Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Fifty Nine

It is sleep in Sunday. 

But Zita and I were up early.

Because I had a eating the fall down berries sick tummy again. Too bad for me. 

Then Craig had to watch the little fast cars. So I kept him company on the big comfy bed.

Until he was wide awake. Ha. Good for me.

Then doctor Susan came over to drink tea and to answer questions on the computers. 

We had the not real toasts from France for our lunchtime. Oh well.

We talked to my friend Emmet right on the dining room table. Ha.

Very soon he is going to an very important meeting. 

At the Harvard University. It is not even in our country.

He is going to stay in a nice hotel. With fat pillows. For lots of nights. 

His two nice Professors are going too. 

They are going on an aeroplane. Oh dear. 

Emmet does not like aeroplanes so much. Oh dear. 

Then the expensive clothes store called Niamh. 

Because they want to talk to Niamh again. About a new job. 

At their big downtown store. Ha. That is good.

Then a man came to our house with even more make music speakers. For Craig. 

They are not even very small. Oh dear.

They are sandwich speakers. That is silly. They are not tasty for lunchtime sandwiches. 

Too bad for us.

And Lee came over to help Niamh make tasty treats. For everybody. Ha.

But it got way to hot and smelly. So we had to open all the windows. Oh dear.

So there are no tasty treats today. Too bad for us.

Today is all the scotsmen’s Mister Saint Andrew’s day. 

But we did not have scotsmen’s porridge for breakfast or listen to the noisy bagpipes. Ha.

Maybe Craig forgot. Ha. 

Because he is very old. Ha.

We saw the very fierce from Scotland cows on the television today.

They have giant pointy horns. 

But they are so so big as my friends the buffalos. Ha. 

Last night we watched a new from way far away detective. She is a lady detective. 

She does not have a nice helper dog. Just an old noisy nearly a Jeep car. Too bad for her. 

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Fifty Eight

It is Craig’s Saturday go to his old friends breakfast restaurant today.

But Zita and I did not take him today.

Because we took Professor Jill and the little dog for a nice walk instead. 

So Professor Jill can talk to Zita. That is good.

So Craig and Mister Paul went all by themselves. They did not just get lost. That is good.

It is Cara and Lee’s Sing Happy Birthday day today. They have the same day Birthday.

Just like Emmet and Niamh. Ha. That is silly. 

But Emmet and Niamh are not twins. That is why.

Miss Lily and Lee and Cara were at my house very early this morning. 

To get all ready to go to the famous football game. They all go to the nice university. 

Just like Craig and Zita and Emmet. Ha. That is good.

The nice university always plays the famous game against the other university. 

Emmet went to the other university too. But it does not matter. 

Because Emmet does not care so much about football. 

He is interested in very very old things and people. 

And the very old from way far away Gods. 

And their houses and their beautiful stories. 

And even maybe the Punics 

Because they had elephants. Ha. 

I like elephants. We do not have any of them in my city. 

Just sometimes all lost bears and maybe a moose. Oh well. Too bad for us.

At lunchtime there were lots and lots and lots of people on my street. 

They were even singing. But not so well. 

There were lots of police cars too. Ha. 

Zita and doctor Susan had lots of work to do today. In the living room. 

So I guarded them. All day. Good for me. 

My friend Emmet is going to talk all about his giant very important story. 

Right at Mister Saint Francis’s university. Everybody can come and listen. 

Craig and Zita and Niamh are not going. Because it is in far away Antigonish. 

And I cannot go on the the way way slow train all by myself. It is the rule. Oh dear. 

Too bad for my friend Emmet.

Maybe tonight we will watch the detectives with the fierce Bouvier helpers. That is a good program.

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Fifty Seven

This morning Zita and I had a nice walk. We did not see Professor Jill this morning.

When we got home I did not have my tasty breakfast.

Because all my own food was gone. Oh my. That is not all right.

Craig forgot that all my food was all eaten up. By me. Oh dear.

So Zita went to my for nice dogs hospital. Before she went to the rascal ladies office. 

They had my own food already there. For me. Ha. So she brought it home. That is good.

So I did not just starve this morning. That is good.

Then Zita went all the way downtown with her go fast bicycle.

