Day One Thousand Two Hundred and Thirty Three

It is a not so busy Sunday.

Zita had to get up early to talk to way far away. Because her father had to go to a nice hospital. Last night. Only for a little while. 

But he all home now. He taked to Zita on the telephone. That is good.

Niamh and I went for a nice walk. She was not all fast awake. I was. Ha. Too bad for her. 

Zita made the very special own made peach nearly a pie. But with a way crunchy top. For our lunch. It is Emmet and Niamh's favourite. 

Niamh likes the crunchy bits. And Emmet only likes the peachy insides. That is good. 

Emmet is nearly all finished with his very long story for Professor Jill. That is good. 

He has to tell everybody all the fat books he read. Each one. I do not know why.

All afternoon Zita and Niamh looked at all the nice universities. On their computers. 

Niamh does not know which university she would like to go to. It is way confusing. Niamh told me so. Oh dear. 

I do not like confusing. The rules about barking are confusing. It is known. It is hard being a dog. 

Tonight we are going to have own made pizza. From the special tasty food store. Because of the very important football game. On the television. 

With our very own team. Ha. Good for us. Maybe they will win. Maybe.

We are going to eat in the den. All of us. Even me. 

We are going to have lots of party food. Just no cheese. Too bad for me. 

Just chips. And cheesy popcorn. And all fizzy drinks. And pretzels for Emmet. Oh well.

Day One Thousand Two Hundred and Thirty Two

I had a nice day. I was a big help. All day.

It is not so warm today. Ha. Because the trees are all empty. 

Last night Zita and Niamh and I looked at keep you all toasty warm coats. For my friend Niamh. On Niamh's way fast little computer. In the den. We found just the right one. Ha.

The present man will bring it to our house. That is good. 

We were the only people in the den. Not way too many people. Like the way too full store. Ha. Good for us.

This afternoon I helped Zita put more shiny lights on our trees. I sat in the gold car and guarded everybody. It is my favourite job. It is known. Dogs like to be a big help. 

Zita and I went for a walk. Before the dark night came to our street. And all the scary things hide in the bushes.

We saw Jamie and Professor Jill.  She came back to her house. The dangerous train did not fall all over and kill her. That is good. 

Then Zita went to talk to Mister God. At our big church. Where all the way fast bats live. 

We made the house all spic and span today. 

Niamh used the very noisy make the floors all clean machine. I just stayed on the new fluffy duvet. In the big bedroom. It was just all quiet there. 

Craig had to clean all the old little Roman soldiers. Ha. Too bad for him. 

He went to his old friends breakfast today. Zita and I did not take him there. 

We were too sleepy. He came home all by himself. He did not get lost st all. That is good.

People get lost if their nice dogs are not there to sniff the way home. People do not have way good noses. Too bad for them. 

Before dinner Niamh and Zita went to the empty place. Where all the cows live. To practice not hitting anything with your car. And going backwards not so fast. That is good. 

Day One Thousand Two Hundred and Thirty One

Zita and I went for a nice walk. This morning. It was all warm outside. Before the windy rain came here.

The trees are all empty. It should not be warm with empty trees. That is not right.

Then Zita drove Emmet to his nice university. 

Today is Emmet's stay all day and eat donuts at the university day. And read old Roman stories. And talk about the way old mountain people. 

Zita and Craig were way busy today. Writing. I was a big help. On the big bed with the new fluffy comfy duvet.

After lunch Zita put some of the brand new shiny just for Christmas lights on our lovely trees. Outside. On the patio. 

I stayed in the gold big car. To watch everything. And the awful squirrels. I hate squirrels. 

I was a way big help. The squirrels were too afraid to come out. Because I was there. Ha. Good for me.

Zita and I went for a walk in the windy rain. I had my brand new just for me keep me dry coast on. It was a present. Zita got it for me. In way far away Ireland. Ha.

Only my legs and tummy were all soggy. Craig and I stayed in the kitchen. Until I was all dry as toast. 

