Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Forty Six

Tomorrow will be a brand new year. Oh my goodness me.

So we have to get everything ready for this year to go and retire to somewhere nice and quiet. 

Before the brand new year comes to visit us. Oh my goodness me.

So we were very busy this morning.

Zita and I went for a very nice long walk. It was not even so cold today.

And after our breakfast Niamh and Tarryn were all fast awake too.

Miss Tarryn stayed here last night.

Because she did not want to go home to her all empty apartment. 

And then Zita had to go downtown to the old rascal ladies office to get some important pieces of paper. 

But there was no one at all downtown. 

Maybe everyone is putting their old year away too. Ha.

Craig had a sleep in so he could listen to his all about words book. 

And Emmet was downstairs all morning talking to Miss Alice in way far away Ireland. 

She is not working today. She is having a relax with her mother and father. 

Niamh went into Emmet’s room and said hello to Miss Alice. And she said hello right back. Ha.

But Then I was very very busy helping Niamh and Tarryn fix the all broken picture. 



That is a very hard job for me.


Because I have to be very very careful where I put my feet. Oh my goodness me.

I also looked out my watching window too. So I could mind everything. 

Zita talked to auntie Eileen in way far away Celbridge. 

She does not have any snow at all. Too bad for her. 

Zita got some very old from Scotland whiskey from the Mahoneys.  It was a secret present.





That was a good present because tonight the Hogmanay for Scotsmen. Ha. 

But Colonel Dugal and his nephews Mister Furrgus and Mister Festis did not have any whiskey at all.





Because of the do not go out and get sick and die rules. Oh my goodness.

You cannot have a happy Hogmanay if you cannot share your very best whiskey with all your friends. It is the rule. 

But Zita had some extra. 



All hidden away in the scary basement. Ha. 

So now they can have their very own Hogmanay and not be very sad. That is good.

But Zita told them not to have too much. 

Because if they had too much they might start playing their bagpipes. 

And scare everybody. Oh my goodness me. That is a good rule.

Before dinnertime Zita was just laughing all the time with our friend Kathy on her telephone.

And I was her very best minder. 



We had cooked outside hamburgers for our altogether dinner tonight.

Because it is not so cold outside this afternoon. 

After our dinnertime Niamh and Tarryn went to Tarryn’s apartment to watch old movies with Miss Anna.

Craig and Zita and I watched a brand new detective program.

And tomorrow when we wake up everything will be brand new again. Ha.

Except for me. 

Because I am always Miss Poppy the very best dog ever. Zita told me. 

So it is true. 






Thursday 30 December 2021

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Forty Five

Today was a day for a nice relax.

Craig and Niamh had nice sleep ins when Zita and I went for our long walk all over.

I had to get all dressed up.

And I had to wear two kinds of boots. 

My rubber boots on my front feet and my keep you warm boots and my back feet.

My back feet get a bit too cold.

Because I do not have so many toes anymore. Oh well.

After we were home and were all toasty warm again Zita and Niamh went to the busy street.

To the fast bicycle store. 



To get a brand new very fast bicycle. 

Niamh got some real money from Craig and Zita and Craig’s mother for a brand new bicycle. 

It was a Merry Christmas present.

But you have to buy new bicycles right now.

Because later they will be all gone again. Oh dear.

So they got one right away. And I saw it right away. 



And it even has its very own name. Ha.

It is Miss Faux. And she is red. Just like my friend Niamh. 

And she has very special go very fast tires.



But it is not a ride in the nasty snow bicycle. 

Because if you ride your bicycle in the winter maybe you will get squished. Oh my goodness me. 

So it is going to live in the no snow at all basement.

Until the snow is all very gone. That is a good idea. 

When they were gone I minded Emmet while he was writing more of his important story. 



Sometimes he reads the story to me. But sometimes I do not understand even anything. 

Because sometimes it is in very very old Irish. 

And nobody can even talk it anymore. 

Just Emmet and his friends. That is very silly. 

This afternoon I minded Zita and Niamh when they had a relax in the living. 