Last night everybody played the dragons game. My friend cousin Orlaith was there too.

She could see everybody right in Emmet’s in our house bedroom. Ha. That is good.

Even from way far away Galway. Ha. That was good. 

And everybody could see Emmet in his very little apartment in far away Antigonish. Ha. 

Everybody could see everybody. Even me too. 

They did not play until too late. Because of the wrong clocks in Ireland. 

Then all the ladies got dressed up. 

And went to a too many chips and beers restaurant. At Niamh’s nice university. In Miss Kenzie’s Jeep.

Because there will be the famous for her nice university football game tomorrow. Up on our busy street.

That is when people eat too much. And have sick tummies. Right on the street. 

And then the police have to take them all away. Oh dear. Too bad for them.

Miss Kenzie brought a heavy as can be chocolate cake to our house last night. 

For our very tasty dessert. Ha. That was nice. Everybody said it was very tasty. I did not have any.

Because of the chocolate. Oh well. Too bad for me.

I had a mistake this morning. There was a giant new ball in my side yard this morning.

I thought it was mine.

But is was not. Oh dear.

It was just a kick the ball giant ball. They are not so strong balls. And it just broke. Right away. 

Oh dear. But Craig said it was not my fault. That is good. I did not get in trouble. 

I do not like it when I get in trouble.  It is known. 

Then we had our lunch. That is good. And I had a nice nap. 

Niamh went to her nice university to read even more brand new stories.

And Emmet is in his little library in far away. To find lots and lots of so many books. 

And he has to read them too. Oh dear.

We watched the from way far away detectives last night. 

The police had Bouvier dogs for helpers. Lots of them. That is a good program. It is known.

Niamh and Lee and Cara and Miss Lily are playing the dragons game too. With my friend Emmet tonight. Ha. 

Everybody likes the dragons game.

We will have Mister Tony’s pizzas too. Ha.

Because Zita is going to a little restaurant with Bethany. That is very nice. 

I will mind everybody and the pizzas too. Ha. Good for me.

I had a very quiet day today. 

Because it is an everybody is busy day today. 

Zita went to the rascal ladies office with her go fast bicycle. 

Then Craig and I had toasts before he right away took Niamh to her two important meetings. In the silver little car. 

So I guarded the house. And all our rascals signs too. Ha.

When Craig and Niamh came home we had our lunch. 

But then Niamh had to go to Rima’s little apartment.

Because Rima did not know how to make her clothes clean machine work. Oh dear. That is silly.

So Miss Kenzie came to my house to take Niamh to teach Miss Rima all about the noisy machines.

Miss Kenzie has a Jeep. It is nearly a truck. But not so big. 

Tonight is the everybody comes to our house to play the dragons game night.

With my friend Emmet in far away Antigonish. And maybe our cousin Orlaith in way far away Galway.

Zita and I are going make very tasty hamburgers for everybody’s dinner tonight. Ha. And chips too.

Ha. That is good. 

We did not talk to our friend Emmet last night. 

Because he went to hear a very interesting person talk at his far away university. 

But he is going to talk to everybody tonight when they play their dragons game. 

On the very big in the basement television. That is good. 

Mister Doug came for a little visit today. With his just a bit small dog. It is a water dog. 

That is why Mister Doug has a giant cottage beside the lake. 

So his dog can be a swim in the water dog. That is nice. 

But not in in the winter. He is not an ice dog. My friend Jamie was an ice dog. Oh well. 

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Fifty Five

Zita and Niamh and I got up early today. But Craig did not. 

Because today is Niamh’s very early in the morning class and today is Zita’s do not go to work day.

So we had a nice walk. Just Zita and me.

Then another man came to talk to Zita about our beautiful trees.

Because the way way too much wind had moved them. 

And now they just might fall down. And maybe hurt somebody. 

Or break another of our own beautiful trees. Oh dear. Oh dear. Too bad for us. 

So a man has to come and take three of my beautiful trees all away. That is not so nice. 

Then Zita and I went for another nice walk with Professor Jill. And the little dog.

She is still sad. So she is not teaching everybody at the nice university this week. Oh dear. 

When we came home we had our toasts with Craig. Before everybody was all busy again.

