Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Nine

Zita and I did not go to work today. Not even one time. 

Because it is a holiday. Good for us.

So we had a very quiet day. 

And Craig only had a very little sleep in. 

Then he made the coffees and toasts for us. That was a good idea. 

Then Niamh came upstairs to give me lots and lots of hugs. And to get a big drink of water.

She is almost finished listening to her very very interesting book. 

It is her new very favourite book for her university. Ha. 

Zita was reading a book all about money this morning. So I minded her and Craig too. 

He was just reading his book until it was all finished. Now he can start a brand new book. 

The one all about a very fierce almost a Viking. A long long time ago. 

Now he has his very own castle back. That is good.

Nice Mister Mohammad brought us a box of brand new coffees. That was a good idea. 

We were nearly finished all of our coffees. But now we have lots. From way far away Italy. 

Because it was not so cold today Zita and I went for a very nice but not so very long before lunchtime walk.

When we got home I had my tasty lunch right away.

Because I was nearly almost starving all away. Oh dear me.

But Zita stayed with professor Jill for a long adventure walk. 

Because they were not so very hungry. Oh well. Too bad for them. 

Zita and Niamh made a brand new very tasty special pasta. 

And it was filled up with even more delicious cheese. Ha. That was a good idea. 

But it took a long time. 

Because it is special. 

So I went into the big bedroom and had a nice nap on the comfy bed. All by myself. Ha.

We can watch the detective program again tonight.

But we cannot stay up so late tonight.

Because we have to go to work tomorrow.

And the lady on the radio said there was going to more way to much snow tonight.

When we are fast asleep.

So it will just be a big surprise tomorrow when we are all awake. Oh dear. 

That is not such a very good idea.

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Eight

It was sleep in Sunday but we only had very little sleep ins. I do not know why. Oh well.

It is only a bit cold outside today. That is good.

Today is the tell all your family that you love them forever.

And give them chocolates too. Ha.

I cannot have chocolates so I got extra turkeys for my lunchtime. Ha.

And Niamh got a giant picture for her wall. 

It is a picture about a movie she loves. 

It is all about a long long time ago in Ireland and with very scary wolves too. Oh dear me.

But Niamh really liked it anyway. 

Because it had two very fierce as wolves young ladies. 

And one had fierce red hair. Just like my friend Niamh. Ha.

Niamh got chocolates for us. But one box fell out of her big bag. And got lost. Oh well. 

Craig and I had round toasts when Zita was talking to her mother and father. 

We put lots of jam on them today. As a treat. Ha. That was a good idea.

Niamh talked to her grandmother and grandfather too. 

Then she went downstairs to listen to one of her important books. 

For her nice university. 

Sometimes it is easier to listen to very big books than to read them. 

Because you hands do not get tired holding the fat books.

Then I had a nice nap.

After our lunchtime Zita and I went for a very nice just around here here walk. 

We do not go on way far away walks. Just in case we get way too tired. That is a good idea.

Tonight Niamh is going to visit Miss Anna’s and Miss Tarryn’s apartment for dinner. 

Miss Sash and her beautiful new Jeep will be there too. Ha. 

It is only just them for a delicious dinner. Because of the do not get sick rules. 

So I only have to mind Craig and Zita tonight. That is an easy job. 

My big blue ball is not such a good ball when it is all frozen like an icicle. 

I can not even squish it. That is not so good. Even when I bark at it. Too bad for me. 

When I came in the house and had a nice right beside Zita nap. 

So I could mind her at the same time as my afternoon nap. Ha. Good for me.

After Zita drove Niamh to the two ladies apartment we had toasty cheese sandwiches for our dinner.

I always get a cheese bit for my bowl. Ha. That is a good dinner.

Then we had to find another new detective program to watch. We do not have to go to bed early tonight.

Because tomorrow is a for everybody holiday. Ha. That is good. 

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Seven

I had a nice quiet day today.

Because it was still way to cold to go for nice before breakfast walks. Oh dear me.

And we did not have even a little sleep in.

