Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy Six

We did not get up too early today. That is good.

When Craig was all awake Zita drove Niamh downtown. To her beautiful clothes store.

Because it is an awful windy cold day outside. 

When she came back home we had our together toasts. 

And when we were all finished professor Jill came to visit me. 

And have some coffee with Craig and Zita too. 

Then Zita went to her exercise store. But only to the not so hard class. 

Because of her sore hand. That was a good idea.

When she came home I took her on our together at lunchtime walk. 

Even in blow all around windy snow. But we did not care. Ha. Good for us.

When we got home Zita made toasty cheesies. With bacon too. Ha. For our lunchtime.

And the save us, save us machine did not make any noise at all. That is good. 

The machine makes very loud and very scary noises.

I do not like it at all. It is known.

Craig was in the den so I went in to help him eat his lunch.

I got some little pieces. Some had bacon on them too. Ha. 

Then Zita went out with the black car. To look for a brand new light for our bathroom.

Because our new light is too bright. I do not know why. Nobody told me. Oh well.

Craig did not go to his old friends breakfast. 

Because of the nasty windy cold. 

Mister Paul did not go because he had some visitors for his breakfast time. 

And Mister Tom did not go either.

Because a cold caught him too. Maybe it was the same cold that caught Zita. Maybe.

So there were not so very many people at the breakfast restaurant today. Oh dear me. 

Someone ran into mister Tom’s car. And it had to go to a special fix your car all up store. 

To get some brand new paint. Oh dear..

Maybe it was the same car that hit our black go fast car. Oh dear. That is not so good.  

Maybe there is a nasty car that just goes all over everywhere hitting nice cars. Just because. Oh dear.

When Zita came home she brought a new brand new light for the bathroom. Ha.

And brand new shoes for Craig. Shoes for his just a bit broken foot.  

From when the go fast chair fell over and crashed. Right in front of our house. 

And I could not get out to help. Because I cannot open doors so well. Only sometimes. Oh dear me.

But now he has new shoes. 

My friend Niamh always has new shoes. All over everywhere. Oh well.

We went for our before dinner walk when it was still all beautiful and bright outside.

But it was still windy. But I am still very furry. So I was not just frozen up. Ha.

But I am going to the make me beautiful store. Next week. Oh dear. 

I do not like going there. I just like leaving there. All beautiful and squeaky clean. Ha.

We will have delicious sausages for our dinner tonight. 

It is only a Craig and Zita dinnertime today. They are easy to mind. 

I just have a little nap underneath the dining room table. Right beside them. Ha.

Niamh is having her dinner with her lemon friends. So no tasty sausages for her. Oh well.

Last night we had chips when we watch the detectives from way way far away Australia. 

Maybe we will watch them again tonight. Ha. Maybe with more chips too.

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy Five

It was a get up very early day today. Oh well.

Niamh went to the beautiful clothes store to get it all opened up. Zita and the black go fast car took her.

Then Zita and I had a long walk. It was a very sunshiney day today. But it is not so warm.

So when we came home I minded Craig. Right on my comfy duvet on the big bed.

After Zita went to downtown Craig and I had a sleep in.

But not a very long one. Oh well.

Then we had our good morning toasts. And Craig had two too much coffees.

We did not look out my watching window for so long. So I had a nice nap. 

Because I was up very early this morning. 

Craig and I had especially fat tasty peanut butter and honey sandwiches for lunch. Ha.

Then Mister Paul came for a little visit. 

He did not have time for any too much coffees. 

Because he has to move things from his other garage. 

So we lent him our move heavy things machine. 

Because it is the time when you lend things. Ha. 

Then he went back to his other house.

Craig says he does not have to eat broccolis because of the lend time. I do not know why.

Then I had my own lunch. With a giant carrot treat. Carrots are my favourite. And chicken too. 

Emmet was very busy today in way far away. 

He was talking to lots of girls and boys at his very old university all about his way way old Irish stories.

And why they are very interesting and why everybody should read them too.

Especially the ones all about Mister Cú Chulainn his very very fierce dogs. Ha. Those are good stories.

He sent me a picture of his nearly finished reading story. 

It is about somebody’s bicycle. And Emmet does not even have a bicycle. Oh well. 

So that is a silly story. Too bad for him. 

He should read more stories about Mister Cú Chulainn. 

And his fierce giant helper dogs. Ha. Those are my favourite stories.

When Zita got home we had a nice not in the too dark walk. 

But I had to wear my green boots. 

Because the salty streets hurt my feet. Oh well. 

This afternoon Zita was at the breakfast for not so very much money IKEA store. 

To buy things for the rascal ladies.

And she brought home a box of giant cinnamon sticky buns. 

For Craig. And for me too. For our good morning breakfasts. Ha. That is a good present.

Maybe tonight we can have a nice altogether dinner. 

And then watch something new on the television tonight.