We had peanut butter toasts. For a special treat. 

Zita had to go for a nice walk with my friends Jamie and Zorro. Because Professor Jill went not so far away. On the dangerous train. Oh dear. 

Professor Mister Carter does not know how to take nice dogs for a walk. So Professor Jill asked Zita. That is nice.

They will be all soggy. When they get home. It is a soggy day. Professor Mister Carter will have to make them all dry. Ha. 

Professor Jill will be all home tomorrow. That is good.

Zita is going out to dinner with Doctor Susan tonight. Maybe we will have pasta. 

That is what we always have when Zita does not make our tasty dinner. Or Mr. Tony's pizza. Or lots of tasty Chinese food. It is known.

Niamh went to get a brand new keep you toasty warm coat today. It is a sing happy birthday present. 

It is not her sing happy birthday day. If she does not have a toasty warm coat she get all frozen up. Like an ice cube

Then she could not sing the happy birthday song. So she has to get it too soon. Oh well. 

She could not get it today. There were way too many people. In the store. And too many coats. Oh dear. 

Maybe she will get all frozen tonight. Oh dear. That is not right.

Day One Thousand Two Hundred and Thirty

We had a nice walk this morning. All the snow went away. That is good.

It is not a nice day. Just all full of clouds and nearly real rain. 

It is a quiet day.

We did not have toasts today. We had toasted bagels instead. We did not have any tasty jam. Oh well.

Craig and Zita went out for a long time. I guarded Emmet. All by myself.

When Craig and Zita came home they had lots of brand new just for merry Christmas decorations. 

And brand new make the patio all beautiful lights. And giant red shiny balls to put on our beautiful trees. To scare the awful squirrels all away. 

The wind will blow them all around and they will squish the squirrels all up. Ha. It is known.

I saw my friends the very big crows today. On the trees across the street. Crows hate squirrels too. That is good.

The nice present man brought a big box of secret presents. Ha. That is good. After lunch.

Craig's hockey team won again last night. Ha. 

I did not watch the hockey game. I had a comfy nap instead. On the big bed. With the new fluffy duvet.

Niamh has to teach at the dance place tonight. She can not have her tasty dinner with us. Too bad for her.

Zita and I went for a nice walk with my friend Jamie and Professor Jill. In the dark. 

I had to stay in the kitchen. With Craig. Because I was a little bit all soggy. 

Craig had just popcorn. Not for dinner. I had my dinner. It did not have any little bits of cheese on top. At all. Oh well.  Too bad for me. 

Zita is going to Professor Jill's house. To feed Jamie and Zorro. So they will not just all starve. When Professor Jill is away. That is good.

Day One Thousand Two Hundred and Twenty Nine

The gold big car would not go anywhere this morning. It was too tired. I think. Oh dear. That is not right. 

Zita had to get Doctor Susan's way fat car. To take Niamh and Julia to the very early dance a lot practice. 

And Emmet to his nice university. So he could go to his read way old Roman stories class.

Craig and I stayed here to make the coffees. 

A nice man came in a truck. With lots of lights. He had to jump on the gold big car. To wake it all up. Oh dear.

The nice man had a car just like ours. He liked to talk. Zita said so. 

Then the gold big car was all fine and wide awake again. That is good.

I was all awake. Nobody had to jump on me. That is good.

Craig and Zita were way busy today. Writing lots and lots. I helped. A lot. 

I did not get the new fluffy duvet. Oh well.

Craig and Zita put it on the big comfy bed. Oh well.

I get to borrow it at night. When they are all fast asleep. Ha. Good for me.

Craig got more black music machines. From the nice man. In the little truck. 

Craig gave him a way little shiny black thing. With coloured strings. He was way happy. I do not know why. 

We have way too many music machines. It is known. 

We got a secret present today. Ha. It was not for me. I do not know who it is for. Craig hid it all away. It is a secret. It is known.

Emmet is nearly all finished his very long story. For Professor Jill. Then Craig will read it. 