Zita was very busy looking for important all lost papers. I could not be a big help.

So I had a nice nap instead. 

But the too much rain woke me up. So I watched everything from my watching window. It is my best job.

Then Zita had to go downtown. To look at a beautiful new rascals office. 

Because the new too small office is too small. Again. Oh dear. 

I minded Craig in the den. On the comfy rug. 

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Fifty Four

Zita and I only went for a little walk this morning.

Because it is a little all the time rain day. So we were all soggy when we got home.

And Craig and Niamh were all awake too.

Because Niamh and Miss Rima had to go out to talk to another rascal person. 

And ask them lots of questions too.

And drink tea too. Ha. 

Then Zita went to the too small again office. With her go fast bicycle. In the soggy rain. Oh dear.

I was only a soggy dog for a little while.

Because I have my very own dry as a chip towels. Ha. Good for me.

That is a good breakfast.

When we were finished I had a big nap on the comfy duvet. In the big bedroom. 

And Craig had to write a story for our nice Queen.

Because it is a soggy day outside today.

We had a very fat peanut butter and cheese sandwich for our lunchtime. 

And Craig had even more too much coffees.

Craig had to put the make the house toasty warm machine on. 

Because even his toes were too cold. Oh dear.

We played catch the ball a bit when there was no all the time rain.

We will not have an altogether dinner tonight. 

Tonight Niamh has to talk all about movies at her university. Until too late.

Maybe we will watch something new tonight. We do not have any chips. Too bad for us.

It is the fall down leafs time. Soon all the trees will be empty again. Oh dear.

So it is not so warn outside today. 

This morning Zita and I had a very nice walk. With Niamh too.

Because she did not go to sleep until way way late last night. Ha. Too bad for her.

And she had her very early in the morning class today. Ha. Too bad for her.

And it is her all day at her nice university day. Ha. Too bad for her.

Miss Tamina came to our house today. To make it all as clean as can be. With the noisy machines. 

I had a big nap on the big comfy bed. 

My friend Emmet sent us a very happy note. On the telephone. 

Mister Saint Xavier’s far away university is going to give him his very own office. Even with a door. 

And real money too. So he can teach more students. Ha. That is good. 

Craig is going to send him a beautiful picture of me. For his new office. 

So everybody will know he has a beautiful fierce minder dog. Ha. 

And then they will know me too. That is good. 

Last night Zita and Niamh put our vote for rascals giant sign back up. 

Now it will not fall down again. That is good. 

Craig and I had apple pie for our lunch. We did not have any peanut butter at all. Oh well.

Craig has to give the silver little car some more air. 

Because one of the tires is not so very round.

Maybe the air does not like the silver little car so much. Oh dear. Too bad for it. 

This afternoon Craig went out to get us some special for tasty toasts bread. 

And he went to his neat and tidy store. So now he his not very furry at all. Ha.

I guarded our house for a long time last night. All by myself.

Because Craig and Zita and Niamh had a very tasty dinner at the Mahoney’s house. 

Zita made an own made delicious cake. With cheese icing all over the top. 

And they brought it with them for the tasty dessert. 

Because you cannot go to somebody’s house for a tasty dinner if you do not bring something delicious too. 

It is the rule. Ha. That is a good rule.

We had brand new hot bagels for our lunchtime. From Mister Kettleman’s bagel store. 

But we did not talk to my friend Emmet at lunchtime today. 

Because he had to help a student write a brand new interesting story. Emmet is a good helper.

Zita put my comfy duvet on the big bed so I could have a big nap. 

The bed is a lot more comfy when my own duvet is on top. 

Niamh is very busy reading her stories for her nice university. 

She likes to read her stories in Emmet’s big bedroom. 

On the very comfy old leather lie down chair. Ha. That is nice.

Zita talked to our cousin Orlaith for a long time this afternoon. 

She is in way far away Galway. Right beside the giant dangerous ocean. 

Emmet’s far away university is beside the very same ocean. But he is not so far away. That is good.

Professor Jill came to our house this afternoon. She was very very sad.

So we made her Irish tea and chocolate biscuits too.

Mister Professor Carter did not wake up yesterday and went all the way to heaven. Oh dear.