Because we saw all of the far away detectives last night. 

But the very nice one had to die. And go to Heaven. 

Because he was way too sick to be a detective anymore. Just like our Uncle Bill. Oh dear me.

And the lady detective had a brand new baby. 

Right there. 

Not in the hospital. 

But right there on the detectives boat. That is not so all right. Oh well. 

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy Four

When we were all awake this morning it was still snowing everywhere. Oh dear.

But Zita and I went for our before breakfast walk anyway. I got very soggy.

And I had to go in the bathtub again.

Then I had a sick tummy.

Because I ate a lot of brand new snow. 

I always get a sick tummy when I eat cold things. Oh dear.

That is why I cannot have the crunchy ice from the refrigerator anymore. Too bad for me.

Zita walked to the busy street. So she could find a smelly bus.

There was too much everywhere snow downtown for the go fast car. Oh dear.

So I minded Craig on the big bed. We had a little sleep in. 

Then we had some very very crunchy toasts. And jam too. Ha.

Then we just looked out the watching window at the more too much snow.

We could not play catch the ball today either. Too bad for us.

And catch the ball is Craig’s favourite game. Oh dear me. 

Then Niamh was upstairs and a bit all awake. But not all awake.

So she went to her stretching store so she would be all awake again. 

But she still is sore all over her legs. Oh dear. 

Then she is going to study for her nice university. Before she goes to the beautiful clothes store. 

I am not that busy. Good for me. 

After our lunchtime I had a nice time looking out my watching window. 

At the windy snow. And it was all over our own cars. Oh dear. That is not very nice for them.

Then I had a fast nap.

Mister Jack came here this afternoon.

And he took away lots of our way too much snow. That is good.

I did not even bark one time. 

Because I know Mister Jack. 

We cannot play catch the ball in the too much snow. So he took it nearly all away too.

That is good. 

Zita and I did not go on a before dinnertime walk. Because it is way too messy outside. 

But we will not have a together dinner tonight. 

Because it is another work until late night for Niamh. Too bad for her.

We will watch the from far way detectives tonight. If everybody is not too sleepy.

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy Three

My friend Zita was not so sick today. 

Maybe the nasty cold could not find when she was fast asleep. Ha.

So we went for a nice before breakfast walk. And then she went to her nice lady doctor.

To talk to her about her sore knee. 

Before she went to an important rascal ladies meeting.

Craig did not have a nice sleep in today. So we played catch ball lots of times. Outside. 

And we had very crunchy toasts too. 

When Niamh was all awake I helped her make our lunchtime. I am always a big help.

After lunchtime Niamh went downtown.

To read more new stories before she went to her beautiful clothes store.

But she is all sore all over today.

Because last night she went to a new stretching everything store. With her Lemon friends.

And now everything is too stretched. Ha. That is a silly store. 

And my friend Emmet is still very busy reading all about way way way old stories. 

All about way way way old people in Ireland. 

Because if Emmet does not remember all about them everyone will just forget about everything. Oh dear.

It is good that my friend Emmet is remembering the stories. 

And his friends at the other very old universities are remembering other old old stories. 

Maybe about the fierce dragons that live in way far away Wales. Maybe. 

It is good to remember important things. 

Like dinnertimes. Or days for lovely long walks to our little lake. Ha. 

Craig had another Scotsman’s porridge for his lunchtime. I had a cheesie treat instead. Good for me.

Then Craig was a fierce Viking again. In the den. So I had a nice living room nap. 

But when I looked out my watching window there was the little goes everywhere snow. 

Falling on my own front yard. And on the silver little car too. Oh dear me. 

I thought the too much snow was going to be all gone. Oh dear me. 

When Zita came home she brought in all the food in the world. 

And everything is filled up to the top. Even the pretend kitchen in the basement too. Ha. 

And she talked to her parents in Dublin. 

They knew that a nasty cold had caught Zita. 

Because they read my stories. 

The ones all about me taking very good care of my family. Ha. That is nice. 

We will not have an altogether dinner tonight.

Because it is a work until late tonight night for Niamh. Oh well. 

Maybe we will watch more of the far away detectives tonight. 

And read their words on the television too. 

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy Two

The nasty cold has still caught my friend Zita. So I had to mind her.

She could not go to the rascal ladies office today. 

Because of the nasty cold. Oh dear.

But minding my family is my very best job. It is known.

We had toasts with Craig this morning. 

Then he went into the den to find some brand new stories. For our nice Queen.

And Zita sat at the dinning room table doing rascal ladies work. 

That is where I was too. Ha. But underneath. That is where I mind her. Ha. 

My friend Emmet is having pancakes with some of his friends in way far away.

Because it is the famous lend your pancakes Tuesday. All over everywhere. Ha.

They will have very tasty pancakes in Cork today. 

Because Zita brought Emmet them his own maple syrup. 

