mister Mitch and his father came to visit us. Before dinnertime. To make more noise in the basement. 

When Emmet came home from the nice university he went for his all by himself walk. To get his when it is hot outside drink.

So I had a nice nap too. Ha. Good for me. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Thirteen

It was a busy day at our house today.

Because it is my friend Zita’s Sing Happy Birthday day. Ha. Good for her. 

But after our walk she had to go to the rascal ladies office anyway. That is not so right.

We have a Rascals sign on my front yard.

Because Craig’s friend is a rascal. And it is everybody vote for Rascals time again. Ha. 

Some people do not even vote. Oh dear. That is silly. 

My friend Emmet went to his old university again. As soon as he was all awake. 

To his comfy in the library chair. 

Because he has to make his chop up long time ago Irish people with a sword story even bigger. 

Because his new university wants him to go to a very important meeting.

In way far away Wales and tell his story to everybody. So they will know things they do not know. 

Only Emmet knows them. Ha. 

Craig and Paul went out today. They did not go to the not so much money for breakfast store. I do not know why.

They went to a giant hardware store. To get fix it up stuff for Paul’s other house. 

And Craig got a brand new save us, save us machine for the basement. It even talks to you. That is silly. 

When cousin Orlaith came home Craig had to go to get another secret present for Zita. Ha.

I already have my secret present. Good for me. 

Niamh went to the Centre Building after lunchtime. For her before dinner job.

I guarded the house all by myself. Ha. It is my own job. 

I looked out the watching window. We have leaves on all our bushes. And our trees too. Ha. That is good.

Everybody is going to give Zita her secret presents at dinnertime. Me too. 

Maybe we will have the delicious in the refrigerator cake too. Maybe it will be on fire. Maybe. 

Before cousin Orlaith came home Mister Mitch’s father came to make Niamh’s new bedroom more beautiful. That is nice.

Some toasts were too toasty and the save us, save us machine was very loud. Oh well. We ate them anyway. 

It is a very beautiful day outside today. With sunshine everywhere.

We had own made pancakes for our altogether lunch today. And bacon too. Ha. 

Then Zita and Orlaith made the side yard spic and span with the scary blowing everything everywhere machine. 

I could not help.

Because I just bark at the scary machine. So I had to mind Craig in the den. Oh well. Too bad for me.

Then Zita and Orlaith made all the giant front windows as clean as could be. My watching window too. 

But I could not help. I was a too much barking dog. I got in trouble again. Oh well. Too bad for me. Ha. 

After lunchtime Niamh and Miss Rima and Miss Taryn made lots and lots of treats. 

To take to their big Centre Building meeting.

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Eleven

It is Craig’s Saturday go to the old friends breakfast restaurant day today. 

But Zita and I did not take him. Only Mister Paul.

Because I had to stay here with Zita until Mister Mitch’s father came to do more painting. In the basement. 

Ha. Good for me.

But when Craig and Mister Paul got to the restaurant it was broken. 

The restaurant could not make any too much coffee. Or tasty sausage sandwiches. 

Because they did not have any water at all. Oh dear.

So everybody went to the other very little restaurant and had very skinny pancakes. Ha.

Emmet and Niamh and Orlaith went to find Emmet new clothes. Ha. Up on the busy street.

Then Zita went to make your garden beautiful store. 

Zita had a get it for free present. Ha. That is a good present.

It is nearly Zita’s Sing Happy Birthday day. 

I got her a secret present. Craig found it for me. Ha. That is good.

I cannot tell you what it is. It is a secret present. Ha. We hid it in the den. 

So Zita will not know I got her my own secret present. Ha. That is good. 

I did not have to give him any real money. He is going to put it on my bill. Ha. That is good. 

It is a beautiful day outside today. Zita and I had a very nice walk. 

There were things all over the streets. Even very big signs. And pieces of people’s roofs. 

Because of the very windy wind last night. Oh dear. 

It is not a fierce windy day today. That is good. 

Zita and I went to see my friends the ducks when we went for our nice before dinner walk. That was nice. 

Zita and Niamh and Orlaith got lots of beautiful clothes last night. At the Centre Building. 

For nearly no money at all. Ha. 

Niamh and Orlaith are going to make own made pizza tonight. Just for us. 

Maybe we will watch new detectives tonight. Maybe. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Ten

It is another soggy day outside today.

I did not have a sleep in today. 

Craig and had had our fat toasts and looked out the watching window at the windy rain.

When Emmet got up he went to Mister Kettleman’s bagel store. 

To get his brand new for breakfast bagels. Ha. 

The bagels at the nice university are not so very brand new and nice and toasty. 

So then he went to the nice university. With his bagels. 

