Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Ninety One

It was a get up early for for Zita and Niamh and I.

Because today is Niamh’s early in the morning class at her university.

Because it was not way too cold today she went for a very fast walk to her nice university.

And right away it was time for Zita and I to go to our rascal ladies work.

But when Craig was all awake I helped him with our together toasts. 

We had very fat toasts today. And strawberries jam too. 

But then it was time for me to go back to work in our office. Oh well. 

At lunchtime Zita and I went for our walk in the lots and lots of sunshine. 



I wore my all brand new purple boots today. Ha. 

Zita says I am as stylish as Niamh. Ha. Good for us. 

This morning the present man brought even more shoes for Niamh. That is why we are so stylish. 

Because of our feet. Ha. 

But it was still very cold outside so we had to wear our warmest coats too. 



We did not go on our all the time same way walk. 

We went up my other street instead. 

Because we had to go and give our friend Brenda something to fix her computer. My goodness.


After that we went to Craig’s mother’s little apartment. To bring lots of chocolates for her.

And for all the nice nurses too. Ha. That was a very good idea.

I was a very good delivery dog today. That is an important job. Good for us.

Then we went to see our all empty ponds. 

They are more interesting when they are all full up with water. 

And my friends the ducks are there too. Oh well.

When we got home the washing machine made my comfy kitchen bed as clean as could be.

But very clean beds do not smell so very comfy. Oh well.

I had my afternoon nap on it anyway. 

Last night when Niamh was all home and in her comfy bed Mister Holden asked her to go out for snacks.

Because he had to talk to Niamh all about his election at their university. Oh my goodness me. 

So they went and had milkshakes. Even in the very cold. Oh my goodness me. 

I do not think I want be in an election. I do not like to get up when I am very fast asleep. It is known. 

When Niamh got home she had a bath to get all warm again.

Before dinnertime. 

Some of our very very fast lady skaters won the very best medal.  All by themselves. Ha.



Good for them.

But before dinnertime Zita found the very noisy machine to clean our bedroom.

Because tomorrow lots of people are going to come to my house to do things for the new bathroom. Oh my goodness me.

Maybe even in our own bedroom. Oh dear. 

So tomorrow everybody has to get up very early. Even Craig and me. Oh my goodness me. 

We had spaghettis for our dinner. 

But it was just Craig and Zita and I.

Because Niamh had another get Mister Holden elected meeting. In the basement. Oh goodness me.

So Craig and Zita and I watched the detective from the other part of Ireland. 

The part without any of our cousins.

Day Three Thousand Four and Ninety

It was another too cold outside day today.

So Zita and I had our together breakfast and then we went to our rascal ladies office.

Because it was go back to work Monday. Oh well.

Miss Sash drove Niamh to her doctor today.

And then Sash and Niamh cleaned Sash’s sometimes house. It was a bit very messy. Oh dear. 

Craig did not get up even a bit early. Ha. He just listened to his book for a long time. 

Today is Mister Saint Valentines very own day. 

That is the day when you know who loves you. Ha. 

Craig said I am our family’s valentine. 

Because everybody loves me. 

Even when I am a too much barking dog. Ha. Good for me. 

We have some boxes of chocolates. One for Craig’s mother. 

And another one for all the nice nurses at her little apartment. That was a good idea. 

Zita and I went for a lunchtime walk. And it was still very cold outside.



But we are very brave and we went anyway. Ha.

And when we got home and I was all warm again it was my lunch time.

And I got cheesie bits on top of my lunch.

Then I went to keep Zita company in our lovely warm office. Ha. 

I have my own comfy rug in our office. Just for me. 

So I stayed there all afternoon. 

Just in case Zita needed me right away. That is an important job. 

Then we had our together dinner. We had green beans too. 

But it was only Craig and Zita and I for our dinner.

Because Niamh was at a stretch every bit of yourself all over class. 

And when she got home she was as tired as can be. Oh dear. 

Craig and Zita and I watched the lady detective again. 



Sunday, 13 February 2022

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty Nine

We had a little sleep in today. 