For their pancakes. Ha. That is good. 

But I do not know who he will lend them too. That is a silly day.

Niamh and I had pizzas for our lunch. I had a bit. 

But I did not lend it to anyone. Ha. 

Because it was not a pancake. Ha. 

Then Niamh went to her nice university to read more stories and talk all about them too. Ha.

And Craig and I played catch the ball lots of times.

Because it is still not even cold outside today. 

But the lady on the radio told us that she could see lots and lots of more too much snow for us. Oh dear.

And Miss Ashley had her brand new baby last night. Ha. That is good.

Now Mister Ollie will have a little baby to mind too. 

He will be a happy dog today. That is good too. 

Doctor Susan was there too. So she could be a big help. 

She called us on the telephone last night just to tell us. That is good.

Zita and I went on a little afternoon walk. It was a very nice walk. 

But we did not go all over everywhere today. We just went all around here. And talked to people. 

Because it was a very sunshiney day today. And lots of people were outside. That is good. 

The dangerous wolves cannot hide in the bright sunshine. It is the rule. Ha. Good for us.

When got home Zita remembered that it was the lend your pancakes day. 

I knew that already. Ha. Good for me. 

So we are going to have our own pancakes. With maple syrup too. Ha.

Maybe someone lent them to us. Maybe. 

So we will have them for our altogether dinner tonight. That is good. 

We have to find new detectives to watch tonight.

Because we watched until the end of the reading on the television detectives last night.

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy One

Zita did not go to the rascal ladies office today.

Because of her sneezing all the time cold. So she did all her work here. At home. With me. Ha.

And she used her computer and the big fast computer too. Ha,

You cannot go to your office if you are sick. It is the rule. 

Or everybody else will be sick too. 

So I minded her all morning. In the living room. 

And we had very crunchy toasts with Craig.

Then everybody went to their own work again. Me too.

Niamh was up early today to go to her nice university. It is her stay until late day at the university.

And my friend Emmet is very busy at his way far away in Cork university.

Because he has to read lots and lots of even more books. Oh dear.

They have lots of interesting very old books in his university’s library.

Because it is an old university. Ha. 

Not as old as the university in way far away England. 

Where he told everybody about one of his stories. That is a very very old university. 

Knights used to go there. Ha. Maybe they have their own ghosts. Maybe.

My friend Niamh took her own picture. 

Of herself. Ha. And I am in the picture too. But only a little bit of me. 

It is still not cold at all today. And everything is melting everywhere. Oh dear. 

Now it is all very messy outside.

So I just minded my family all afternoon. It was a nice quiet day today.

Zita and I went for a very nice short before dinnertime walk.

We did not go so far because of Zita’s nasty cold and the messy snow. 

We did not want to be soggy. But I had to get in the bathtub again. 

So I would not have the nasty salt on my feet. Oh well. Too bad for me.

We had a nice early altogether dinner tonight. 

Niamh had to watch a movie from way way far away. 

So she can write an interesting story all about it. For her nice university 

Then Craig and Zita and I watched some more of the detectives we watched last night. 

They are reading their words on the television detectives. 

Dogs cannot read words. We can just hear them. Oh well. 

So I just had a nice beside everybody nap. With my own comfy blanket. Ha.

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy

We only had a little sleep in today. 

Because a nasty cold has caught my friend Zita. And she has to sneeze all the time.

And you cannot have a nice sleep in when you are all the time sneezing. Oh dear.

Craig had a sleep in. 

But he had a sore tummy last night. But not this morning. 

Zita said that the nasty cold caught her on the aeroplane. 

That is why I did not see it come in our house. Oh dear.

And someone hit the black go fast car. Wth their car. And broke it a bit. 

But only a little bit. 

But now it has to go to a special garage. To get all fixed. Oh dear. That is not so nice.

Niamh does not have to go to the beautiful clothes store today. 

So she had a nice sleep in. And then she made her own pizza. Ha. 

I got some. Ha. Pizzas are my favourite. 

Then Craig and Zita went on an adventure walk. Up to the busy street. To go to a little restaurant.

I stayed here to mind my friend Niamh. And our lovely house too. I got peanut butter treats.

But all the lovely little restaurants were filled up to the top. With people.

Because it is nearly warm outside today. And everything is messy melting. 

So they went to Mister Kettleman’s bagel store and got bagels instead.

And brought them home and some other tasty treats too. Ha.

Then right away I took Zita on a little just to the park walk. A not very far walk.

Because it is very messy outside. And Zita has been caught by the nasty cold.

Yesterday I had to get into the bathtub so I would have squeaky clean feet. Ha.

But I was only a bit soggy today. That is good.

We had a very quiet afternoon. I minded Zita right beside her. In the living room.

Maybe we had a nice nap. Maybe.

Then we had our dinner.  But my friend Niamh did not have her dinner with us,

Because she went to her sit on your rug and do stretching until you are too smelly store. Oh well. 