Emmet does not like reading his very own stories. I do not know why. So Craig reads them for him. Ha.

Niamh's friend Miss Rowan is coming to my house tonight. To have a tasty dinner. With us. And me too. 

Zita and I went for a not so long walk today. Before it was all too dark outside. 

I do not like going for nice walks in the dark. Except when we go to the outside coffee store. Because I get treats there. Ha. 

Day One Thousand Two Hundred and Twenty Eight

When we got up there was snow on the ground. All over. On the cars too. Oh dear.

Then Zita drove Niamh and Julia to dance a lot. 

Julia's little car does not have do not get stuck in the snow tires. So she can not drive the little car. It will get all stuck. And fall over. Or crash. Oh dear.

Mister Bill borrowed Zita's gold big car. Because his litte truck had to go to be all fixed up. Before we are all full of too much snow.  Oh dear.

Craig was a pretend Scotsman today. Ha.

He only had porridge cookies for lunch. I do not like porridge. I like cheesy croissants for lunch. Oh well. Too bad for me.

Scotsmen do not have so much tasty food. Just porridge. To keep them all warm. And warm dresses. Even for Scotsmen. Because it is not nice and cosy warm in Scotland. 

In France they have tasty food. And lots of croissants and lots and lots of cheeses. And very tasty desserts. And no bagpipes. Ha. 

I am from France. A long time ago. Ha. Good for me. 

Zita is going out to dinner with her lady friends. The fix your body all up when you are way too sore lady is going. And our friend Kathy.

The snow went all away. It is not so cold today. That is good.

Day One Thousand Two Hundred and Twenty Seven

It was a nice quiet day.

Zita and I went for a nice long walk with my friend Jamie and professor Jill. That was nice. 

Then we had very crunchy toasts. Ha.

Zita took Emmet to his nice university early in the morning. Before our toasts. 

Craig was just busy writing new stories. 

Niamh was at her dance a lot school and Zita was writing to all the rascal ladies.

Zita can not talk so loud. The nasty cold stole her loud voice. That is not right. 

Because everybody was all busy I guarded the house. And chased away the awful squirrels. Again. 

And I guarded Zita. On the comfy bed. 

Craig and I had used pizza for our lunch. Then he had to write some more. Oh well.

We only played catch the ball a lot times this morning. Not lots and lots. Too bad for me. 

Emmet finished his long story. All about people who would not tell the truth. Even when they were all wrong. Oh dear. That is not right. 

It is Emmet's only first try. Craig aways reads them to make them beautiful. Then Zita will read it too. Then Emmet will just all finish it. That is good. 

I will help. I always help Zita when she works at the desk in our bedroom. I guard the room. I have my own duvet in the big bedroom. Just for me. Ha. 

The Russian people gave a brand new puppy to the fierce French policemen. It came on a big aeroplane. Not a way dangerous fall all over Russian train. That is good. 

The Russian's were sad because the very brave dog got killed. So they gave them their very own puppy. That is good.

Now he can learn to be a policeman's helper dog. And to learn French. And just eat tasty croissants for breakfast. And lots of cheeses. 

That is what they eat in France. And too thin pancakes. And way little coffees. Ha. 

Day One Thousand Two Hundred and Twenty Six

It is a quiet Sunday. 

But it is not so quiet outside. 

There was a way important football game today. Way up on the busy street. There were too many cars. And too many people. All over our street.

The policemen put letters on their car. Then they have to give away all their money. Because they just left their cars everywhere. Too bad for them.

Sometimes the big take your car away trucks go by my house. Taking cars away to the car jail. Oh dear. Our cars would not like that. 

We had own made tasty muffins for our lunch. And cheese. I always get the extra little bits. When lunch is all over. Good for me. I like cheese. 

Zita and Niamh went to the cow farm. In the gold big car. Where it is all empty. 

So Niamh could practice not running into everything. That is good. You should not run into things with your car. It is known.

Then they went to find a very warm coat for the way too cold. 

Not a way too short coat. 