Because it was Craig’s old friends coffee day. 

I saw everybody right on Craig’s brand new flat computer.

And Zita saw her own mother on a flat computer in way far away Dublin. And talked to her too. 

Everybody saw me too. That was nice.

Then Zita talked to Auntie Eileen for a long time. 

So I had a very nice nap. Right there beside Zita in the living room. 

Last night Craig’s mother would not wake up at all. 

So the ambulance took her to the other hospital. I saw it go right by my house. 

But I did not even bark at it. Ha. Good for me. 

But when she was at the hospital she was all awake again. 

She was not even a bit dead. Good for her. 

So the ambulance took her back to her little apartment right in the middle of the night.

I did not see it.

Because I was very fast asleep. Oh well.

When Zita was all finished talking to auntie Eileen I took her for an afternoon walk.

Because it was only too cold outside. It was not way too cold. 

So we got all our very warm as can be clothes on. So we would not be all frozen up. Ha.

I only had to mind Craig and Zita at dinnertime tonight.

Because Niamh went to Miss Anna’s apartment for her dinner tonight.

So we had lots of tasty used food. 

Then we watched the new detective program. 

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Six

We did not get up too early today. That was a good idea.

But when I went outside it was so cold my feet were nearly all frozen right away. Oh dear. 

So I came back in and helped Zita with our breakfast. 

I only minded Craig a little bit this morning.

Because we are very busy with our rascal ladies work. 

Because soon we are going to have a giant on computers meeting with lots and lots of young ladies who want to be rascal ladies. 

So we are very very busy. It is known. 

But then I had to go and help Craig with his round toasts. 

I had a very busy morning. 

Niamh was very busy too. I could hear her professor talking right on the television. 

I could only listen for a little bit. Because of my other work. Oh well.

Craig and I had a giant peanut butter and honey sandwich for our lunch today. With very delicious brand new bread. Ha.

Then I went back to our office to be Zita’s very best quiet helper. 

Last night Emmet was very busy too. He was playing his dragons game with his friends here. 

Not his friends in way far away Ireland. 

But he has to stay up until the morning when he plays with his friends from just here. 

Because of the wrong clocks in the way far away Cork university. Oh dear. Too bad for him.

It is so cold outside Zita had to give our side yard door its own blanket.

Just to keep it comfy warm. Oh dear me.

I have a new very soft and comfy blanket in the den. Just for me. 

It is Niamh’s and she said I could borrow it. Ha. That is nice.

And I have a new pillow in the big bedroom. It is one of Craig old fuzzy warm shirts. 

But Zita said it is too small for him. So now it is my comfy pillow. Ha.

Zita heard our friend Professor Em on the radio. Talking about her very very very old fish. 

When they could walk on the ground. Oh dear. That is silly. 

But Professor Em knows more about how fish got to be fish than everybody else. 

She even has her very own giant office at the other university. 

Where she looks at fish all day. Oh dear me. I do not think that is so very interesting. 

She should just look at very polite dogs like me. That would be interesting. 

You cannot go for lovely walks in the park with fish. They have to just stay in the pond. Too bad for them.

We did not go for our lovely before dinnertime walk today.

Because it was still too cold. 

Zita said if we want outside maybe I would be a Poppyscicle. Even with my new warm coat. Oh dear me.

I would not like that at all. 

So we did not go. I had a nice nap instead. On my warm comfy blanket. 

A nice man brought us lots of food from Mister McDonald for our together dinnertime.

Because everybody had a too busy day and were too tired to be tasty cooks tonight. 

And all the very tasty restaurants were closed. Oh well. 

Maybe they will be open another day.

Last night we had ice cream when we watched the detective program. 

Maybe we will have some tonight too. Maybe.

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Five

I had a very nice quiet day today today. 

But I had a grumbly tummy when we got up.

So Zita gave me a special turkey treat. Ha.

Then she drove Niamh to the beautiful clothes store.

And I minded Craig for a bit. 

But he was listening to his new book. All about a long time ago king. 

So I helped Zita for a little while but then she had to talk to everybody. 