We did not watch any detectives last night.

Because Zita did not want to read the television. 

So we watched a program about very very tall towers. With very bright lights on the very top.

Right on top of giant rocks. 

Right in the dangerous ocean. 

With giant as tall as can be waves all around. Oh dear.

And the towers are right beside way far away Ireland. 

And one is even right beside Cork. Where my friend Emmet lives. Oh dear. 

But Emmet does not live on a rock. 

He lives in a very little very dry apartment. Ha. That is good.

The giant waves were very scary but then I fell fast asleep so we went to bed.

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty Nine

I had a very busy morning today.

Zita and Niamh and I got up early. 

Because Zita wanted to talk to her mother and father. In way far away.

And Niamh had to go to her downtown work.

Craig had a big sleep in. He has a bit too sore shoulder. 

And he did not go to his old friends breakfast restaurant either. Too bad for him.

Then Zita took the special tools for taking all my all tangled fur away. 

Because I have to go to the make me beautiful store. And I do not want to go there all tangled up.

So Zita used the special very sharp comb to take away lots and lots of tangled me. 

Then there was lots of my too much fur all over the comfy rug in the living room. Oh dear.

And when Craig was up we had our toasts together. With brand new crunchy bread. And jam. Ha.

It is not cold outside today. But I did not want to play catch the ball. 

I did not want to have soggy feet. So I stayed inside and had a nice after lunchtime nap. 

On the comfy rug in the living room. Right beside my friend Zita. 

So I could be her best minder dog. 

Zita was very busy doing rascal ladies work. Even on a Saturday. Oh well.

It was a very quiet afternoon for everybody. That is good. 

We went for just a little before dinnertime walk today.

Because my leg was a bit sore yesterday. 

And Zita has a little sore throat too. Oh dear me.

So we only went just a bit around. But we found professor Jill anyway. Ha. 

We had an altogether dinner tonight. There was Craig and Zita and Niamh too. 

But Emmet is still in way too far away Cork. Oh dear. Too bad for them.

We watched a new detective program last night. 

It was a read the words on the television detective program. 

Because it is from somewhere else way far away. Oh well. 

Maybe we will watch some more tonight. 

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty Eight

It was a get up very early morning today.

Because Niamh had to get the beautiful clothes store all ready to sell the beautiful clothes.

So Zita and the go fast car took her downtown.

Because it was still dark as can be outside. 

And when Zita came back we went for good morning to everybody walk.

It is still a too cold for long walks day outside. Oh well.

Then the go fast car took Zita downtown to her rascal ladies office.

I stayed here to mind Craig. And we had a sleep in day today. Ha. That was good.

Sometimes you have a sleep in because it is just nasty outside.

Sometimes you have a sleep in because it is sleep in Sunday.

But sometimes you have a just because sleep in. Like today. Ha. 

When we were all awake we had out together toasts.

Today we had delicious raspberries jam from far away France. Ha.

Sometimes we have jams from France and sometimes from Ireland and sometimes from Scotland.

And sometimes from right around here. Where we live. Ha. 

That is because Craig and I are jam experts. Craig told me. So it is true. Ha.

When we were having our tasty toasts there were three giant very noisy stop the fires trucks.

And they went down my street. And then a police truck went too. But it came back. 

And sat right in front of my house. 

It found a silly car that did not even stop a bit on my corner. 

So the police truck turned on all its very bright lights. And caught it. Ha. Too bad for it. 

Then Craig went in the den and I had a nice nap on my comfy rug. In the kitchen. 

We had peanut butter and honey sandwiches for our lunchtime. 

Maybe we are peanut butter experts too. Ha. Good for us.

Then Mister Paul came for his coffee. And croissants. 

Mister Paul always bring tasty croissants when he visits. That is a good visit.

My friend Niamh came home. When Mister Paul left. 

She was very tired.

Because of her too early in the morning work. So we had a nice lie down. 

Right on the comfy living room rug.

I kept her company. Ha. That is my best job. 

And Zita was home early too. Before the all dark outside. That is good. 

So we had our before dinner walk in the bright sunshine. 

And we found professor Jill and the very little dog too. Ha. Good for us.

We will have another altogether dinner tonight. Ha. 

Those are my favourite dinnertimes. 

Maybe we will watch some detectives tonight. 

We have chips. I saw them. 

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty Seven

Zita and I did not have a sleep in today.

We had to get up very very early. In the still dark outside. 

Because she had an important rascal ladies meeting today. All day. 

It is an even breakfast and until after dinnertime important  meeting. Oh dear.

We did not have a too early in the morning walk today because my leg is a bit sore.

So it is going to have a little rest. And the rest of me too. 

And after Zita and the go fast black car went to downtown I minded Craig.

But he did not have a nice sleep in either. Oh well.