Because it was our sleep in Sunday.

But when we got all awake it was too cold outside for a lovely good morning walk.

Even a very short one. Oh dear me.



So Zita and I had our breakfast and then Zita talked to her mother and father in way far away Dublin. 

It was not even a bit cold there. 

Their flowers are getting all ready to be beautiful. 

They have lots and lots of beautiful flowers in their backyard. 

After a while it was only very cold and Zita and I were all ready to go for our walk.

I even had all my boots on but then Craig need some help getting his new sock on.

So I had to be a very good waiting dog.

Being a good waiter is very hard when you have all your boots on and you are still inside. 

So when Craig was all up and awake Zita and I went for a long walk. Right away. 

And it was very sunny outside but it was still very cold. Oh my goodness me.



And we even got doctor Susan to go on our walk with us too. That was nice.



When we got home I was only a bit cold.

Because I had my very very warm red coat on. Ha.

Then it was time for my lunch and then I had my very nice nap.

But then our friend Brenda came to visit. 

So I had the rest of my nap right on top of Zita’s feet. In the living room. Ha.

Brenda lives right beside where my family used to live. 

Before I came to be their very best minder.

But now the house is too big. 

So she and Mister Rob are moving to a brand new apartment. Right on our busy street. Ha.

And then Miss Emily came to visit Niamh. 

And they had their coffee and tasty biscuits in the living room. 

And Mister Tom visited this afternoon to bring us brand new detective programs too. That was very nice. 

So I was very busy this afternoon. It is known. 

This evening Niamh is going to see Miss Sash.

Because Miss Sash is taking care of a house and a very very old little dog. 

Because the people are away in another country. 

And today is Miss Sash’s very first day in that house. Oh my goodness.

Before dinnertime zZita made my toes all neat and tidy.

Because I was so furry that I was slip sliding on the kitchen floor. Oh my goodness me.

And tonight is was the giant football game day too. Oh dear me.

So Craig and Zita and I had our dinner in the den and watched that game at the same time.

We had cheesie nachos. That was a very tasty dinner. Ha. 

I do not think that football games are so very interesting. It is known.

So I had a nice nap. 

Saturday, 12 February 2022

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty Eight

Everybody got up early today. 

But Zita and I did not go for a good morning walk.

Because it was raining outside. That was silly.

We did not want to be soggy so we just had our together breakfast and looked out the window.

Then Craig was all dressed too.

Because a new nurse came to my house to put on a brand new bandage.

She was a very good nurse and she did everything all right. Ha. 

So nothing hurt at all. Good for us.

But then when I looked out the window all the rain was all of a sudden just snow. 



And there was new all over everywhere snow. Oh my goodness me.

After the nice nurse went away my friend Niamh was all awake too.

Because it was her other day to work at the lovely store. 

The go fast car took her there because of the all of a sudden snow. 

But Zita did not come right back home.

Because she had important things to do. 

And she went to Mister IKEA’s store to look for some more beautiful tiles.

But they are for the floor tiles. We already got the for the wall tiles. Ha. Good for us.

When only Craig and I were here he had his next coffee and a cupcake. 

I had some of the bottom of the cupcake. 

Because the top was all covered in not for dogs chocolate. That was a good idea.

Then Craig and I talked to his old friends. On the flat computer. 

We were in the living room today so I could look out my watching window at the same time. 



And I saw one of the nasty way too noisy trucks. 

Right on my own street. And it had flags all over it. 

And it was not downtown. It was right in front of my watching window. Oh dear. 

So I fierce barked it all away. Ha. Good for me. 

Then after my lunch it was afternoon nap time. 

It is always nice to have a full up tummy when you have a lovely nap.

When Zita got back home she did not have any tiles. 

She had some lights for the bathroom instead. 

Because nobody wants to have a lovely bath in the as dark as night. It is known. 

Then it was time for our before dinner walk. 

We wanted to go before it got all dark again. And before it got way cold again. 

It is not so nice going for a walk in the very cold and dark. 

We even found Professor Jill but it was so cold we did not even go far.