You always have to have a lot of relax after Merry Christmas time. It is our rule. 

Having a nice relax is an easy job for me. Ha. 

There was only Craig and Zita for me keep company at dinnertime tonight.

Because Emmet was playing his dragons game.

And Niamh and Tarryn ate too many tasty snacks.

So they have to make their own dinner when they are not just full up. 

Then Craig and Zita and I watched the detective program. 








Wednesday 29 December 2021

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Forty Four

It was a get up early for everyone today.

Because it was a very busy day today. Oh dear.

And when I went into my side yard it was not so very cold. 



Then nice Nurse Jesse came to our house and put brand new bandages on Craig’s feet.

And Niamh was up early too.

Because it was a back to work day at her lovely store. 

And after Nurse Jesse was gone Zita drove Niamh to her work and then went to do important errands.

So I stayed right here so I could mind Craig and Emmet.

Emmet did not have a sleep in either.

Because was writing some more of his important story. Oh my goodness me. 

Emmet was sitting in the very comfy chair. Right in the living room. 

Emmet is going to have a very long story when it is all finished. Oh my goodness gracious me.

So I stayed there so I could be the best minder and have my morning nap at the same time. 

I am always very tired after going to our make me beautiful store.

Even when it is in my own house. Oh well. 

Zita and I did not go for our before breakfast walk today.

Because we were way too busy. 

And after she came home from her errands she had to go to the grocery store. 

Before they were all too full of people. 

And when she was all back home it was just in time for our before dinner walk.

And it was in the very dark outside. Oh well.

And I had to get all dressed up. With my boots and my warm red jacket. Oh well.

It was a very nice walk anyway. 

And we did not see any smelly skunks or dangerous wolves hiding in the bushes. That was good.

And when we got home I was a cold soggy dog. Too bad for us. 




Tuesday 28 December 2021

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Forty Three

I had a very very busy day today.

Zita and I went for a very long everywhere walk. And it was snowing. But only a very little.

So we did not mind it. 

And then we had our together breakfast and looked out the windows at the whole world. 

Craig and Emmet and Niamh had a nice sleep ins.

But when everybody was all awake and dressed I had a surprise.

It was my day to go to our own make me beautiful store. Right in our bathroom.

And Zita and Niamh were the make me beautiful people. Oh my goodness me.

But it took a very long time. 

Because I was very very furry. Oh my goodness me. 

But we stopped lots of times.

So I could have a little rest and I could have some of my very tasty treats. 

The treats that the Mahoneys got me for Christmas time. Ha. Good for us. 

And one time Craig and I had tasty toasts with brand new Christmas time raspberries jam. Ha. 

But then I had to have a squeaky clean bath. With some very smelly shampoo. 

But now I smell just like a beautiful flower. Ha. 

And Zita used the hot blowing machine to get me all dry. Goodness me. 

That is my very favourite machine.

I just sit there as still as can be until I am all dry. Ha.



That is a very good machine.

Craig got in his new even faster go fast chair today. 

To make sure it was a fixed up just right for him. Ha.

But he had to have the very hot water bottle.

Because someone pulled his shoulder when he was not looking. Oh my goodness. 

I do not know who. Nobody is here but us. 

Maybe it was a ghost. Oh goodness me. 

Emmet went for a lovely walk when I was having my squeaky clean bath.



It is not so cold today.

Because it was a full of lovely sunshine day all afternoon.



Niamh had a squeaky clean shower after I had my own bath. 

Tomorrow they are going to make my beard and my floppy ears all neat and tidy too.

But we were too tired for that today. 

When Emmet got home he took my picture. 



So in way far away Ireland Miss Alice can see how very beautiful I am now. That was a good idea. 

This afternoon Niamh went to visit Lee and Cara. Miss Lily was there too. 

Because I was at the make me beautiful place for a very long time I did not have my lunchtime until late.

But Craig found some of our party cheese for on top of my lunch. Ha. That was tasty. 

So I did not starve so very much. That was good. 