And I have to be very very quiet when she talks to everybody. 

So I went and had a nap in the living room.

Then Craig and I had the tasty round toasts with jam for our breakfast. 

Zita had them too. 

The round toasts are very good toasts. 

Because they are full of holes so you can fill them up with delicious jam. 

At lunchtime Zita and the go fast car had to go back to the post office. To fix some mistakes. Oh dear. 

To make sure all the young rascal ladies got their important boxes. 

And one of the young rascal ladies has a dog. A big black dog. Ha. 

And they said he was very happy and he liked everything in the box that the young lady got. Ha. Good for him.

Miss Sash brought Niamh home in her brand new Jeep. 

Because nobody could drive to downtown this afternoon.

Because there were police cars everywhere.

They were looking for someone nasty. Oh dear me. 

So I will just watch out my watching window. 

I do not want anyone nasty on my street. It will be too bad for them. Ha.

After Niamh was all safe and home Zita and I went for our before dinner walk.

It was not so dark today. Just too cold. 

Because the sunshine is going away later. I do not know why. 

I had to wear my boots anyway. And my very warm very red jacket too. 

When we get home and all warm as toasts we are going to have a together delicious spaghetti dinner. 

With another delicious own made sauce. 

And lots of just for pastas cheese right over everything. Ha. That is my favourite cheese. It is known.

Kathy brought it to our house. 

Because the Mahoneys love lots of cheeses too. 

It is our friend Mister Aidan’s sing happy birthday day tomorrow. 

He always has his party here at our house. With his family. And an on fire cake too. 

But he cannot do that this year.

Because of the do not get sick rules. Oh dear me. Too bad for us.

Niamh and Mister Aidan were friends even when they were very little. 

Before I even lived here to mind everybody. Oh goodness me. 

That was a very long time ago. 

We have to find a new detective program tonight to watch. 

We watched all other the other one right to the end last night. Oh dear.

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Four

Zita and I got up very early this morning. I do not know why.

So we had our breakfast and looked out at our neighbourhood. 

But there was nobody outside. It was too early.

In a little while it was very very sunny 

But when I went outside into my side yard it was too cold.

So I did not play with my big blue ball this morning. Oh well.

Then Niamh was all awake too. She was reading her important book for her university class.

But then it was her go to work time. 

So Zita and the go fast car took her downtown where her beautiful clothes store lives.

I went into the bed room to mind fast asleep Craig.

But we were all fast awake when Zita got home. Good for us.

So all of us had our together toasts. And we looked out the watching windows. 

There were lots of people sliding into the empty pond. 

Even some dogs too. Oh dear me. That is not such a good idea.

Dogs are not such very good sliders. 

One time when I was sliding on the slippy ice I hurt my leg. Too bad for them.

Then Zita and I went for a before lunchtime walk. 

And we found professor Jill. So we walked for a long time.

But I was not cold.

Because I had my beautiful new comfy warm coat on. Ha.

When we came home I had my lunch but Zita went for her adventure walk to the lots of old books store. 

On the other side of the beautiful bridge. 

You can get lots of coffee and even very tasty treats there too. That is a good book store. 

And she got a book for Niamh. 

Some boys from our nice university started that store. That was a good idea. 

Sometimes people make real music there. 

Right inside the store in the night time. And they do not use any music machines. Ha. 

And the present man brought use a big box for Mister Aidan Mahoney. I do not know why. 

And another package for Miss Anna. From way far away in England. 

Maybe they are secrets. Ha. I love secrets.

Zita took all the too much ice out of the extra little refrigerator in our office. 

When it was all empty as can be we put all the food back inside. 

Then Zita went and brought Niamh back home so we could have our together dinner.

We had all mixed up and cooked vegetables with chicken too. Ha. 

Chicken is my favourite. And bacon. And frozen peas too. Ha.

Maybe we will watch the detective program tonight. And have chips too. Maybe.

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Three

I only had a very little sleep in today.

Because we had a very busy day. All day long. Oh well. 