I was very sad too. I told her that I was sad. Oh dear.

But my friends Jamie and Zorro will be there to meet him. 

Mister Professor Carter was their old friend. Even when they were just little dogs. He will not get lost. 

Because they will know where everything is. They are very friendly dogs. That is good.

Zita and Craig and Niamh were very sad too. Then Zita told Emmet so he is sad too. 

It was a sad afternoon. Oh dear. 

We are going to have an altogether dinner tonight. But not with Miss Rima.

Because she is in not very far away Toronto until tonight. Too bad for her.

So she could not go to the delicious dinner last night. At the Mahoneys. 

Mister Kirian was very surprised. 

Because Miss Rima always goes out to tasty dinners with Niamh. Oh well. Too bad for them. 

Niamh and her friend Miss Kenzie are going to get Miss Rima at the train station. In Miss Kenzie’s truck. 

So Miss Rima will not get lost. Sometimes she gets just lost going home. Oh dear. That is not all right.

Zita and I went for our nice before dinner walk. It was not a long walk.

Because we had to come home for our very tasty hamburger dinner. 

We are going to cook them outside. On our new outside stove. That is a good stove. 

All the fire does not come out the bottom in this stove. That is good.

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Fifty One

It is Saturday go to his old friends breakfast restaurant for Craig.

Zita and I did not take him today. 

We had to go for our nice walk and look at all the broken trees.

Last night we did not have any lights at all. Anywhere. But only for a while.

Niamh’s Center Building did not have any lights at all. Even now. Oh dear.

So they did not have a dance a lot night. Oh well. 

So Niamh came home to keep me company. Ha. 

But the way too much wind took some people’s cars all away. And even their whole houses. Oh dear.

Because it was the go round and round too much wind. Oh dear.

But our too much wind only broke some of our beautiful trees.

So Craig went to the restaurant all by himself. He did not get lost. That is good.

Mister Paul does not have any electricity at his little apartment. Even this morning. Oh dear. 

He had to go to the restaurant very early. To have some coffee. Ha. Too bad for him.

This morning doctor Susan came to my house to have some tea and look at her computer. Ha.

I had a nice nap. 

Because I had a sick tummy again. 

Because of all the drop on the ground berries. Oh dear.

Maybe my friend Emmet might go to an important meeting in way far away Wales. 

He wants to tell everybody all about one of his very interesting stories.

But way far away Wales is full of fierce dragons. Oh dear. Oh dear. That is not so nice.

But maybe they can help Emmet with his dungeons game. Maybe.

But I cannot go to be his very fierce and polite guarder dog. 

Because I do not have a little blue go to way far away book. Too bad for me. 

There is a football game today. Up on the busy street. Oh dear. 

All the get lost cars will be everywhere again. Too bad for me.

Zita got the chop the branches down machine. To take away all the fall down berries. Too bad for me.

Then the too much rain came. But we were all home. Ha.

But Zita rode her fast bicycle to the rascal ladies office. In the too much rain. Oh dear.

Now she will be all soggy when she get to her own office. Oh dear. 

My friend Niamh was gone to the Center Building even before Zita and I were awake. I do not know why.

Everybody played the dragons game in our basement last night. 

Except Miss Rima. She had to go to the doctor.

Because her eyes are way too red. So she played with everybody on her computer. In her new little apartment.

But she did not have a tasty own made spaghettis. Too bad for her. Oh well.

Craig and I had very crunchy toasts for our breakfast. 

Then Craig was working for our nice Queen. On the big computer. 

So I had a very nice nap. In the kitchen. On my way comfy bed.

At lunchtime Craig and I had a toasty cheese sandwich. 

It was too big so we had to cut it into two sandwiches. Ha.

Crunchy toasty sandwiches are my favourite.

Craig had a too long headache today. 

So when he was all finished reading for out nice Queen he went into the den. To be nice and quiet.

I had a fast nap on the big bed. I was very quiet too. Good for me.

Then it was very windy after our lunchtime. Everything blowing everywhere.

It is a flappy ears Day this afternoon.

The man on the music machine said to watch out for the way too much wind.

So I minded the house. Right at my watching window. Ha. Good for me.

Then there was some very loud thunder. So I minded the house downstairs in Emmet’s room. 