The present man brought Zita a secret present. 




It was a just a bit late Merry Christmas present from Craig. Oh well. 

It was book. A mystery book. Ha. Those are our favourite books. 

Before our dinnertime Zita moved lots of our too much snow and talked to people when they walked down the street.

I had to stay in the house to mind Craig. Oh well. 

We had another lovely all together dinner tonight. 

We made our favourite very own pizzas. All by ourselves. Ha. 

Then it was time to watch our detective program before we went to our comfy bed. Ha.





Monday 27 December 2021

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Forty Two

We had a sleep in Monday today.

Because yesterday we were way too busy to have a sleep in Sunday.

We had our another Christmas time last night. 

And we had lots and lots of very very tasty cheeses for everybody. 

There was even some toasty hot cheese. Oh my goodness me. 

And then it was time for our another Christmas dinner.

But there was so much dinner we had to stop for a while and open all our secret presents. 

I even got delicious treats from all the Mahoneys. That was a very nice surprise.

Then we went back to the dining room for even more food.

Because it was time for the very delicious special ham. And wine too. 

And two kinds of just at Merry Christmas time desserts. With whipped up cream too. 

That is a good dessert. 

Then I had a very nice nap.

Because it was very tiring minding a whole Merry Christmas time party all by myself. It is known.

When everybody went home Niamh and Tara went for a good night to everybody all around walk. 

But Craig and Zita and Emmet and I went to bed. 

So we did not get up even a bit early. 

But I was busy anyway. 

Because I was minding Zita and Niamh in the living room all morning..

Zita was reading her brand new book. A man wrote a story all about his family. 



And all his very favourite from far away Italy food. 

That is a tasty book. 

And Niamh was on the sofa all covered up on her brand new extra warm furry blanket.



So now she will not have to steal Emmet’s favourite comfy blanket. That is a good idea.

And my friend Emmet was downstairs in his big comfy bedroom. 

He was writing more of his very interesting giant story. 

For his far away in Ireland university. Oh my goodness me. 

And man came to our house with a box. 

But it was not a secret present. It was make sure you are not all sick sticks.

From Zita’s brother Uncle Ciarán. 

He sent them to us from way far away Ireland. Ha. That was good. 

Because we did not have enough here. Oh my goodness me.

Then Craig got me my lunch with pumpkins on it. Ha.

So I could I go back to minding Zita and Niamh.
-
Today was a day for a nice relax for everyone. 

Before dinnertime Zita and I went for our together walk. With Professor Jill too. 

I told her Craig and I ate all the donuts. But she did not mind. Ha.

When I got home  I had to stay in the kitchen for a while. 

So Craig made us toasts with soft cheese on top. Ha. 

Then Zita went for longer walk with Professor Jill. 

I went into the living room and had a nap. 

But I looked out my watching window too. 

We had an early for everybody dinner tonight. 

With lots of delicious used food. From our party. Ha. 

So I stayed in the kitchen. On my comfy rug.



Just in case Zita needed my help.

Maybe we will watch the detective program tonight. Maybe Craig will have hot chocolate. Ha.

He always has hot chocolate when we watch the detectives. 

Zita sometimes has chocolates. Ha. 


Sunday 26 December 2021

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Forty One

We had a little sleep in before Zita and I went for a very long all over walk.

Emmet and Niamh only had a little sleep in but Craig had a very big sleep in. 

Because he had a sore tummy.

Because he ate way too many tasty treats yesterday. Too bad for him.

But then I could not have my breakfast this morning. 

Because I always have toasts with Craig before my breakfast.

But he was fast asleep. Too bad for me.

Zita talked to everybody in Dublin. Even cousin Orlaith. Ha. That was good.

Emmet talked to Miss Alice too. 

She was very busy for the whole Merry Christmas time. Even until nighttime. Too bad for her. 

But now she is back home in Cork for a little relax. That is good. 

And Zita got the very big and very tasty ham all ready for the oven. 

For our tonight’s next special Christmas time dinnertime. 