Zita took doctor Susan’s red nearly a truck to the giant post office. 

It was filled up to the top with lots and lots and lots of boxes for the young rascal ladies all over our country. 

And Zita had to wait until the post office people put stickers on each one. Oh dear.

Then after lunchtime she had to go back to make sure they were all gone.

And this morning Miss Tarryn drove Niamh to her eye doctor. Now she will get new different kind of glasses. 

Because her head was bopped when she was at her other university. Oh dear me.

So I just minded Craig until he was all awake and then we had two big toasts. With jam too. Ha.

When Zita and Niamh were back home Zita cooked lots of very tasty bacon.

The bacon from just around here. From the nice farmers. 

So Craig and I had bacon sandwiches for our together lunchtime. Ha. That was a very good idea.

Then the go fast car took Niamh to another doctor. A fix the inside of your shoulders doctor. 

So he could look at the inside pictures of her not so very good shoulder. Oh dear me. Too many doctors.

I stayed here so I could mind Craig. 

So he would not get into any trouble. Ha. That is my best easy job.

Sometimes we have just because treats when it is only Craig and I in the house. 

But we do not tell anyone. Ha. Good for us. 

When Niamh got home I minded her. 

But I could not mind Zita because she had to go back to the giant not so very near post office. 

And when Zita got back home it was time for our before dinner walk.

I pretended that I was fast asleep. 

But Zita was not fooled. 

So I had to wear my green rubber boots again. Oh well. 

But it was not even all dark yet. That is a good time for a nice walk. Even with my boots on. Oh well. 

So when we got back home it was make our dinner time. 

So I helped Zita make our tasty together dinner. 

We made a full of cheese delicious sauce from far away France. It is a very good sauce. 

Craig said when you put it on the cauliflower you cannot even taste the cauliflowers. Ha. 

I get to taste things to make sure they are as tasty as can be. 

I am the very best kitchen helper ever. 

Zita told me. So it is very true. Ha. Good for me. 

Today was a very long day for everybody. Except for Craig.

But tomorrow Zita and I do not have to go to work. Ha. That is a good idea. 

I think we will watch the detective program tonight.

Last night we had delicious ice cream. 

Maybe we will have some tonight too. Maybe. 

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Two

I had a very nice sleep in this morning.

I did not even wakeup when Zita got up and was all awake. 

I just stayed in the big comfy bed beside Craig until he got all dressed. Ha. Good for me.

I had a grumbly tummy so Zita got me my breakfast right away. 

And she put tasty turkey right on top. Ha.

When Craig made Zita her fluffy coffee he made two toasts. 

One for Zita with not so tasty marmalade on top.

And one for us with delicious jam. Ha good for us.

It is very cold outside today.

But Niamh went for a walk to the busy street. So she could get her very favourite coffees at the lots of coffees store. 

She did not have a nice sleep in. 

Because she had to watch her very interesting class on the old big television. Oh well.

At lunchtime Zita took all the snow away from my side yard. 

So all the catching balls would not get lost in the too much snow. 

But I could not help her. Oh well. 

Last night we had our own pizzas in the den. So we could watch the important football game.

But it was not such an interesting game. 

So after I had some pizza bits I went right asleep. Ha. 

This afternoon I saw my best friend Emmet today. Craig and Zita and Niamh were there too. 

So everybody was altogether. 

But only on Zita’s computer.

Because he is still in his way far away in Cork university. Oh dear me. That is not so nice. 

He said he was so busy his head is going to fall right off. Oh dear me. 

What if he could not find it right away.

And I would not be there to find it with my very good for finding things nose. Oh dear me. 

What to do. What to do. 

He is so busy because has to change all the very very old words into brand new words.

So people can read the very very old from Ireland stories. 

He said it makes his head hurt. Oh dear. 

He should have more nice naps. 

When he was talking I had a very nice nap. 

We talked to him for a long time. 

He told us all about writing his important giant story. He said you have to find only the right words.

And lots of times you have to try lots of wrong words before the right word just is there. Maybe it is magic. Maybe.