And when I got home I was a Poppyscicle. 

But it was just the right time for our early dinner. 

So I sat on my comfy rug until I was not all frozen. Then I helped Zita make our dinner. 

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

That is why we had our early dinnertime.

It is Mister Aidan’s sing happy birthday day today. 

But everybody is still older than he is. Too bad for him. Oh well.

We watched another lady detective from Ireland. 

But not in Zita’s part of Ireland. Just in the other part. 

So we will not see any of our cousins. Oh well. 











Friday, 11 February 2022

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty Seven

We had a nice quiet day today.

There were no broken pipes or silly dead birds anywhere. Ha.

It was another not cold outside day today. But it is very messy all over. 

So I stayed in our office to be Zita’s best assistant. 

Today is Niamh’s day to be at her nice university all day. Even until dinnertime.

So there was no lovely music in the basement today. Oh well. 

I did not have my good morning croissant with Craig this morning.

Because I was too busy helping Zita.

But I was all awake at lunchtime so I helped Craig with our round toasts.

We did not have any tasty jam today.

Because we ate all of it on our toasty treats. Oh well. Too bad for us. 

Then after my own lunch with chicken on top I went right back to our office. 

It was a very nice quiet day. And I did not get in any trouble today. That was good.

I was way too busy yesterday. Oh well.

Then my friend Zita had to empty her whole head so I took her on a nice walk. 



And then it started to be a bit snowy. Oh my goodness me.

But we went anyway. 

Because Zita and I are not even a bit afraid of snow. Ha. Good for us. 

But it was not so cold so I did not have to wear my red very warm coat.

Or even my rubber boots. Ha.



But I was a bit very dirty when I brought Zita home.

So I stayed in the kitchen until I was as dry as could be.

My friend Craig kept me company. 



Then I fell fast asleep.

Because it was just the right time for my afternoon nap. Ha. Good for me. 

But then my friend Zita needed my help. So I had my nap in our office.

Tonight Kathy had dinner with us. I had not seen her in a long time. Ha.

So Zita went to find her so they could go to the tasty grocery store.

And get lots of food for our dinner. That was a good idea.

But they were both soggy when they got back to my house. 

Because it was raining outside. That is not all right. My goodness me.

But Zita cooked the especially delicious sausages outside even in the rain. 

And Kathy and Niamh and Tarryn made lots of pastas and some salads too. That was a good idea. 

At dinnertime everybody talked instead of eating. Ha. That was a silly idea. 

I always eat as soon as I can. It is known. 

We did not watch our detectives tonight.

Because we had guests. Ha. 

Thursday, 10 February 2022

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty Six

We had a very busy day today.

Zita was going to go to her downtown office but things were too busy here. 

Our outside pipe broke and some water got in the window. In the basement. 

Because it is not even freezing outside today. That is silly. 



So Zita had to fix our outside pipe. 

But when she came in the side yard there was a dead as could be bird. 

It was all dead because I caught it stealing our berries. 

But I got in trouble anyway. Too bad for me. 

And then Zita had to make the side yard neat and tidy again. 

Without an all dead bird. 

And I had to stay in the house. 

And last night Craig and Zita had to take the bandage off his foot.

Because the not so good nurse put it on wrong. Oh my goodness me.

I knew he was a not such a very good nurse. 

That is why I just stayed beside Craig when he was here. 

Then Zita put a brand new bandage on the right way. Ha. 

And his foot was not way too sore anymore. Ha.

Then everybody went to fast asleep. 

And this morning when Craig was all awake he made Zita a very very fluffy coffee. 

Because she had a way too busy moving.

Then I went in the living room to stay beside my friend Craig. To mind him. 



I cannot get in trouble when I am just minding Craig. It is known. 

I got peanut butter and cheesie bits on my lunch. It was very delicious. 

Just like Craig’s peanut butter and cheese sandwich. Ha. 

Then I had my after lunchtime nap. 

Now we have to decide which nice tile will be as beautiful as can be in our basement bedroom. 



Because Zita says they will be there forever. Oh my. 