The thunder does not know about his comfy bedroom. Ha.

Niamh and Miss Rima talked to more Rascals today.

Even a very tall rascal. They asked them all their questions too. Ha.

They ask all the rascal their questions. Ha. Rascals like answering questions. It is their best job. 

When Zita got home there was too much windy thunder. We could not go for a nice walk. 

There were pieces of trees all on our own street. Oh dear.

I had to get up on the sofa. In the living room. So she would not be scared too.

Maybe we will have an altogether dinner tonight. Maybe. 

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Forty Nine

I had a very quiet day today.

Zita and I had a long walk this morning.

And maybe even have lunch with Lee too.

Because now Lee goes to Niamh’s nice university too.

Last night Lee was here. At my house. In the basement. Talking to Emmet all about the dragons game.

Today everybody is coming here to play the dragons game. Very early. 

So cousin Orlaith can play too. From way far away Galway.

Craig did not use the flat computer today so much. 

Because he had to write. So he used the big computer for a long time. I had a nap.

The present man came again. To bring a little thing for Niamh’s just for games computer.

The present man says hello Poppy when he brings the presents to our house.

So they can play the dragons game. Altogether. Ha. That is a good game.

When Zita came home she had lots of bags of tasty chips. For the dragons game. Ha.

Then we had little walk. Not a big walk. 

Then Zita made lots and lots of spaghettis for everyone. Us too. 

Maybe we will watch a brand new from far away detectives tonight. Maybe with chips. Ha.

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Forty Eight

I had a very nice walk with my friend Zita this morning.

We were all awake very early this morning.

Because of the wrong clocks in Ireland. Oh well. Too bad for us.

Because of her very favourite very early in the morning class.

Then doctor Susan came to have toasts with Zita. And too much coffees too.

And the nice present man brought two brand new catching balls this morning. Just for me. Ha.

That is a good present.

Last night we saw Emmet on the dining room table. And talked to him too. For for a long time. That is good.

He is still is far away Antigonish. In his very little apartment. I do not think that is so good. 

We had all the used from China food for our altogether dinner. 

Chinese food is not for dogs. Oh well. 

A man came this morning to look at our beautiful trees.

Because one is too close to the other one. I do not know why. Oh well.

At lunchtime Craig had all the way from Ireland shorts breads. That is silly. 

They were not breads. They were cookies.

And they are not short. They are just little and flat. 

Maybe they are not real short breads. Oh dear. That is not right.

This afternoon Zita and I fixed Niamh’s giant sign. 

Because it just fell over on our front lawn. That is not right. 

Nobody could see her beautiful sign when it was just flat on the lawn.

So Zita got very long pieces of wood from the lots of wood store. 

And with brand new nails made the sign as straight as can be. 

And now we are going to hit the wood until it is right in the ground. 

Then the sign will not fall down again. Good for us.

Yesterday Niamh asked one of the rascals lots of questions. And she wrote them down.

She is asking all our rascals the same questions. Ha. Too bad for them.

This afternoon the brand new job people told my friend Niamh to come in for another nice talk. About maybe a new job.

I do not know why. Oh well. 

Niamh was very excited. That is good. It is nice to have something that makes you very excited. 

Like a brand new catching ball. 

Zita had to go to the rascal ladies office this afternoon. To see about another new person. 

Now they cannot have a too small office anymore. 

They have to find a nice big office. With real doors too. Ha. 

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Forty Seven

Late last night was the very soon night. Ha.

My friend Zita came back to our own house. 

Her aeroplane did not get even lost once. Ha. Good for us.

I was very happy. I ran all around. She was very glad that I guarded everything perfectly. 

Good for me.

But Zita was very tired. Because of the wrong clocks in way far away Dublin. 

So we went to bed right away.

I got in a bit of trouble because of chewing my comfy bed. Oh well.

Everybody got up early this morning. Except Craig. He had a little sleep in. 

After our morning nice walk Zita went to the rascal ladies office. 

But she was too tired to take her go fast bicycle. So a car came to take her instead.

Then Niamh went to the Center Building early in the morning job. 

And then she went to the too much money for coffee store.

To read her nice university stories. And write about them too. 