Then we talked a lot until Zita had to go to another very long rascal ladies meeting.

And then Niamh had to do some more writing and Emmet had to go to make his tea. In the very little kitchen. 

So we waved and waved at the computer until he was gone. Oh dear me.

So I just went back to fast asleep. Ha.

Niamh went to Miss Tarryn and Miss Anna’s apartment for a little dinner. 

So we will not have a together dinner tonight and my friend Emmet will not be here either. Too bad for us. 

Maybe we will watch the from Ireland detective again tonight. 

Before we go to fast asleep. 

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Twenty One

We had even more snow when I was fast asleep. 

When I was all wide awake and looked out my windows at everything there was more nasty snow. All over.

Nobody told me that there was going to be more snow. Oh dear.

Now the scary move the snow machines will come to my street again. Oh dear. 

They are not so nice machines. 

Not like my friends the back go fast car. Or the silver little car. Oh well. 

Because it was sleep in Sunday Craig had a nice sleep in. 

But my friend Niamh did not even come home last night. Oh dear.

Because she slept at Miss Anna’s and Miss Tarryn’s apartment. 

When they were talking all about the whole world Niamh fell to fast asleep. 

Right on their not so comfy sofa. Oh dear. 

And she did not even wake up until it was way to late to walk home. That was silly.

And she slept in her own clothes not her comfy pajamas. Too bad for her.

This morning Zita and I cleaned the refrigerator all up. Ha.

And we put all the food on the floor. 

And washed all the insides of the refrigerator. 

That was a big job. Zita said I was a very big help.

Because I did not even lick anything at all. Good for me. 

And we made the very very tasty peaches and oatmeals dessert. 

And we had some for our together lunch. That is a tasty dessert. 

And you do not even have to have it for dessert. You can have it any time. It is just because food.  Ha. 

Then Niamh came home. 

She walked from downtown and did not even fall down on her bottom. That was a good idea. 

Zita got Niamh a helmet for fast skiing down a mountain. 

And she can even use it when she is skating on our all frozen up canal. 

So she will not bump her head again. And have to go to the nasty food hospital again. Ha. 

After Niamh was home Zita and I went for a very long all over everywhere walk. 

It was a very nice day outside. There was not any windy snow and it was not so very cold.

And the snow was only the blow all around snow. It was not the stick to me snow. That was good. 

But I still had to wear my rubber boots. Oh well. 

When we got home Zita made Craig and neat and tidy again. That was a good idea.

He could not go up to the busy street to his nest and tidy store. Because of the rules.

So he was very very messy. Oh dear me. 

So Zita got her special neat and tidy scissors and now he is not so messy anymore. 

He is only a bit messy. 

But Craig does not see messy so much as Zita and Niamh and I do. Ha. Too bad for messy him. 

Then Zita went outside to move some of the too much snow. 

I stayed inside fierce barked at everybody. To make sure they did get in her way. Ha. 

Tonight is the night for the last football game. Ha. That is a good idea.

We are going to have own made delicious pizzas. 

And eat it right in the den. Not in the dining room.

So we can watch the important football game. 

I always get pizza bits. Good for me. 

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Twenty

It was clean the house day today.

So we did not have any nice sleep ins. 

Zita took Niamh all the way downtown to her work. 

And it was Craig’s coffee with old friends on the computer day. 

So we did not have our good morning toasts. 

And when Zita was back home she talked to her mother and father.

While she was making everything spic and span.

But not when she was using the noisy clean the floors machine. Ha. 

Then I went outside to play with my big blue ball. 

Because I cannot hear the noisy machine when I am outside. Ha. 

After lunchtime Zita and doctor Susan and Miss Chris went for a not close together adventure walk. 

I stayed here so I could mind my friend Craig. 

And I had a very nice nap in the den when he read his book.

So I had a very nice quiet afternoon.

Because only Craig and I were here. And we are very quiet. 

Then Mister Tom brought us a new program to watch after our dinnertimes. That was very nice.

When Zita came home she brought Niamh with her. 