Then I minded Niamh when she was painting a brand new beautiful picture. 

With her new Merry Christmas time presents.

After Zita and Niamh got the house all neat and tidy.

Because tonight we will have our another Merry Christmas with all the Mahoneys. 

Except Taylor will not be here. 

Because he had to visit his mother and his father in different places. Oh dear. Too bad for him.

When Craig was all dressed he found some tasty cheese so I had my breakfast and lunch at the same time. Ha.

Then Craig and I had professor Jill’s donuts. And we ate them all. Ha. That was a good lunchtime. 

After lunchtime Zita had to go to the busy street to find some potatoes. For our special dinnertime. 

Because we ate so many last night we did not have enough for tonight. Oh me goodness. 

This afternoon Craig was just watching some not so very interesting football games. In the den.

They should not have football games at Merry Christmas time. It is known.

It is not so cold outside today. That is good. 


So everything is a bit messy outside. Oh well.

But we can just stay in our comfy warm house. 

And have lots of our extra food to eat. Ha. Good for us. 

And even more delicious cheeses too. 

And even more presents for everybody. Ha. 

Our another Christmas Day is the best day. 

We cannot watch any of our detective programs tonight.

Because of the party. Ha. 



Saturday 25 December 2021

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Forty

Today was Merry Christmas Day. 

So we only had a little sleep in.

Because we had to open all the secret presents. Ha. That is my favourite job. 

When Craig was getting fast awake Zita and Emmet and Niamh made the Christmas morning croissants.



And I guarded the full of secret presents Merry Christmas tree. Ha. 


That is a very important job. It is my best job.



Then everybody came into the living room to open all the secret presents.

But first everybody looked into the giant socks to see what Mister Saint Santa left for everybody. 

And everybody got lots of tasty treats. 

And books full of pictures. Those are my favourite books.

Niamh got lots and lots of brand new things so she can paint more beautiful pictures. 

And a very beautiful coat from our cheese party friends. Ha. That was a good present. 



And the cheese party friends gave some lovely animals for a nice family’s far away farm. 

Because they did not even have goats or cows. Just some grass. Oh my goodness me. 

And the animals were from Emmet and Niamh. That was a very good present. 

Emmet got even more books about long long time ago Ireland. 





But now Emmet has no more places to put his books. Oh dear. 

Craig and Zita got Emmet T-shirts with pictures about long long time ago books in Wales. Ha. 



And he got a keep you toasty warm and very dry jacket from our cheese party friends. 

It is an especially good for Ireland jacket. Ha. 

I got secret presents too. Just for me. And they were in a beautiful bag. Ha.


Niamh found some brand new run around shoes for Zita. So Craig gave them to her.

And bottles of very very old oil for delicious salads. Ha. 

And the giant present was for Zita too. It was a take away our weeds machine. Oh my goodness me. 

I do not think that is such a good Merry Christmas present. Too bad for Zita. 

Miss Alice got Emmet an as beautiful as could be necklace. And it looked like it was very very old from Ireland.



But it was brand new. And it was made by an friend of Miss Alice’s own family. Ha.

And Niamh helped Emmet put it on. 

Niamh got a comfy fuzzy shirt. It was a Scotsman’s shirt. 

From the black watching soldiers. 





And she got the same kind of Scotsman’s underwear. 

But it is for boys. And Niamh wears them anyway. Oh my goodness me. 

And Emmet got Niamh a brand new plant for her bedroom forest. 

And Niamh got Craig his very own very big plant too. Just for him. 

And he said it is Bruce the plant. Ha. That is a good name.

And Emmet dragons game friends got us a present too. 

Chocolate hedgehogs. Oh my goodness me. 

And especially delicious hot chocolate. Ha.

Now we very tasty presents for everybody. 

And then I saw everybody in way far away Ireland. 

Right on Zita’s telephone. Even lots of the cousins. 

So we said Merry Christmas time to everybody there. Ha.

But then when we finished opening everything I was very tired.

And everybody was somewhere else. Being busy. 