I did not say anything so I could not be wrong. Ha. That was a good idea. 

When my afternoon nap was over Zita went to do more important errands.

And I stayed here to look out my watching window with Craig.

When Zita came back she had another not broken pipe. And it worked as good as could be. Ha.

But she had to go out again. 

Because we decided what beautiful tiles we are going to get and she went to the store.

So nobody could get them before us. 

And when she came home we had lots of boxes of the most beautiful tiles. Just for our bathroom. 

When Niamh came home from university Tarryn was with her. 

Because they have the very same class today. Ha.

I helped Zita with our very tasty dinnertime. 

We had chicken all wrapped up in very skinny bread. With lots of vegetables too. 

It was a make it yourself dinner.

Maybe it was a Mister IKEA’s dinner. Maybe.

Our very fast skating lady won another prize. 

And a man went down a hill so fast they gave him a prize too. 

And he only had one ski. And he did not fall over and crash.  Good for us. 



Last night we watched the last of the lady detective in Dublin program. 

But we did not see any of our own cousins. Anywhere. Oh well. 

So Craig will have to find a brand new detective program for us to watch together. 

Maybe it will be one of Mister Tom’s programs. 


Wednesday, 9 February 2022

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty Five

We got up very early this morning.

And it was our do not go to work Wednesday.

But Zita had to go downtown to her make her beautiful store to get her hair all beautiful again.

But she had to go very early. Oh dear.

And Niamh was up early too. 

Because today was her work at the lovely store day. And she walked there. All by herself.

It was not so cold outside today.



And Craig did not have even a little sleep in.

Because today was the day the nurse came to put a new bandage on his foot.

But it was not Nurse Jesse or Nurse Amanda. It was another Nurse. 

He was not so good as Nurse Jesse. So I stayed with Craig. Just in case. Ha. Good for me.

When Zita came home from downtown she brought a very long croissant.

And it was a croissant from a bake delicious things bakery. And it was a from France bakery. 

So it was a very very delicious croissant. And Craig gave me a crunchy end. 

Because we are friends. Ha. That was a tasty treat.

Before the Mister Nurse came here Zita and I were building the box from Mister IKEA’s store.

I was a very big help. 



Being a big help is my very favourite job. It is known.

And after the Nurse left Zita and I went for our long lunchtime walk. 

I like lunchtime walks because it is not all dark outside at lunchtime. 

Walks in the very dark are not as nice as in the daytime walks. It is known.

When I got home I was a bit soggy again. Oh well. 

Craig and I had a very big cinnamon bun from that from France bakery. 

That was Craig’s lunch. Ha.

After our lunch Zita and the black car had to go and do lots off important errands.

They had to get some books for Niamh’s university and look at beautiful tiles for the downstairs bathroom. 

She took her cinnamon bun with her. 

So she would not starve all away when she was doing her errands. 

Zita and the go fast car were gone a long time.

So I had a nice relax this afternoon and minded Craig when he read his book. That was an easy job. 

When Zita got home I stayed in the kitchen in case she needed my help making dinner.

Sometimes things fall down on to the floor.

And I have to get them right away before Zita slips on them and falls down and gets hurt. That is an important job. 

Then it was time for the go fast car to find Niamh and bring her back home.

For our dinner. We had spaghettis for our dinner.

And I got some of Zita’s own made delicious sauce on top of my dinner. Ha.

Then it was time for Niamh's squeaky clean bath. 

And she had make you smell beautiful powder right in the bathtub. Ha. 

After Zita and I played Rope it was time for our detective program. 

So I got my own pillow and had my nap in the den with Craig and Zita. 

Tuesday, 8 February 2022

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty Four

We did not have a very nice sleep in today.

Because it was a very busy day.

Except for Craig. He listened to his book right under the covers of the comfy bed. 

And he stayed there until nearly lunchtime. My goodness me.

Zita drove Niamh to her nice university this morning.

Because now everybody can go back to see all their friends right at the university. Not just on their computers.

And today is her favourite all about movies class. Ha. 

Maybe she will go and have some tasty treats with her university friends. That is a good idea. 