So she would not just walk home and maybe fall down on the icy sidewalks and hurt her head. 

One time I slipped right off my own sidewalk and got hurt. 

But that was a very long time ago. When I was a too fast walking dog. Oh well.

And we they got home they had to go back to downtown. Again. 

Because Niamh forgot to get her important book from the store. Oh dear. Too bad for her.

This afternoon Craig found a picture of me when I was little.

I was so so little I could not see so well out of my watching window.

That was a long time ago. Oh well.

Now I can watch everybody even when I am laying down right on my tummy. Ha. Good for me.

I  only had to watch Craig and Zita tonight. That was an easy job.

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Nineteen

We did not get up too early today. 

And Craig did not even get up until nearly my lunchtime. My goodness.

The go fast car took Niamh to the beautiful clothes store. And Miss Anna too.

Because she cannot walk so very well with her still broken foot. Oh dear.

So they took her too. So she would not just fall down again on the slippy sidewalks. 

And break something else. Oh dear. That would not be so good. 

When we got home I minded Zita right in our own office. 

Because Craig was still under the warm duvet in the big comfy bed. 

He was listening to a new book. 

All about my friend Mister Saint Newton. And all his adventures.

I did not know that Mister Saint Newton found lots and lots of important brand new ideas. Ha.

Craig told me he never knew how many things he did not know anything about. 

He only thought he did. Oh dear. That is not such a nice idea. 

I think he should only read his nice books.

The ones about nice knights with a giant horses and his fierce brave dogs. 

And big castles too. Ones with a roof. And not so many ghosts. Ha. That is the best kind of book. 

When he was all awake we had a cinnamon bun. And looked out my watching window. 

The cinnamon bun was too big so I had to help Craig eat it. We had it for our lunchtime. Ha.

Then I went back to help Zita with her rascal ladies work. 

So we did not have any together toasts today. Only a together lunchtime. Oh well. Too bad for us. 

Zita went for a nice run all over run today. At lunchtime. 

I could not go. I had to stay here to mind Craig. Oh well. 

So I watched her out my watching window. Until I could not see her anymore. Oh dear me. 

It was not even cold today. 

But there was even more snow last night. Oh dear.

But now everything is just a bit all over messy everywhere.  Oh dear me. 

So Zita had to have a squeaky clean shower shower when she was back home. 

When Niamh got home from the beautiful clothes store she had a squeaky clean shower shower too. 

With her very loud music on. Oh dear. 

Zita does not need to have any music when she has a squeaky clean shower. Just soap. 

When it got dark outside Craig and I had a cookie. In case we forgot to eat our dinner. 

Then Zita and I went for our before dinner walk. But it was in the dark.

Because Zita was very busy until late today. Oh dear. Too bad for her.

And I had to wear all my boots. 

Because everything was still all messy. And not it is just all cold too. Oh dear me. 

When we were home and warm I helped Zita make our delicious dinner. 

I think we will have a together dinner tonight. 

Maybe we will have lots of cheese again. Maybe. 

Zita said her week was very long. Mine too. Oh dear. 

Maybe next week will be short. Maybe. 

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Eighteen

We did not have any sleep ins today.

Because we had a very busy morning.

Niamh had to go to visit her just for eyes doctor. 

So Zita drove her right there. And she waited for Niamh.

Because after you go to the just for eyes doctor you cannot see so well. That is very silly.

Craig and I were all awake right away so we had two croissants for our breakfast.

And then we waited for the go fast car to bring Zita and Niamh back home. 

I had a little nap too. But Craig just read his book.

When they got home Niamh told me that her very tall doctor had the most beautiful office in the world.

It is nice to have a beautiful place to work. 

That is why we have my very comfy blanket in our office. Just for me. 

Then Niamh had her lunch. I had mine too. I had some brand new just cooked turkey on mine.

And Zita went for her run all over everywhere. And Niamh and Lee went for an adventure walk too.

When Zita came home we went for our lunchtime walk.

It was not very cold today. It was just beautiful and sunny blue all over the sky. 

