Day Two Thousand One Hundred and Sixty One

It is sleep in Sunday today. But Zita did not have a sleep in. 

Because she wanted to talk to her mother and father. In way far away Dublin. On the telephone. 

They were just in the house. 

Not in their beautiful very long garden. With the when Zita was a little girl go very high in the air swing. 

Because it was not morning time there. 

Because they have different clocks in all the way far away places. I do not know why. 

So I had a sleep in with Craig. Ha. Good for us.

It is a beautiful day outside today. It is not too hot today and there is no windy rain to make us all soggy. That is good.

But this morning my friend Niamh is too hot. 

Because she has a sore throat. And a sick tummy. Zita had to give her the make you not too hot medicine. 

Now she cannot go to work today. Oh dear. She has to stay in her bed and be fast asleep all day. 

That is how you get all better. It is known. 

Craig says Niamh is sick because she is way too busy all the time. That is true. 

If you are always way too busy you will just get sick. 

Then you cannot be even a little bit busy. Too bad for her.

We had lots and lots of our own made pizzas last night. Downstairs in Emmet’s big bedroom.

Because it was the time to play the dragons game. 

I minded everybody. Right on top of Emmet’s comfy pillows. Ha. Good for me.

Zita says I am the best party dog in the world. That is true. Ha. Good for me. 

They played the game for a long time. Even when all the pizzas were gone.

So then I minded Craig and Zita in the den. Until our bedtime. That is a good job. 

We did not have chips. Oh well. I had pizza bits in Emmet’s room. Ha. 

Niamh is going to teach little children how to play the dragons game in the summertime. 

At the Center Building. For real money. Ha. 

Emmet used to teach the game there. 

But now he is way too busy writing new stories for his far away university. 

And for the play games on your computer company. And teaching people all about the way old Gods too. 

He is very busy. It is known. But he has lots of nice sleep ins too. 

So he is not get sick too busy. Good for him. 

This morning Zita and cousin Orlaith made old bananas muffins for our tasty lunchtime. Ha. Good for us.

And Zita cleaned the side yard with the very loud blow everything away machine. I could not help. 

I had to stay in the house to mind our cousin Orlaith. And help with the tasty banana muffins instead. 

When Emmet came upstairs to get some tasty muffins Zita told him he could not have a big glass of icy coke for his breakfast drink. 

Or he would get sick just like Niamh. Oh dear. Too bad for him. 

So he had tasty good for you milk instead. 

I helped Craig eat his muffins. Good for me. 

After lunchtime Zita took Craig’s mother for a little walk to the too expensive food store. 

To get some tasty treats. And look at all the people. 

This afternoon I helped cousin Orlaith with her homework. On the comfy rug in the living room. 

She is studying in the full of comfy chairs room. Ha. That is a good room. 

It used to be Niamh’s bedroom. Now it is not. 

Maybe we will watch new detectives tonight on the television. Maybe with chips.