When Craig got up he had some of Mister Paul’s croissants.

But he made too many again.

So I had to help him. Again. That is an easy job.

I did not go for a lunchtime walk because I was a bit too sore. 

So Craig gave me a little bit of my do not be sore medicine. Ha. That was a good idea.

And then I just stayed in the living room and kept Craig company until he made his lunchtime toast.

Then we went into the den for our together extra toast. 

This afternoon Zita had to go downtown to that other rascal ladies office. To find some mail to bring home. 

So after I had my own lunch I had a very nice nap on my comfy kitchen rug. 

We had a very nice quiet day today.

When Zita got back home she had Niamh too.

Because she found her at the nice university. 

And when they got home it was just the very time for our before dinnertime walk. 

And it was not even very dark. But I had to get all dressed up. 

Because it is a bit messy outside. 

And when we got home I was a bit messy too.

But I got very delicious cheese on top of my first dinnertime. Ha.

Then we had sausages for our dinner.

But Niamh could not have dinner with us.

Because she had to have a meeting with Miss Emily and Tarryn and Mister Holden. To make sure everybody votes for him.

Those are always very long meetings.

Then it was time to watch our detectives. 

Last night Niamh and Tarryn and Miss Sash went to the store to get tasty things.

So they could make everybody giant delicious ice cream desserts. With whipped cream too. Ha. 

Maybe we will have tasty treats tonight. Maybe. 




Monday, 7 February 2022

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty Three

We did not have a sleep in this morning because it was go back to work Monday.

But Zita and I had a nice breakfast and looked out the watching window.

It was too cold to go for a nice good morning walk.

So we went to work instead.

After a while when Craig was all dressed and awake I had to help him with some breakfast muffins.

Then Niamh came upstairs so Craig had his another coffee and even more muffins. Ha.

So I had lots of muffins for my second breakfast. Ha.

And then Zita came in the living room too.

So everybody was there beside me right in our living room. 



Except for my friend Emmet. He is still in way far away Cork. Too bad for us.

Then all of a sudden everybody went back to work. Me too. 

At lunchtime it was nearly not cold at all.



So we went for a very nice lunchtime walk. Just Zita and me. Ha.

Two boys got even more prizes for us today.



For going way too fast down a mountain and not crashing into anything. 

And other people got a prize for jumping off a mountain with only very fast skis. 

And not even any fly like a bird wings. Oh my goodness me.



That is a silly game. 

Last night after everybody was all fast asleep I talked to Mister Saint Newton. 

Mister Saint Newton never has to go too sleep. He is way too busy helping all his dog friends. 

He said my cousin Mati got to heaven without getting lost at all.

And all of Mister Gary’s long time ago Bouviers were right there to say hello. 

So he has lots of friends right away. That is good. 

Then I went to fast asleep. 

After our walk Zita and I went back to work in our lovely cosy office. 

I have a very big very comfy rug there. Just for me. Ha. 

But this afternoon I was very busy.

Because Mister Paul came to have tasty croissants with Craig and then he fixed all the long lights in the kitchen. Ha.

That was good. 

And even before I was back to fast fast asleep Miss Sash came to my house.

To help Niamh make he big bed room all neat and tidy again. Ha. 

My goodness that was a lot of visitors for me to mind. 

So I had another nice nap. Ha. 

Then we had pastas and green beans for our dinner and Miss Sash too.

I had some extra green beans too.

Then it was time to watch our very fast people and our lady detective program too.

 


Sunday, 6 February 2022

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty Two

It was sleep in Sunday and even Zita had a sleep in.

But not such a big sleep in as I had. Ha.

And when I was fast asleep Zita made some delicious muffins. 

And I got up on the big bed to keep Craig comfy warm when Zita went to the grocery store. Good for us.

And when Zita got home Craig was nearly all dressed. 

So we had a together breakfast and we had Zita’s own made muffins. Ha. That was nice.

But then we were all very sad. Oh my goodness me.

Because Mister Gary told us that my big cousin Mister Mati went to heaven last night. Oh dear me.