To do some more reading in the very comfy chairs in the library. 

When Niamh got up it was already lunchtime. Ha. 

So she went to the Centre Building. For her after lunchtime job.

Tonight Zita and Orlaith are going to the beautiful dresses show at the Centre Building. They are helpers.

Niamh is a beautiful dress wearer. 

Mister Mitch’s father came after lunchtime to paint lots more of Niamh’s brand new bedroom. 

I stayed upstairs to mind Craig. There is no sticky paint upstairs. Ha. Good for us. 

My tummy is all better today. It was all better last night too. 

But I did not get any special treats. When we watched the television. Oh well.

It is not very nice outside today. It is very very windy outside. And there sometimes rain too. 

And maybe even very loud thunder. Oh dear. I do not like thunder so much. 

 

So we only played catch the ball a few times. 

The present man brought a present for Mister Tom. 

Because he brings us all the from very far away detectives. To watch on the television in the the den. 

The old television is in the basement for Niamh and cousin Orlaith. 

And there is even another television for Emmet’s other computer. 

So he can watch lots of things at the same time. Ha. That is silly. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Nine

I had a very quiet day today.

Because it is a soggy day outside and I had a little sick tummy too.

So I had a nice long nap. I did not even help Craig eat his good morning toasts. Oh well.

Then Craig took Niamh to her important meeting. I stayed here to guard Emmet.

The new floor in the basement men came at lunchtime to look at Niamh’s brand new bedroom.

When Craig came home Emmet went to the nice university. To write even more interesting stories.

Then Mister Mitch’s father came to make the kitchen ceiling beautiful too. 

I went into the living room to mind Craig. On the comfy rug. Ha. 

Sick tummies make you very tired. It is known.

My pond is all full up to the top. That is good. 

Craig and I stayed in the living room. Because the kitchen was full of wet paint. 

You cannot have nice naps on your comfy kitchen bed when there is wet paint everywhere. 

When cousin Orlaith came home she had her nap on the big bed. In Craig and Zita and my room.

Because there was nobody painting anything there. 

I had a nap in front of the door so I could mind Orlaith and Craig at the same time.

Because Craig was just reading in the den. Ha. Good for me. 

Then Craig and looked out my watching window. At the too many cars. And all the soggy people. Ha. Too bad for them. 

Tomorrow night Niamh is going to wear lot and lots of very very old beautiful clothes at the Centre Building.

So everybody can see them and buy all of them. For real money. Ha. 

Zita is going to be a helper. I cannot be a helper. There will be too many people there.

Somebody might step on me. I would not like that.

I will stay here and mind Craig and Emmet. Ha good for me. 

Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Eight

I had a nice quiet day today.

Craig and Zita and I had our very own toasts together today. Ha.

Because today is Zita’s do not go to work day. That is good. 

We looked out my watching window. The empty pond is not all empty anymore. 

Because all the beautiful flowers are here. Ha. 

Tonight it will full up to the top. That is good. All my friends the ducks will be here soon. 

When we were finished Zita went outside. To clean the garden up.

Winters make gardens very messy. 

I could not help. Sometimes dogs are not such good beautiful garden helpers. I do not know why.

I am a very fast digger. It is known. Oh well.

So I minded Craig instead. He had to find more interesting stories for our nice Queen. 

Then Emmet went to the nice university. To read something interesting for his maybe in a book very interesting story.

When Zita was outside she talked to Professor Alec. 

She wants to talk to Emmet all about how to find his next university. That is nice.

Emmet will take her to a nice restaurant. And have tea and tasty treats. 

That is what you do with your friends. It is known.

Then Niamh was all awake too. So she had a squeaky clean bath. 

She talked to Miss Zoé on the telephone. In the bathroom. That is silly.

Miss Zoé is still at her way far away university. Beside the giant mountains. 

She is not going to come home. 

Because she has to play games for her own university. I do not know why. Oh well. 

Zita and Niamh had to go and find the most beautiful paint. For her brand new bedroom. 

Then Niamh had to go to teach toe dancing to the little children at the Centre Building. 

Our street is too full of cars. Because of the very big hole in the road street. 

In a little while cousin Orlaith is going to see all the beautiful police horses. 

They have their very own horse houses. Ha. That is good.

Craig and Zita and I went for our before dinnertime walk. Together.

We saw Mister Tobin. He took my picture. Ha.

Then we went to our first pond. 

My friends the ducks were already there. Only some. Not all of them. 

We got home before all the rain came. So we were not even a bit soggy. 

When we got home Mister Mitch came to visit. To go to work in the basement. Ha. That is good. 

We did not watch anything last night. Everybody was too tired.