So Craig found me my lunch and I had a very lovely nap. 

When I woke all up Zita and Niamh were there. 

They were making our especially delicious Merry Christmas time dinner. 

So I helped them.

Being the very best kitchen helper is my best favourite job. 

We made the very delicious flat meat all filled up with cheese and some ham too. Ha. 

That is a good dinnertime.

Then Emmet went downstairs to talk to friends.

And Niamh went to Lee and Cara’s house.

So Craig and Zita and I had time to watch a detective program before it was our bedtime. 

We had a very nice Merry Christmas time. All day long.

And tomorrow we will have our another Christmas with all the Mahoneys. Ha. That is a good day .





Friday 24 December 2021

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Thirty Nine

We all got up very early today.

Because this is a very very busy day.

Because tomorrow is the Merry Christmas Day. Ha.

So when Emmet and Niamh were wrapping their secret presents Zita went to our delicious meat store. 

And she came back with a giant ham. For our second Merry Christmas dinner. 

I was up very early too.

And Craig only had a little sleep in. 

And after breakfast Zita made the famous very delicious special dessert for tonight.

Because today we have our nearly Merry Christmas Day party.

But this year it is a very very small party. 

Only a few of Niamh’s lady friends will be here. 

Because nobody wants anybody to get all too very sick.

But we are going to have lots of very very tasty cheeses anyway.

I saw them in the refrigerator. Ha.

It was a bit very cold outside this morning. 

So when I looked outside I nearly got a frozen up nose. Oh my goodness me.




When Craig and I were looking out my watching window we saw lots of people.

And they had hockey sticks.

Because they were going to play hockey. 



Right on our other all frozen up pond. Ha.

Last night Niamh’s friends made very beautiful very little Merry Christmas time houses.



I helped. Until lots of little things fell on the floor. 

And then Niamh had to find the noisy make the floor empty machine. 

So I went into the big bedroom and went to fast asleep. Ha.

This morning everybody talked to Nana and Grandad in way far away Dublin. 

To say have a Merry Christmas time and with all the cousins too. 

Then I minded Niamh when she was painting a beautiful picture. Maybe it was a present. Maybe 


I had my breakfast so early I nearly all starved away when it was lunchtime. 

So Craig had to give me even some extra lunch. Ha. 

After lunchtime Zita went up the street to visit Craig’s mother. 

And bring her some very tasty chocolates too. 

But she did not remember it was Merry Christmas time. Oh dear me. That is not so good. 

When Zita was visiting I took my friend Niamh for a nice all over walk. 



Until we got too cold. 

Then we came home to get toasty warm again. 

So then it was time for my afternoon nap. 



But just like that I had to be fast awake.

Because we nearly forgot to put up all the stockings for Mister Saint Santa to fill all up. 



Oh my goodness me. 

So we put them up right away. 

Even all the little ones for our all stuffed animals friends. Ha. 

Even for the two very nice dragons too. They do not eat people. 

They only gobble up nasty pirates. Craig told me so. Ha.

It is Merry Christmas for them too.That is good. 

And we nearly forget to put back our very beautiful outside decorations too.

So Zita found them and I watched from my watching window.



To make sure they were safe.

I had a very busy day today. 

Before dinnertime Zita made molasses cookies. Just for Craig and me. Ha.

That is why Merry Christmas time is my favourite. There are tasty treats everywhere. Ha. 

Craig said that all the secret presents are wrapped. Except for the giant one in the den. 

Because it is way too big to wrap. Oh dear. I do not like that.

Secret presents should be all secret underneath the beautiful wrapping. Oh dear me. 















Thursday 23 December 2021

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Thirty Eight

We did not sleep in today.

I had my breakfast in the dark outside. Ha. 

Because we are very very very busy. 

Because it is nearly Merry Christmas time. Ha.

Zita and I went for a lovely early day good morning to the whole world walk this morning. 



We went all the way to our little all frozen late. 

But was a bit too cold outside.

So we had to get our warm as could be clothes on. Even my new leather boots too. 