But now our friend Mister Gary is very very sad. So are we. 

He and Mister Mati had their very own boat.



So they could go together sailing. 

I knew Cousin Mati even when I was very young. 

He used to come and visit me in my own side yard. Oh dear me.

But now his leg is not way too sore anymore. And now he can run faster than the wind again. 

Because in heaven nothing hurts anymore. 

And there are lots of tasty treats. Even bacons on top of everything. That is a good idea. 

But then it was time for me to help Zita make brand new things for the bathroom in the basement.

But because we got them from Mister IKEA’s store we had to make them ourselves.

Sometimes it is good to have an important job to do.

Then you cannot remember to be so sad. 

And I was a very big help. Zita told me so. 


Zita used the little just a bit noisy machine. But I was very brave. Ha. Zita said so. 

When we finished making the first thing Zita and I went for our afternoon all over walk. 

It was still very cold outside. So we got all dressed up. So we would not just be frozen.

And when we got home it was time for Zita to go to tea with some of her lady friends. 

So I stayed here to mind Craig and Niamh and have my afternoon nap. Ha. 

When Zita was back home we had another box to build for the basement.

But Mister Mat can not come to our house tomorrow.

Because his helper got sick and has to stay at his own home for a while. Oh well. 

We had own made pizzas for our dinner tonight. 

And I helped Zita make them. So I got tasty treats. 

After dinner it was time to watch our detective program. 

A lady lawyer in far away Dublin. Ha. 

Maybe we will see our cousins. Maybe. 





Saturday, 5 February 2022

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty One

I had a little sleep in this morning.

But Zita did not. And when she got up the bunny rabbit was there. In our front yard.

And it was having its breakfast. 



There are berries on the bushes and they are for bunny rabbits. Oh my goodness. I did not know that.

It must be a very smart bunny rabbit. Because it is not frozen at all. That is good.

Zita said it is a very polite bunny rabbit. 

I did not see it because I was fast asleep beside my friend Craig. 

Then when Niamh was all awake Zita took her to find Tarryn downtown where all the silly trucks are.

And the go fast car took Niamh and Tarryn to the lovely store. 

Then Zita came home and Craig and I were all awake. Ha.

Then it was time for Craig to talk to his old friends on the computer. 

He had his sticky bun breakfast in the den. 

But I could help him because I am an old friend too. Ha. Good for me.

One of our ladies won a prize for being a very very fast skater. 



And a man won for going as fast as could be down a very very bumpy hill and not falling down. Ha. 

All the very fast people from everywhere are in way way way far away China. To be very fast. 

Maybe they will have the very tasty from China food. Just like us. 

Maybe lots of egg rolls. They are my favourite. Ha. 

Sometimes Craig and I have them for our together lunchtime. 

After my lunchtime nap it was time for our lovely before dinnertime walk. 

It was a bit too cold today.

So Zita and I had to get all our toasty warm clothes on. 



Even our boots. Oh well. 

I was very excited to go. Because it was not even a bit dark. Ha. 

I do not like going for walks in the very dark. 

My nice Doctor Waller said I do not see so well in the dark anymore. Oh well. 

It is only Craig and Zita and I for dinner tonight.

Because Niamh is going to Linsey’s house to watch the fast people on the television. 

And have an own made dinner too. 

So we will have an early dinner. 

Then we will watch the detectives or the fast people. 

Or maybe both. Maybe. 




Friday, 4 February 2022

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty

We did not go for a good morning walk this morning.

Because last night when everybody was fast asleep there was more too much snow.

So Zita and I just had our together breakfast and then it was time to be very busy with our rascal ladies work.

When Niamh was all awake she went to Miss Tarryn’s apartment so she could study for her university classes.

Tonight she is going out to dinner with Mister Tristan and his friends. 

At a nice restaurant. Not just a too many chip restaurant. Oh my goodness me. 

I do not know these people. I think she should take me with her. To be her very best minder. 

I am alway a very polite party dog. 

Zita said I was the very best party dog in the whole world. That is true. 