So we were are awake early so we could have our together toasts.

We had the brand new from way far away Scotsmen’s jam. Ha. 

That is tasty jam. I alway get toasty bits.

Then we looked out my watching window. 

And my street was filled up with lots of the giant take the snow away trucks. 

And nobody else could go on the street. Just the trucks. Oh dear. I do not know why.

There were no take away the snow machines. Just their all empty trucks. Oh well.

Craig and I only played catch the ball one time. 

Because it is still too cold for the go fast chair. Oh well. 

Craig had Scotsman’s porridge for his lunchtime. I got carrot treats. 

Carrots are very crunchy. Porridge is not so crunchy. Ha. Too bad for Craig.

When Niamh was all awake we had more toasts. With honey too. 

But not peanut butter. Oh well.

I do not think Niamh likes peanut butter so much as Craig. And me. Oh dear me.

Then Niamh walked up to the busy street. 

So she could find a smelly bus. Oh well.

Tonight is a work until late night tonight for Niamh. 

And tomorrow is a start way too early in the morning day. Too bad for her.

So I only have to mind Craig tonight. Until Zita and Niamh are back home.

That is an easy job. 

Maybe a nice man will bring us a delicious dinner. 

Then Craig will watch his hockey team. 

And I will have a nice nap on my comfy duvet. 

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty Six

My friend Zita came home last night. 

And she brought presents from way far away. Ha. That is good.

Niamh got giant chocolate bars and a not even a bit full book. Ha.

And Craig and I got brand new Scotsman’s jam. For our good morning toasts. Ha. Good for us.

And Craig got a comfy warm fuzzy shirt too. 

And then a man brought us very tasty food from somewhere very far away. 

Because everybody was too tired to turn on the oven. Ha. 

After dinner we watched a detective program. Until Zita was too tired.

Because of the wrong clocks in Ireland. So we went to bed early. Ha.

Going to bed early is my favourite. 

And this morning Zita and I went for a very long walk. 

And we found professor Jill and the other little dog. They were going on their walk too. 

So we all went together.

When we got home Craig was all awake and dressed too. 

So we had our altogether toasts. In front of my watching window. That is just right.

Then Craig and Zita had to read some interesting stories for their own work. 

So I had a very nice nap. It is easy to have nice naps when everyone is back home.

Where I can be their fierce minder dog. 

Except for Emmet. Oh dear. Too bad for me. 

He is still at his old university. Reading his very very old stories.

Sometimes he says that they are not so interesting stories. Oh dear. I do not know why. 

He should not read them. He should only read the interesting ones. 

The ones with brave dogs who help everybody. And bite nasty people all up. Ha. Those are good stories.

After lunchtime Zita drove Niamh to her beautiful clothes store.

And Craig was in the den. 

Because he is still looking for someone for the princess. In long time ago England.

We will not have an altogether dinner tonight because Niamh has to be at her work until late.

Zita will be fast asleep when she gets home. 

Because of the wrong clocks. Oh well. 

Maybe we will watch some detectives before Zita is fast asleep. Maybe. 

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty Five

We had a very little sleep in today.

Because when we looked out the window there was windy snow. 

It was the very little get into you eyes snow. And windy too.

So Craig had to have three too much coffees this morning.

And we had croissants. Craig cut them in half. Ha. 

That is how you get even more tasty croissants. 

I did not know that. Nobody told me. That is a good idea.

I looked out my watching window when Craig had his even more too much coffee. 

Sometimes the snow is so little you cannot even see it. 

But if you go outside you are all snow soggy. That is not so nice.

I saw Zita’s aeroplane. She sent me its picture. 

It is a from Ireland aeroplane. That is why it is green. Ha. 

It is at the aeroport in in way far away Dublin.

But it is in the middle of the night. Oh dear.

Maybe because of the wrong clocks in way far away. Oh dear.

Then she has to find another aeroplane in England. 

One that can find our aeroport. Even in the snow. 

Now she is coming home to her own house. Ha. That is a good idea.

I saw her aeroplane. Right on the magic map. On Craig’s flat computer. Ha.

It is way way way up north. 

Maybe she will see polar bears. Or the very furry oxes. They are my favourite.

Because they are not scared of the very dangerous wolves. 

They get in big circles so they can stick the wolves with their sharp horns. Ha. That is a good idea. 

There was a police truck on my own street. With too many bright lights. And it was here two times. 

Maybe because of the too slippy streets. Maybe.

Craig and I stayed inside today. It is not so nice playing catch the ball in the windy snow. 

Craig and I had to make our house all neat and tidy.

Sometimes when Zita is not here we are not so very tidy. 

But if we clean everything all up she does not know. Ha. Good for us. 

And Niamh had another squeaky clean shower. With her loud music machine. 

So she would be neat and tidy too. Ha.

Kathy’s big truck found Zita right at our aeroport and brought her home to our house. 