But I got an icy face anyway. Oh well. 

After our walk Zita went to the delicious food stores.

And when she came home she brought cook it ourselves croissants. 

Because we always have brand new delicious toasty croissants when we open our Merry Christmas presents.

And the special from Austria cake too. Ha.



Merry Christmas morning has to always be very tasty. It is our rule.

And I saw the only at Merry Christmas egg nogs. In a glass bottle. In the refrigerator. Ha. 

Today Craig did not even have a nice long sleep in.

And when we had our together breakfast we had Professor Jill’s own made donuts for our breakfast. Ha. 

Because it is nearly Merry Christmas time. 

And Mister Mike and Miss Morgan came to give Emmet secret presents. And Emmet gave them his secret presents.

But they could not come into visit. 

Because nobody wants to get way too sick. 

So they had a little visit outside in my side yard. In the cold. Oh goodness me. 

After my lunchtime Zita had to go to downtown because there was still rascal ladies work to do. 

I think there is way way too much rascal ladies work. It is known. 

Then I helped Craig wrap more secret presents. But only for a little while.

Because then it was time for my nice afternoon nap.

Last night everybody was in the living room telling all the funny stories in the world.



But Niamh was standing right on top of our for coffee cups box. 



So she was as tall as could be. That was silly. 

But then everybody was very tired so we went to bed.

When Emmet is back home he is not bigger than his bed. 

In his little in Cork apartment the bed is not as big as Emmet. Oh dear me. 

Tonight Mister Tony is going to make us Merry Christmas pizzas for our dinner. 

That was a good idea.

Because I always get pizza bits. Ha. 

But Emmet is going to be downstairs for his dinnertime.

Because he is playing the dragons game with his in Canada friends. That was a good idea.

Tonight Tarryn and Cara and Lee came to my house to make their Christmas time little houses. Ha.

And they asked me to be their very best helper. That is a good idea. 

But Craig and Zita had to watch their detectives program. Too bad for them.







Wednesday 22 December 2021

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Thirty Seven

Today was an everyone got up early day. My goodness me. 

We did not go for a walk this morning because it was snowing all night last night.

So now there is more too much snow everywhere. 



And the snow moving trucks were all over my street. 

So we just had our own together breakfast.

With Emmet too.

And Zita talked to her brother Ciarán. He was not in far away Spain today. He was in Ireland. 

Because it is Merry Christmas time there too. Ha. 

Maybe Mister Saint Santa would not be able to find him in far away Spain. Dear me. 

The nice nurse could not visit us this morning.

Because of the too much snow. Oh dear.

And Zita drove Niamh to the lovely trees store. So she would not be late.




Because of the too much snow. 

Craig and I had our together breakfast. But we did not have toasts. 

We had two very tasty molasses cookies that Tarryn made instead. Ha. 

When Zita was back home she moved lots of snow away from our house.

But then she remembered that today was get the house spic and span for Merry Christmas time day. Oh well.

So I helped Craig wrap more presents in the dining room. 

Far away from the noisy clean the floors machine. 

Professor Jill was making her own made donuts. 

But she did not have the the right stuff.

But we did. Ha.

So she came to my house to get some. 

Maybe we will get some tasty own made donuts too. 

And Craig told everybody that today is my own anniversary day. And I had forgotten all about it. 

But my friend Craig remembered. Good for us. 

It is the day I came here to mind my own family. That is my very best job.



But I was so small I could not even see out my own watching window. Oh my goodness me.

\

And Niamh was not so big either. 

But now we are both much bigger. Ha. Good for us.




Craig told me that I am going to get very tasty anniversary day treats today. That is good. Tasty treats are my favourite. 

After lunchtime Emmet went up to the busy street to see nice Doctor Don. He is our dentist.

And after my lunchtime Craig and Zita and I talked to Craig’s very nice lady Doctor on the telephone. 

Then a man came to put new bandages on Craig’s feet. 

But he was not nice nurse Jesse. Too bad for Craig.