Because there were not any fat sheep clouds at all. Anywhere. 

I think Mister Shadow and Miss Maggie chased them all away. 

For their hello to everybody down here exercise. Ha. 

This time I only had to wear my boots. 

So I would not get nasty salt on my feet. Ha.

Then when we came home Zita went to her rascal ladies office and I had a beside Craig nap. In the living room.

When I was fast asleep a present lady came to my house and knocked right on my watching window. Oh dear.

I did not even know she was there. Either did Craig. 

Craig said were just very startled. But we were not even a little bit afraid. Ha. Good for us. 

So I barked at her. Very loudly.

Because that is what you do when you are all of a sudden just startled. Ha. 

But she was only just all as lost as can be. Oh dear. Too bad for her. 

When she left she was still lost. Oh dear. 

But then our house was all safe as could be.

So I had a lovely quiet nap in the kitchen.

Because Zita was talking to everybody right on her computer. 

So then you have to be very quiet. Just like a little bird. Ha.

Niamh was very busy this afternoon giving somebody lots of numbers. Out loud. 

And then the other person would say the same number again. 

That is a very silly game. Too bad for them. 

But I was very quiet. 

Then Zita came into the living room and we got my boots on so we could go for our before dinner walk.

I wore my cosy warm jacket too. Zita said I am a very stylish dog. Just like my friend Niamh. 

It was only Craig and Zita for the lovely dinner tonight. 

Because Niamh had to go and get an inside picture of her not so good shoulder. Oh dear. Too bad for her.

Last night we had tasty toasts treats with jam. 

When we watched the detective program. Ha. That was a good idea. 

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Seventeen

I had a very quiet time today.

Because I only had my friend Craig to mind.

Everybody else was gone. 

The go fast car took Niamh to her beautiful clothes store and then it took Zita to the other office.

And this was her do not go to work day. But she had to go to work anyway.

Because she had to fix some broken things. Oh dear me.

So I had a very quiet day. 

I was awake a lot last night. Because I could not just get nice and comfortable. 

And sometimes I do not see so very well in the nighttime. 

So I cannot get up on the comfy bed so easily.

But my friend Zita helps me. Because we are always best friends. It is known. 

When you get a bit old you do not see so very well. Oh dear.

Tomorrow Niamh is going to see her eye doctor and Zita got brand new see her books glasses.

And they are not even so old. Oh dear. Too bad for them. 

Craig and I had our together breakfast toasts. With the brand new from nearly here jam.

Then we watched out the watching window. 

It is not way too cold outside today. So there were lots of people to watch. That was fun.

Then Craig read his book and I had a right beside him sleep. That is just right.

Then I got very tasty chicken on top of my tasty lunch. That was a good lunch.

Then I went back to sleep after I watched all children slide down the hill. 

But there were not many children there today. 

So it was not so very interesting today. That is why I had a lovely quiet day. 

Then the go fast car was here. And it was all full up to the top with wonderful food. Ha.

So we put it all away. Except for the very fat croissants .

Because Craig and I had one for our middle of the afternoon tasty snack. 

Craig warmed it all up in the oven. So the butter would melt all over it. Ha.

Zita did not have a delicious croissant. 

Because the go fast car had to go right downtown again.

So it could go and find Niamh to bring her back home. Ha.

So I waited at my watching window until they were right in our own driveway. 

It is my best job. 

When they were all back home we decided to have a very early together dinner. Ha.

And we are going to have croissants and brand new just made bread. And lots of different delicious cheeses. Ha. That is my favourite dinner. 

Then Zita had her after dinner tea with her lady friends. Right on her computer.

Because of the do not get sick and have to go to the nasty food hospital rules.

Emmet’s friend Miss Rachel is a practice doctor at the nasty food hospital. Oh dear. Too bad for her.

I do not know what Craig is going to do after dinner. Maybe watch a too loud movie.

So I am going to mind my friend Zita. 

She is not so loud as loud movies. Ha.

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Sixteen

I did not have a sick tummy last night. I do not like it when I have a sick tummy.