But I do not think there is lots of room in Mister Tristan’s little car. Too bad for them.

When Craig was all awake we had a sticky bun breakfast.

And then Zita came in to ask him a question.

So when they were finished talking he had his next too much coffee we had round toasts too. With jams. 

So I had two together breakfasts with my friend Craig. That was a tasty surprise.

Them my break time was over so I went back to my rascal ladies job. 

At lunchtime I went into my side yard so I could mind Zita when she moved the too much snow.


Then we came in so we could get all warm again. 



And so Zita could make her Irish tea. 

Craig kept me company until I was all dry again. 

Then we remembered that it was my lunchtime.

So Craig looked in the refrigerator and he found some smelly cheese.

The very very tasty smelly cheese from way far away France. 

And he put some on top of my lunch. Ha. That was a very tasty lunch.

Then it was time for my after lunchtime nap. Right on my comfy kitchen rug. 

Then Zita came in and woke me up.

Because she was all finished her rascal ladies work and it was time for our before dinner walk. 

But I did not want to get all my boots and my coat on today. 

So we decided that if I did not want to go I did not have to go.

Because I am old enough to make up my own mind. Ha. 

When you get old like Craig and me you do not have to do just because things anymore. It is our rule. 

So we talked to my friend Emmet in his little very far away very little apartment. We talked for a long time.

Right on our own dinning room table. 

But only Craig and Zita and me will be here for our together dinner tonight.

Because Niamh is going to a nice table cloths restaurant and Emmet will still be in way far away Cork. 

We had our own made tasty stew. It was the takes a very long time to cook stew. 

But it makes the kitchen a very delicious smelling place to have my nap. 

After dinnertime we watched the nice detective from far away Germany.

So I had my detective time nap. I have my very own pillow in the den. That is good.

Then we went to bed. I have another pillow in our big bedroom. 

Pillows are my favourite. 




Thursday, 3 February 2022

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Seventy Nine

I did not have such a very good day today. 

It was our back to work day. 

But we were so busy we could not go for a good morning walk. Too bad for me.

And I slept right through my together breakfast with Craig. Oh goodness me.

Then when Niamh was awake she said she was going for a walk with Miss Sash.

Because it was not even cold outside.



And I thought I was going too. So I was very excited.

But when Miss Sash came she was in her Jeep and it was not an around here walk. 

So I could not go.



Then I was a bit sad so I went back to our rascal ladies office for a nap.

It is always nice to have a nap when you are a bit sad. 

Because when you are all awake there is something new for you. Like next coffee tasty snacks. Ha.

But then when Zita and I went for our lunchtime walk before we even got past the go fast car the rascal ladies called.



And all of a sudden we had to go back into the house.

And I still had my outside boots on. Oh my goodness me. That is not so very nice.



Then right after Zita fixed everything we tried again.

This time we went the other way. And we walked fast.



So the rascal ladies work could not find us. Ha. That was a good idea.

When we got back to our house it was time for my lunchtime. 

And Craig found me some not so very used bacon and he put on top of my lunch.

But I only ate all the tasty bacon. Ha.

Then I had my afternoon nap on my comfy kitchen rug. 

That was a good idea because this was a no so much barking afternoon.

Because Niamh had her on the computer class this afternoon. 

But when it was all over it was make our dinner time. Ha. 

So I went into the kitchen to help Zita and I found my own dinner. With pumpkins on top.

So I had an early first dinner.

Last night I was so tired after our detective program I forgot to have my before bedtime dessert. Oh dear me. 

We had the tasty from Mexico food tonight. 

With lots of chicken and cooked in a very big pan vegetables. 

Then we watched the from Germany detective. And had ice cream. Ha. 

Then it was our bedtime again. 

Sometimes it takes a very long time before it is our bedtime. I do not know why. Oh well.

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Seventy Nine

Today was our do not go to work day 

So we had lots of time to go for our good morning walk.

And when we got back home Craig was getting all dressed.

And it was still early. 

So Craig and I had a sticky bun breakfast. 

And then we looked out our watching window. 

Nearly all the snow on my street was gone. 