She has a new from France hat. That is a nice hat. 

I was from France too. A very long time ago.

Before I was even born. Ha. I do not wear hats. It is known.

When Craig had his nice sleep in I kept him company. On the big comfy bed. Good for me. 

But when we got up Craig’s good morning toasts were way too toasty. Again.

And the very loud Save Us Save Us machine went off. Again. 

Craig said he is the best too toasty toasts maker ever. That is silly. 

This morning Craig was reading my friend Emmet’s brand new story all about his giant important story. 

So it is just beautiful as can be. 

Then he was reading our nice Queen stories. So I had a nap. Right beside him. Ha. Good for me. 

Craig and I had lots of peanut butter toasts for our lunch today. Again.

We ate all of them. All by ourselves. Ha. Good for us. 

Peanut butter toasts are my favourite. Ha. 

They were not too toasty. Ha. 

Tonight we are going to see Emmet. On the dining room table. Ha. That is good.

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Forty Six

I had a very quiet day today.

Because I was very busy last night.

We had a tasty dinner party. With from way way far away China food. 

We always get our from far far away China food from the same nice man. He makes very tasty food.

Mister Kirian and his friend came to help us eat everything. And Miss Rima too. Ha.

But now there is still lots of used food in the refrigerator. Ha. 

Craig says that is the best kind of Chinese food. 

I do not eat any from far away places food. Just just get crunchy pizza bits. 

From Mister Tony’s Pizzas store. 

Or maybe I will just be a sick tummy dog. I would not like that. 

So I got a tasty cheese treat when everybody went home. 

Today is Niamh’s all day until very late at the university day. 

So I just minded Craig when he looked for interesting stories for our nice Queen. That is an easy job.

There is nobody else here. 

Everybody is somewhere else. Oh dear. I do not like that.

So I am still in charge. 

Craig said Zita will be home soon. 

But I do not know when soon is. 

Because the clocks in way far away Ireland are all wrong. 

So I do not know all about soon anymore. Too bad for me. 

We did not play the catch the ball game so much. 

Because it is still very hot outside. That is not right.

And sometimes when I am just outside I eat the fall down from the trees berries. Oh dear.

We had a tasty peanut butter sandwich. And not even with jam. 

We had very tasty blackberries from France jelly on the sandwich.

It was so tasty we made another one. Ha. That is a good lunch.

Then I had a nice nap. Not outside today. Because of the way too hot. 

Craig will have to make his own dinner tonight. Ha.

Maybe he will have more soup again.

Craig can make soup all by himself. Without any help at all. 

That is good. 

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Forty Five

I had a very very quiet day today.

We only had a little sleep in today. And it is sleep in Sunday. 

Because my friend Zita is still in way far away.

Craig and I had very tasty toasts this morning. With brand new bread.

We only played catch the ball two times. Because it was hot even in the morning.

When Niamh was all awake I went downstairs and I took my own bouncy ball.

And we played catch the the ball. Inside. Ha. That is good.

Then Niamh and Cara and I went for a little walk. Because of the way too hot.

Disney the dog came too. He is a little dog. 

Zita and Auntie Eileen’s dog went for a walk. 

Beside a little river. In way far away Ireland. 

He is a not so big dog too. His name is Mister Sully. 

Things are not so big in way far away. 

Because Ireland is not so very big. Except for the very big castles. Ha. 

And the places where the old Gods used to live. They are very big. 

We are going to have a little party tonight. 

Niamh asked Mister Kieran to come to our house for a tasty dinner. She asked Mister Aidan too. 

But he is in not so far away Montreal. Too bad for him.

Maybe we will have pizzas. Maybe. 

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Forty Four

I had a very busy day today. Ha.

Last night Niamh took Lily to Miss Rima’s little apartment. After Lily’s Sing Happy Birthday party. 

Then they went to the play games for real money store. On the other side of the very big river. 

Because Lily is now old too. So now she can go too. Ha. That is silly. 

The games took their money. Too bad for them.

I had to mind Craig last night all by myself. Again.

Because Zita is still in way far away Ireland. At her own parent’s’ house. Visiting everybody.

Minding Craig is not so hard a job. He just stays in bed. And listens to the television.