It was good that I did not have a sick tummy last night.

Because I was very very busy guarding my own house. For a long time. In the middle of the night. 

The very loud and scary gobble up the snow machine was on my street.

And with lots and lots of very noisy move all the snow around machines. 

And the giant too bright take the snow away trucks too. Oh dear me.

I had to stay right at my windows and fierce bark at them. For a long time. 

So they would not try too gobble up our cars. Or maybe even our beautiful house. 

Zita watched them too. She came to help me. 

So I had to mind her and guard the house all at the very same time. All by myself.

Because Craig is not so scared of the very noisy machines so he was just fast asleep.

That is not so very brave. Too bad for him.

When all the snow was taken away everything was quiet again.

So Zita and I went to back asleep. 

This morning I was very tired from guarding the house.

So after Craig and I had our toasts I had a nice nap. 

Right in the living room. Beside Craig. 

He was just reading his nice book about the long time ago Doctor who is a detective too. Ha.

After Zita had her go all over run we went for our lovely walk. 

But as soon as we got to my street there was all of a sudden windy snow. Everywhere. 

But we went anyway. Because we were all dressed in our very warm clothes. Ha. 

When we got home I got green beans on my lunch. Craig knows that green beans are my favourite. 

Then I looked out the window. It was not even a bit interesting. Because of the windy snow.

So I had another nice nap. 

Because I had to be a very quiet minder this afternoon. 

Because Niamh had another little remember everything exam. Oh dear me.

But then the go fast car had to take Zita downtown to get something important. 

So she had to take the even more snow off the car first.

I minded everybody while she was gone. It is my job.

Dogs are the very best at minding their families. 

Mister God gave us this job at the very beginning. 

So we are very good at it.  Ha. Good for us. 

But when Zita got home she had to go right back downtown. To the other rascal ladies office.

Because something was just not all right. 

So Zita had to go back so she could fix it. Oh dear me. 

But I was still the very best quiet minder ever today. Good for me.

We had the used full of delicious meat soup tonight. 

And the toasty warm crunchy bread from France. Ha.

I think we will watch the detective from Ireland tonight. 

But he is not in Ireland, he is in England. 

But I do not know why. Oh well.

Day Three Thousand One Hundred and Fifteen

I had another sick tummy in the middle of the night.

Craig said maybe I had too many delicious treats. Oh dear me. That is not such a good idea. 

Craig had a big sleep in today.

When I was not way too busy helping Zita I went into the our bedroom to mind him. 

And to keep his toasty warm.

But he listened to his new book for so long we did not even have our breakfast toasts. 

We had to have lunchtime toasts instead. Oh dear. Too bad for me. 

It is still a very cold day outside. But not so cold as yesterday. That was good.

Miss Tarryn came over to do her homework with Niamh. 

Niamh even had a very little exam today. Oh dear me. 

So I had to be very quiet. Oh well.

Last night Zita made a delicious nearly a cake. 

But with way too much chocolate. And all cooked oatmeal on the bottom too. Ha.

Everybody had some. Except me. 

Because of the too much delicious chocolate.

But you can only have a very little bit at a time. Or you will just explode. Craig told me so. Oh dear. 

I would not want my family to explode all over everywhere. Oh dear me.

So you can only have little bites of it. Ha. 

May Zita should hide it. Maybe. 

After my own lunch I had a very long nap in the kitchen.

Zita was very busy with lots of only on her computer meetings. 

I have to be very quiet when she has those meetings. 

That is not such a very easy job for a good minder dog like me. Oh dear.

When Zita was all finished her work I was still all fast asleep. 

When I woke up it was too late to go for our before dinnertime walk.

Because it was dinnertime. Oh dear me.  

So I helped Zita make our dinner. I was a very big help. I got treats.

We did not tell Craig. Ha. Too bad for him. 

So we had tortellinis and brand new cheese for pasta for our dinner tonight. 

Then Zita and Niamh drove Miss Tarryn home. 

I think we will watch the detective program tonight.

But not so long. Because Zita and I did not get so much sleep last night.