I was very happy. Ha. Good for me. 

Everybody is all back home from way far away. 

Except for my friend Emmet. Too bad for me. 

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty Four

We did not have a sleep in today. 

We had a giant delicious croissant instead. Ha.

Niamh found it at the famous just for croissants store. On the busy street. Ha.

And before Craig’s next too much coffees we played catch the ball.

It was a very sunshiney morning.

But not so warm today. Oh well.

And the lady on the radio said there was going to be another too much snow night tonight. Oh dear.

When Niamh was all awake Miss Tarryn came here. But it was not a visit.

Because right away they went to Cara and Lee’s house.

So they could watch very old movies. For all the day. And have some treats too. 

They do not have to go to their nice university this week. 

Because it is the time everybody has to read all the important stories they forget to read already.

Craig put my comfy duvet on the big comfy bed this morning.

So I could have a very nice cosy nap. Ha.

So we had a very quiet nice all day morning. 

After our lunchtime Kathy came to our house. For a little visit and to have some coffee.

So Mister Paul came too. And he brought croissants. So everybody sat at the dining room table. 

And talked all about rascals. And ate croissants. Ha. 

It was not so very interesting so I had a nice nap on my comfy rug. Ha.

My friend Emmet is back in his little in Cork apartment. 

And he is playing his dragons game. On his computers.

With his friends from his first university. And they are all here. In our city. 

Not in way far away with Emmet. Ha. That is funny. Ha.

We had used pizzas for our lunchtime. 

When Zita is not here we always have lots of used food to eat. 

But not so many green beans. Oh well. 

Craig watched the hockey game last night. 

And his team won. Again. Ha. They were very happy. 

After dinnertime we watched a program all about giant beautiful houses. In way far away England.

They even had beautiful houses for lots and lots and lots of horses. Ha. 

Then we watched another program about castles. In way far away Italy. With lots of gardens. 

And one lady had dogs everywhere. 

Because she had very special sheep. So she had sheep minding dogs. 

Just like Miss Maggie and Mister Shadow. Ha. That was a good program.

But then Craig and I were tired so we went to fast asleep. On the big comfy bed. 

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty Three

I had some hamburger and chips. 

Last night. 

In the middle of the night. 

With Craig.  

In the big comfy bed. Ha. 

Because Niamh and Miss Tarryn were too hungry.

And they went to Mister McDonald’s restaurant. On the busy street. 

When they came home they had treats and Craig and I got some too. Ha. 

Niamh and Miss Tarryn were still in the dining room. Talking. Until late.

So I had to help them too. 

On my own chair. Right at the dining room table. With them. 

But then I went to sleep anyway. Ha.

They were not wide awake when Craig and I were awake. 

So we had our together breakfast without them. 

With brand new bread. And blueberries jam. Ha. Too bad for them. 

Then we went outside to play the catch the ball game. 

Because it is not so cold here.

But it is all very windy in way far away Ireland. I saw it on the television. Oh dear.

And the roads are full up with too much water in far away Wales. 

But my family is not there. That is good. 

Because Zita and Emmet are in downtown Dublin today. 

Because Zita went to downtown to find him when he got off the train. So he would not get lost. 

And they went to a nice restaurant to have tea and treats together. Ha. That was a good idea. 

Lots of our cousins were in Dublin with my friends Zita and Emmet. 

Even Miss Ciara and Miss Emma and Miss Lucy were there too.

To have their tea and lots of biscuits at their grand parents house. Altogether.

And my friend cousin Orlaith and her friend Mister Evan were there too. Ha. That is good. 

Then after dinner Emmet had to go back to his little in Cork apartment.

So they went downtown again. To the very big train station. 

So they could find a train that knows how to find Emmet’s old university. 

And would not get lost. Or just fall over and crash.

Last night Craig and I had more tasty used food. Ha. 

Just like before. But with delicious chicken too. 

I got some too. But not the make your nose run soup.

That is not for dogs food. 

So I got a piece of tasty chicken. Ha.

Mister Tom came to visit me today. And to have some tea with Craig. 

He brought brand new detective programs for us. Ha. That is good.

And then Niamh and Miss Tarryn were upstairs  to have their lunch.

They made all the toasts in the world. With peanut butter too. I was a big help. 

Then they went to the busy street to get treats. And some for Craig too.

But they had to come home. 

Before they got the treats. Oh dear. 

Because a nasty car splashed them all over. With icy very cold water.

So they had to come and get brand new all dry clothes. Oh dear. Too bad for us. 

When they were all dry as a chip they went again. That is good. I might get a treat too. Maybe.

Craig and I had very very little pies for our dinner.

We had our dinner in the den. So Craig could watch his hockey team again.

Niamh and Miss Tarryn went out for a tasty dinner. With some friends. 

So I just had a nice nap. And looked out my watching window. 