I stayed right beside Craig.

Because I did not know the man. So I stayed to guard Craig until the man was finished. 

And today Zita way very very busy with some special rascal ladies work. 

And it is our do not go to work Wednesday. Oh my goodness me.

We had a very busy day all day today. 

So I was very glad when our rascal ladies work was all finished.

Because then it was time for our before dinnertime walk in the too much snow. Ha.

But I had to get all dressed up. 

I even had to wear my new toasty warm leather boots. Oh well. 

We even saw professor Jill. 

But she did not have any own made donuts with her. Oh well.

Craig and Zita and Emmet had their together dinner but without Niamh.

Because she went to Tarryn and Anna’s apartment for her dinnertime.

And Mister Paul borrowed the go fast car. So he could find his daughter at our aeroport. 

Because Miss Caroline came back from way far away England. To her own house. 

For the Merry Christmas time. That is good. 

And she brought us a present. From England.

She was at her university in England. She is nearly a doctor too. 

Not a doctor like Miss Doctor Rachel. But a doctor like professor Jill. 

She will be a how not to get everybody all sick and die professor. That is a good idea. 

My friend Richard broke his side. When he was moving the too much snow.

So we gave him some do not be too sore medicine. Maybe it was just like mine. Maybe. 

Tara came to my house to get it. 

She is back at her house for Merry Christmas time too. That is good. 

Then Zita went and found Niamh and brought her home. 

You can not walk so very far in the too much snow. When it is too cold. It is known.








Tuesday 21 December 2021

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Thirty Six

We had a little sleep in this morning. Good for us.

But not such a long sleep in because we had rascal ladies work to do.

And back at home Emmet only had a little sleep in. Because of the wrong clocks.

And Niamh had to go to do some Merry Christmas shopping with Tarryn.

And do some important rascal ladies errands for Zita too. Ha.

Craig did not have a nice listen to his book sleep in today. 

Because the wheelchair man brought back the new go fast chair. 

With brand new made for only us parts. 

So now it has a nice place for Craig to put his feet. 



So they will not fall off and get all squished. Ha. That is a good idea. 

And later the man will put a very big wheel right in the front.

So it will not be a just fall over and crash chair. Ha. 

It was not so cold outside today. And it was very sunny too. Ha. That is a good day.



My friend Emmet is a bit sore because of the do not get sick shot. 

But then Emmet made Irish tea and ate all the raspberries and was nearly all better again. Ha.

So I had a very nice afternoon nap in the kitchen.

So that I could mind the make more tea machine. Ha. 

Last night everybody sat in the living room and we ate our pizzas there. Altogether. Ha.

And then everybody talked for a very long time.

Because Emmet has not been here for a long time. So everybody had to hear all our stories. Ha.

After I had my pizza bits I had a nice nap and kept Zita’s feet toasty warm. Ha. That is an easy job. 

This afternoon after I had my lunch I went into our living room and minded Craig. 



And he helped me look out my watching window. That is a good job for us. 

Then Zita made Craig another too much coffee and brought him a special very delicious cake. 

The cake was from way far away Austria. But it was a not for even nice dogs cake.

But I had some toasty bagel instead. Then it was time for my other afternoon nap. Ha. 


This afternoon Emmet and Craig watched scary movies. 

With dangerous monsters. 



So everybody has very sharp swords. Oh dear. 

And they were not even watching the same movie.

Emmet watched a different scary movie downstairs. Oh my goodness me.



I do not like scary noisy movies so I did not mind Craig or Emmet. 

I had my next nap instead. Ha.

But the doorbell woke me all up.

Because a man brought us lots of very beautiful flowers for Niamh.

It was a sing happy birthday day present from her lady friends. Ha.

So when Niamh and Tarryn got home there were flowers just for her. That was nice.

We had the for shepherds pie tonight. 

Because it is our favourite for dinnertime dinner. That was a good idea.

Then Emmet and Niamh and Tarryn went downstairs to watch different movies.

But Craig and Zita and I watched our detectives. Ha.