This morning was Craig’s Saturday go to his old friends breakfast restaurant today. 

But he did not go. 

Because my friend Niamh asked him out to a tasty breakfast restaurant. Ha.

So I guarded the house all by myself. Ha.

Craig and Niamh went to the only knows how to make breakfasts restaurant. 

It is up on the busy street. 

When they came home Craig and I played catch the ball. But not a lot.

Because the way too hot came back. 

So the make the house cool as can be machine came on and I had a nice nap. On my comfy bed.

Then Niamh went to the tasty food store. After she had her squeaky clean shower. 

So we can have tasty breakfasts and dinners. Good for us.

We had own made chicken and special greens beans for our dinner.

Then Niamh and Miss Rima went up to the busy street. 

There are lots of loud music concerts there tonight. But they are not going to them all. 

Maybe Craig will watch his football team again tonight.

I will have a nice nap. 

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Forty Three

Craig and I were all fast awake very early this morning. We did not have a sleep in today.

We were awake before Niamh went to the very early in the morning job. At the Centre Building. 

Niamh was out way late last night. And she was awake way early this morning. Ha. Too bad for her.

This morning Professor Jill had to go for a nice walk. So I was her minder. Ha. That is a good job.

Professor Mister Carter is still in the other hospital. 

So she likes nice walks with nice dogs. Even little ones.

We had a long walk. We did not go to see the ducks. Oh well. 

After I brought Professor Jill back Craig and I had very crunchy toasts. With jam too. Ha.

And Craig had even more too much coffees. So he would stay all wide awake.

Then my friend Niamh came home and she was not all awake. Oh dear.

So she went back to fast asleep. Ha. Too bad for her. 

It is Miss Lily’s Sing Happy Birthday day today. And cousin Ciara’s too. On the same day. Ha. That is silly.

Maybe they will have tasty food parties. With all on fire cakes. Ha. I cannot go. I have to mind Craig.

Because I am in charge when Zita is in far away places. Oh well. 

Craig and I played catch the ball after the too much coffee. It is not so hot this morning. That is nice. 

I got in a bit of trouble this morning. I was a way too much barking dog. When Niamh was all asleep.

Because of all the too many squirrels on my patio. Oh well.

So I had to have a nice nap. Beside Craig in the den. 

When he was reading his stories for our nice Queen. Good for me.

Mister Paul came to my house for lunchtime today. I did not get any. Oh well. 

It was all way too hot again at lunchtime. 

We had to put the make the house cool machine on. That is not all right. 

Niamh was working as the fierce minder for the little children this afternoon. Again. 

When she came home we only had a little own made dinner. 

Because Craig had a too many chips lunchtime. 

And Niamh ate lots of snacks at the Centre building. Oh well.

So we had nearly real chips all covered in tasty cheese. Ha. 

Then she went to Miss Lily’s for tasty desserts. Ha. 

Craig was not invited. I was not invited too. Too bad for us. 

Craig will watch the football game. In the den. I will just have a nice sleep. 

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Forty Two

Niamh had to get up very early this morning. To go to the Centre Building. 

Because they did not have enough people to mind the little children. 

So they asked Niamh to be a special minder. Oh dear. 

Craig and I only had a very little sleep in today.

Because Zita is still in way far away Ireland. 

She sent me a picture of a giant lost in Ireland aeroplane. 

It was on the ground and way to close beside her own aeroplane. Oh dear. 

And they were still moving on the aeroport road. That is not all right. It will be in big trouble.

I got in trouble this morning.

Because of the too many awful squirrels. Again. Oh well. 

After toasts time Craig and I played catch the ball. Lots of times. 

Then I was a too hot dog. Oh well.

It is a beautiful day a bit too hot outside today. There are fat sheep clouds everywhere. 

Mister Shadow and Miss Maggie are very busy today. They are being fast runners. Ha. That is good. 

Craig took Niamh to her far away meeting this morning. In the silver little car. 

I minded the house all by myself. And the giant sign too. Ha. Good for me. 

Then they came home. And Craig and I had our lunch. Ha. Good for us.

But Niamh had to go back to the Centre Building. 

Because they do not have enough afternoon fierce minders either. 