The take the snow away machines came in the middle of the night.

But we closed all our doors so I did not hear them. Ha. 

But they always leave too much snow in our driveway.

So Zita went outside to move it away. 

Because it was not even all freezing outside today. Ha. That is silly.



And the Professor Jill was outside too. So they had a long chat. 

Then a nice nurse came to make Craig a new bandage. But only one. 

Because he has a just for Craig sock on his other foot. 

Then Niamh was finished writing for her university class so Zita drove her to the lovely store. 

I stayed here and Craig and I had toasty warm croissant. That was a good treat. 

After lunchtime Zita was making my toes all neat and tidy. 

But she made one toe too neat and there was blood all over the kitchen floor.



And it was my own blood too. Oh dear. 

But Zita went to the store to get some special for toes stuff 

And we fixed it up right away. That was good. 

Then she went downstairs to the basement 

So she could have lots of room to make a beautiful blind for the bedroom. 

Craig stayed with me in the kitchen until I was fast asleep.

Then he went in the den to read a brand new book. 

It is detective story book. But there are not any pictures in it. Oh well. 

When Zita was a finished the band new blind it was beautiful. Ha. 

Then Zita and the go fast car went to look at more things for the bathroom and then she went and found Niamh.

So we could have our together used lasagna dinner. That was a good idea. 

Then it was time for our detective program. And hot chocolates too. Ha.

Day Three Thousand Four Hundred and Seventy Eight

Zita and I had another vacation day. Ha.

But we did not have a sleep in.

Because it was beautiful and sunny outside. And it was not so cold today.

So we went for another long good morning to everything walk. Ha.

And I got all snowy again. Ha. Good for me.



But when we got home my friend Niamh was up early too. 

Because it was time for her early class about music in the movies. That is her favourite class.

And Craig did not have a sleep in either. So we had a Mister IKEA’s sticky bun for our breakfast.

Then a lady came with just for Craig socks. 

But only one was all right. Oh dear. 

So the ladies are going to have to find a better sock. 

And when she left Craig had his another coffee and we had round toasts too. 

So Craig and I had two together breakfasts today. Ha. That is a good day. 

Then the black car took Zita away to do some important errands. 

To find beautiful things for the in the basement bathroom. 

So I had my morning nap. 

But it was not such a long nap today because I was very busy all morning. 

Today Miss Saint Bridgid told everybody in way far away Ireland that it is springtime.  I do not know why. 



Maybe because of their always wrong clocks. Maybe. 

And in way way far away China they have a brand new year. And it is a tiger year. 



That is not so good. Tigers are not even a bit friendly. Oh my goodness me. 

And we have very noisy helicopters all over. Looking at the too noisy trucks. Oh my. 

But the present man brought us a very big bag full of my own tasty food. Ha. That was a good idea.

Today Niamh went out for a delicious lunchtime with Mister Tristan. In his little car.


I do not know Mister Tristan. 



So I watched Niamh until I could not see her anymore. 

I only loudly barked a bit. 

So everyone would know that Niamh has a fierce guarder dog. Good for me. 

When Zita got home she had brand new cloth to make new blinds.

Because Mister IKEA’s blinds did not work in our house.

Because my friend Craig could not reach them. 

So Zita is going to make our own. Just for us. 

For her lunchtime treats Niamh went to a restaurant that before she only saw in the late late at night. 

She said the food was tastier when it is late at night.  Oh well.

Mister Paul came for a visit this afternoon. And he brought tasty croissants for us. Ha.

And we had very very tasty food for our dinner.

Because we had our own made lasagna. 

Our delicious lasagna has cheese all inside it. Ha. And pastas too. 

Miss Tarryn came to our house for dinner.

Because her apartment is too noisy.

Because of the way too noisy silly trucks. That is not all right. 

Some ladies downtown stood right in front of some of those silly trucks. 



And made them go all away. Ha. That was a good idea. 

Tonight we watched the nice detective from far away Germany.

There was not even one smelly cow in that program. Ha.

Maybe you cannot have cows in far away Germany. Maybe.