Niamh has lots of too short coats. If you have only way too short coats your bum gets all frozen and falls off. Oh dear. That is not right. Craig told me. 

That is why I have my Scotsman's coat. Zita made it for just me. Ha. 

They are going to find a nice long keep you cosy warm coat. Ha.

It is not so warm today. Just all sunny. 

We watched the nice policeman last night. He has a little dog. He is not a policeman's helper dog. 

He is a guard his house and the little baby dog. 

I guard our house too. I would be a good policeman's helper dog. I can be very fierce. When I want to. It is known. 

There were squirrels fighting. On my tree. In my garden. That is not right. I got in trouble. 

I do not like sitting in the kitchen so much. It is known. 

Our football team won. Craig and I were all surprised. 

There are lots of noisy people on our street. Looking for their cars. Oh dear. 

Our team is going to the giant football game next week. They are going to the way too cold football game party. 

They have horses at the party. And pancakes. And way cold people. Ha. 

Day One Thousand Two Hundred and Twenty Five

I had to get up way early today.

Niamh and her dance a lot friends drove to not so far away Kingston. In a car. All by themselves. Before it was even all nice and sunny outside. Oh dear.

They went to visit the very old university. It is the Queen's university. I do not know why. 

Zita and I went back to our cosy bed. Zita had a long sleep in. 

Craig's cold caught Zita. When she was all fast asleep. Now she can not talk too loud. Oh dear. That is not right. 

Sleep ins are good. When the nasty colds catch you. 

This morning Craig want to his old friend breakfast all by himself. I had to stay here. 

Because Craig asked me to guard Zita and Emmet. Because they were all fast asleep. I am the best guarding dog. Craig told me. 

He came home all filled up with tasty not very good for you food. He did not get lost. On his way home. That is good. 

It was not so warm today. Because Winter is Coming. It is known. 

Last night on the television we saw lots and lots of windy snow. With sliding cars all over. 

It was not here. That is good. 

We watched the old detectives last night. Then we watched another detective. With an old old fast car. 

Craig used to have a way old car too. It was too fast. 

He had it for a long long time. It was way loud. It liked to visit all the gas stations. I do not know why. Zita told me. 

Then he got the silver little car. It is not so fast. That is good. 

We had the special extra cheesy pizza. From the pizza store. Zita went and got it for us.

When Niamh got home she had to go off right away. To take care of two little girls. From her dance a lot class. For money. Real money. You need real money to go to far away universities. It is known.

Maybe we will watch the television tonight. In the den. With the comfy rug. Ha. Good for me.

I had a lazy day.

Except for all the awful squirrels. I had to chase them all away. From my side yard. All day. I hate squirrels. It is known. 

When everybody was busy. I guarded the house.

Today is Emmet's spend all day at the university day. So he can drink his tea and eat donuts for his lunch. And practice speaking old Roman. 

Then Craig and Zita went out. To find the gold big car. At Mister Mike's store. Now it has all its do not get stuck in the snow tires on. That is good.

Maybe soon it will go all full of snow on our street. And we would be all stuck. If we did not have our special do not get stuck tires. 

Or maybe just slide all away into the pond. Sometimes the silly cars do this. I saw them. From my watching window. Oh dear. 

Craig came home so we could have our peanut butter sandwich lunch. And play catch the ball. Ha. Good for me.

Zita had to get me some brand new tasty just for me food. That is good. 

Last night Zita was way late. Her rascal ladies's friend's car would not go anywhere. At all. It just sat there. That is not right. 

The take your car away truck had to come to get them. Then the nice man drove Zita to our house. In the giant truck. With scary full of flashing lights on top. 

I did not bark at it. Craig was there too. So I did not bark. Then we went to bed. Because it was way late at night. 

Zita's friend does not know Mister Mike. Too bad for her. 

Craig's hockey team won last night. Ha.

We are having something very tasty tonight. For our dinner. I can smell it. It is inside the shiny oven. Where Zita makes the just for breakfast muffins. Ha.