Sometimes the children are not such good listeners. And need fierce minders. 

And they alway listen to my friend Niamh.

So Mister SD asked Niamh to help him. For just a little while. Oh dear. 

I should go too. 

Because I am the very best minder ever. Zita told me. And fierce too. Ha. Good for me. 

Zita is on an adventure. With auntie Eileen. 

Having a tasty dinner in a little hotel. Near the dangerous ocean. 

They are not even in way far away Dublin. They are in way far away Wexford. 

Near a castle. With a bridge. Ha. Craig showed me. On the magic map. 

Maybe they have ghosts there. Maybe. Oh well. Too bad for them.

My friend Emmet is going out for a tasty dinner too. With all his friends who teach the new students.  

They go to a lovely tasty dinners restaurant. Where their students do not go. Ha. 

Then they just eat hamburgers and too many chips. Ha. That is a good restaurant. 

Niamh and I went for our own before dinner walk. Then we found Lee too. Ha. 

So we all went all the way to our very big lake. We sat there for a long time. 

So we could watch all the boats. 

That was a good walk. 

Maybe Craig will watch the football game tonight. 

Maybe I will have a nice nap.

My house it empty right to the top. Oh dear.

Zita is in way far away Ireland. To visit her mother and father and all her in Ireland family too.

Because now she is at her nice way far away in Galway university. In a house with her friends. 

And my friend Emmet is in his far away Mister Saint Francis’s university. In his very little apartment. 

He is writing a new story all about his other giant story. Oh dear.

So Craig would not be scared at all. It is my job. 

My friend Niamh made the tasty dinner last night. Miss Rima was here too. 

Today is Niamh’s even earlier in the morning class. It is her very favourite class. That is good.

This afternoon our own news paper had another picture of all of my signs. And my watching window too. 

There was even my own house too. Oh dear.

Now my own nice corner is famous. Oh dear. Oh dear. 

I do not want to be all famous. 

Because I do not want to wear the hide from the sunshine glasses all the time. Oh dear. Too bad for me.

This afternoon Zita came home from the rascal ladies office early.

I do not like that bag so much. 

Then Miss Bruna took Zita and Niamh to the not so far away aeroport. 

But only Miss Bruna and Niamh came back in the car. Not Zita. Oh dear. Oh dear.

Now I am in charge again. 

I do not like being in charge all the time anymore. It is known. Too bad for me.

Because of the lots of rain last night. 

But I have my very own towels to lie on. Until I am as dry as can be.

Craig was all wide awake very early too. Even before Zita went to her little office. On her go fast bicycle.

There was an all very lost bear right in our downtown this morning. 

It was not a dangerous fierce bear. It was just an all lost and scared bear. Oh dear. That is sad. 

It was hiding in a tree. In the downtown with all the cars. Oh dear. That is not so right.

Some nice police people caught him with some go to fast asleep medicine. 

And they took it all the way back to its own without any cars at all forest.

Day Two Thousand Two Hundred and Thirty Four

It was a very busy day today.

Niamh drove her fast bicycle to her nice university. Before breakfast.

Because her class starts very early in the morning. Oh dear. Too bad for her. 

Zita made the garden beautiful. But only for a little while.

Because of the way too hot.

Then Zita and I took Miss Bruna and little Disney for our nice walk. 

But it was not a so long walk because of the way too hot.

Then there was a surprise. I went to the make me beautiful store. In the black go fast car. But it was the wrong time. Oh dear.

And drink lots of tea. And eat Mister Horton’s donuts. And talk lots and lots. To everybody. Ha.

Because I was at my make me beautiful store. So I could not help him east his lunch. Too bad for him. 

My friend lee went to the nice university today. All by herself. I saw her. From my watching window. Ha. 

But then I did not have such a nice time at the make me beautiful store today. 

There were too many other dogs there. And some of them barked at me. That is not so nice. 

So I had to have a little rest. 

But then I was there for a very long time. I did not like that so much.

Then Zita came and brought me home. In the go fast car. 

I just like to be at my house. With my own family. Not somewhere else. By myself. It is known.

And Niamh did not have a nice ride home. From her nice university. 

She had too many fat books to carry.  And it was way too hot too. Oh dear. Too bad for us.