When the hockey game is all over we will go to bed. That is the rule.  Ha.

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty Two

I was very very busy last night. 

All the very noisy take the snow away machines in the world came here.

In the middle of the night. 

To take away the way too much snow from both my streets. Oh dear.

They were here everywhere for a long time.

But I got into trouble.

Because I was a too much barking dog again. I did not care. Ha.

The noisy machines did not take away my house. 

Because I am the best house guarder ever. Ha. It is my best job.

But Craig had to get up to help me guard the house. In the middle of the night. Oh dear. 

So then we went back to sleep. 

Last night Mister Tony’s friend brought delicious pizzas for us.

Because Miss Georgie and Miss Sasha had their dinner here. In the dining room. With me. Ha.

Miss Georgie slept here last night on cousin Orlaith’s comfy bed. 

And she was not even awake when Craig and I had our toasts. Ha.

My friend Niamh went to her beautiful clothes store early today. Too bad for her.

And I saw brand new pictures from way far away Ireland. Zita sent them to us.

Even a picture of Mister Sully. In Auntie Eileen’s house. 

I saw them right on the flat computer. 

They have very tall busses in Ireland. I do not know why.

But today there is more all the time rain at Zita’s parents house. Oh dear. 

They have lots of all the time rain in way far away Ireland. 

And lots of wind but not lots of too much snow.

We still have lots of too much cold here. Oh well. Too bad for us. 

After we had our toasts I had a very big nice nap.

Because I was a bit tired. 

Because you cannot be all fast asleep when you have to guard your own house from the noisy machines. It is known. 

And I was not even fast awake until lunchtime.

Because then Miss Georgie was in the kitchen so she could make her too much coffee.

Before she went to teach dance a lot to some people.  Ha.

Then I was all awake too so Craig and I had Chinese roll ups for our lunch.

And Craig put them in the fast cooking machine. So we did not even have to wait for them. Ha.

Then we played catch the ball. Because it was not very cold after lunchtime. That is good. 

Then Craig went into the den to be a long time ago lawyer. So I had another nice nap. 

Maybe we will have another altogether dinner tonight. 

Maybe we will have some used tasty pizzas. Ha.

Craig will watch the hockey game. Maybe we will have chips too. Maybe. Ha.

We cannot watch any detectives tonight.

Because Zita is still in way far away Dublin. 

Tomorrow my friend Emmet is going there too. 

All the way from his old university in Cork. On a very fast train. 

So he can visit Zita and his Nana and Grandad. 

And then he can have tea. And maybe tasty from Ireland treats. 

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty

We did not have a sleep in today.

We do not have any nice sleep ins when Zita is not here. 

Because I am in charge. Zita tolled me. 

So I have to be all wide awake right away. It is true. Ha.

And my friend Niamh was up very early today. 

It is a wake up the beautiful clothes store day. Oh well.

But then Craig almost forgot to give me my own breakfast. I had to remind him. Lots of times. 

But I did not starve all away. That is good. 

And then we had our two toasts. And looked out my watching window. 

It is a very cold day outside today. So there was nobody outside.

When Niamh got home last night we went for our very late at night walk.

In the very dark outside. And it was even past my bedtime. 

But we did not see any very fierce wolves hiding in the bushes. Or the giant raccoons.

Just a little bunny. Right in the middle of the street. 

I chased it. But only a very little bit.

Because it was only a very cold little bunny. Oh dear. Too bad for us.

Niamh and I were both too cold when we got home. So we went to bed. Right away. 

Today is the day you tell all your family that you will always love them. Forever. Ha.

My family loves me. They always tell me so. Not just one day. Ha. That is nice.

Zita put secret I love you presents in Craig’s just for clothes drawer. 

One for Craig and a big bag of chocolates for Niamh. Ha. 

We did not play catch the ball today because of the way too cold. 

It is too cold even in the very bright sunshine.

And I did not even bark at the little birds in my bushes today. 

They were hiding in the bushes. It is not so cold in the bushes. It was too cold for outside barking today.

So I had a very nice inside nap. After Craig and I had a peanut butter and honey sandwich. 

For our together lunchtime. 

Craig is not the detective in a while ago England anymore. 

They found the nasty person. And it was a lady. Oh dear.

Now he is the lawyer who works for the princess. He is still looking for a dead person. Oh dear. 

I did not want to find the dead person so I had a nice nap on the comfy bed.

We had a nice quiet day. 

You always have quiet days when it is way too cold outside. It is the rule. 

Zita talked to Craig. On his telephone. But I did not hear anything.

Because I was just fast asleep. Oh dear.

She is at auntie Eileen’s house. 

In the little town with the way too small for everybody bridge. Oh well.

Some of the cousins are there too. Ha. 

She is going to sleep there tonight. And talk all about everything. 

That is what you do when you go visiting in way far away places. And drink tea and eat biscuits too. 