It was not so warm today. Just all windy again. So my ears go all flappy when we go for our nice walks. That is good.

I had a nearly busy day.

Niamh did not go to her school today. She had to find brand new costumes for her dance a lot classes. For all the little dancers.

It is just rainy today. And not even cold at all. Just lots of windy rainy. I was just a bit soggy. 

Zita and Craig watched a different detective. Last night. He lived in way far away. I did not watch. I had a nice nap. 

I helped Niamh write a story. All about her. I am a way good helper. Niamh said so. 

The very fierce French policemen caught some of the nasty people. 

Then they were just all dead. But a very brave policeman's dog got killed. By a bomb. Oh dear. 

But he saved everybody. That is good. It was his job. Dogs are very good at jobs. Me too. It is known. 

I talked to Mister Saint Newton last night. When everybody was fast asleep in their cosy beds. About the very brave dog. 

Maybe Uncle Bill can give him a ride on his flying motorcycle. As a present. When he gets all up to heaven. 

Maybe they can be friends. Uncle Bill can speak French too. That is good. 

Heaven is way far away. I think it is a long long walk. With lots of sheep clouds all around.

Niamh was teaching at the dance a lot place. Until late. When she was all home she had pizza. She found it in the basement. I do not know where. Oh well.

The basement has lots of scary rooms. Full of dangerous things. And a kitchen. 

Zita and Doctor Susan went out to look for interesting things. After lunch.

But they came back. I hate squirrels.

Zita and I had a nice walk after she took Emmet to his nice university. 

When we came back Craig made the coffees and the toasts. All by himself. Ha. Good for him.

Craig and Zita had to go to Craig's mother's place. She had to get a new go not so fast chair, 

I guarded the house. 

Craig was very busy. He had to read lots and lots. Because the nice queen does not have time to read all the interesting stories. 

She has to keep the castles spic and span. And wave at all the people who visit. That is why she has helpers. Like my friend Craig. 

Emmet had to go back to his nice university. So he could read a special book. It had to stay in the new library. Because it is old. Ha. 

Craig is old too. He is not special. He is just Craig. He can go out. Not like the special book. Ha. 

Last night we watched a movie altogether. In the den. All of us. Me too. 

It was a very good story. From way far away Ireland. It was made in beautiful all drawn by real people pictures. 

It was about a little girl who was a magic seal. And her big brother. And their dog. 

The dog was very very brave. And big. And furry. He found everybody. When they were all lost. That is what brave dogs do. It is known.

And he took them home. Giant magic dogs helped him. That is good.

There was even an island that was really a way old God. And lots of music. And stones that talked. And played the music. Ha. 

There was even a flat drum. Just like my friend Emmet's. It is in his comfy bedroom. 

Everybody in the story talked just like all our cousins. I understood everybody. Ha. Good for me.

The very brave dog only talked dog. That is good. I only talk dog too. Good for us.

It was a way good movie. We should watch more movies with brave dogs. Not movies all about scary Vikings. Or dragons. They are too scary. It is known. 

Zita brought me a brand new ball. It was not a catch ball. It was a chew it up ball. But it was not so strong as me. I ate some pieces right away. Oh well.

There were two dog in our park. They were fighting. I saw them. From my watching window. That is not right. I was very upset. 

Craig said I should in the dog police. Because I like everything to be all right.

Nice dogs should not fight. Unless someone nasty is trying to hurt your friend. Then you have to be way fierce. And bite them all up. 

Just like the nice French policeman's very brave dog. 

Maybe he is helping all the very fierce soldiers in France catch all the nasty people. That is good. His policeman friend will help too. Craig told me. 

Our friend Lee came to my house. Before our tasty dinner. So Emmet can help her with how to talk old Roman class.

Zita took Niamh to get shot. By the nice nurse. So the nasty flu can not catch her. Last year it caught her all up. Niamh does not like being shot. Oh well. 

Everybody is going to watch a movie tonight. In the den. All of us. That is good.