Miss Georgie is going to have dinnertime with us. And Miss Sash too. 

Maybe we will have a dinner party. Ha. Parties are my favourite. It is known.

Craig watched his hockey team last night. And they even won. Ha. 

I did not watch. I had a very lovely right beside him sleep. 

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Fifty Nine

We got up early today.

Because Zita is not here today. 

The aeroplane found her parents house in way far away Dublin. 

So now she is right there. In way far away Dublin. 

But she is not here.

So I had to sleep at the very top of the bed last night. 

So Craig would not be too scared. That is my best job.

We had more used food last night. 

Craig had the make your nose drip hot soup.

I did not have any. I did not want to have a runny away nose. 

Because I have a lovely big nose. Craig only has a very little nose. Too bad for him.

We had the tasty rolled ups too. I got a crunchy end. Ha. 

When we were fast awake early this morning there was even more everywhere snow. Oh dear.

So we had two tasty croissants for our breakfast. Croissants are my favourite. 

We did not play catch the ball today. Because of the everywhere snow. 

When Niamh was all awake she put my own duvet on the big bed.

The big bed is more comfy when it has my duvet on top. Ha. Good for me. 

The move the snow machines were on my own corner again.

But I barked at them and I scared them all away. Good for me.

We will not have an altogether dinner tonight. 

Because Niamh is at her beautiful clothes store until late tonight. 

But we do not have any more used from way far away China food. Oh dear.

Maybe we will have cheese toasties. Maybe. 

Cheese toasties are my favourite. Ha. 

We had two breakfasts today.

Because our first breakfast was too early in the morning. So we had another. Ha.

Then I had a lovely beside Craig nap in the den. 

So I would know where he is. Good for me.

We did not have our together lunchtime until late today. 

Because Craig was busy reading a very big new story for our nice Queen.

But he did not just starve away. That is good. 

Because we had a peanut butter toast for our very late lunchtime. Ha.

Then Niamh went up to the busy street. In the too much snow. 

So she could find a smelly bus. Oh dear.

Miss Georgie is going to come to visit my house. Maybe tomorrow. Ha.

We cannot watch any detectives tonight.

Because Zita is not here. That is the rule.

Maybe Craig will just watch a noisy move about scary Vikings. 

Or watch his not so very good hockey team. Oh well. 

Day Two Thousand Seven Hundred and Fifty Eight

We got up early this morning.

Because today is the day that my friend Zita had to go to way far away Dublin. On an aeroplane. 

To see her mother and father and my friend Emmet too. 

So we had a very early long good morning to everybody walk this morning.

We went all over everywhere. I had to wear my green keep my feet dry boots. Oh well.

But I was not so soggy when we went back home.

And when we got home Craig was all wide awake and all dressed too. 

So he could make sure Zita did not forget about him when she was away in way far away Dublin.

Then Craig had his too much coffee but Zita did not have any.

Because of the too small bathrooms on the very big bus. Oh dear. I would not like that. At all. 

A car came to our house to find her and take her right to the very big bus. 

She could not take the train to Toronto this time. 

Because people are sitting right where the train goes. Oh dear. 

That is dangerous. They might just get squished. I do not know why they are there.

So Zita took the very big bus instead. Too bad for her.

Now she will have to wait a long time in the aeroport in far away Toronto. 

Maybe they might have some nice restaurants there. With tasty food. Maybe. 

After the car took Zita away Craig and I had two toasts. 

Niamh was still fast asleep. So she could not have delicious toasts with us. Too bad for her.

Then I had a nice nap. Right beside my friend Craig. 

As close as can be. So I would know that he has not gone to somewhere far away too. Ha. Good for me. 

I do not like it when Zita goes to far away places. It is known. 

Then I saw her. Right on the magic map. Craig showed it to me. Right in Toronto. Ha.

But I always get a little bit sad when Zita goes away to way far away. 

Because she has to sleep there too. And not sleep in her own comfy bed.

With me to keep her feet toasty warm. That is why I get a bit very sad. Oh dear. 

So Niamh came into the den so I could have some hugs. 

You cannot be sad when someone is giving you hugs. It is the rule. Ha. That is a good rule. 

So then Niamh and I had used pretend toasts. And maple syrup too. Ha. For our lunchtime. 

But we will not have even a little altogether dinner tonight.

Because even Niamh will not be here either.   

It is a work until late night at her beautiful clothes store. 

Maybe Craig and I will have tasty used food tonight for our dinner. Ha. 

Used food is always very tasty. It is known.

But Zita’s aeroplane does not fly away to Ireland until nearly my bedtime. That is not so good. 

Craig says aeroports are not even a bit interesting. Oh dear. 

Last night we watched all the dogs. On the big television.

But the lovely Miss Bouvier dog did not win the best prize. 

I do not know why. That is a silly show. It is known.
