Day Two Thousand Six Hundred and Nine

It is sleep in Sunday but we did not have a sleep in today.

Because Zita is not here to mind everybody when they are sleeping in.

She is still at Kathy’s cottage. And she is fixing everything. With noisy machines. Ha.

Craig and I had Mister Kettleman’s very tasty cinnamon buns for our breakfast.

Yesterday was Miss Lilly’s Sing Happy Birthday day. They had a party. Niamh was there too.

It is the same day as cousin Ciara’s. Ha. Nobody told me. Oh dear.

After our breakfast Craig and I played catch the ball. Then I had a nice nap.

Niamh was not here for our lovely lunch.

Because she had to go downtown to the beautiful clothes store. And on the smelly bus. Oh well.

Before lunchtime Craig watched more of the dangerous ring movie. Ha. 

I did not watch. It is a too scary loud movie. Oh well. 

Then Craig had to do something on the big computer. Just for my friend Emmet.

For his little place to live. At his new university. 

Cousin Ciara sent us more cousin pictures. 

From her very late at night Sing Happy Birthday party. Ha.

Now I think everybody is very tired. Oh dear me. 

Even pictures of cousin Robert and cousin Simon too. I do not know them. 

Because they live in way far away. 

Then there was just lots of football on the television. Football is not so interesting. Oh well.

So I had a nice nap in the den. So I could mind Craig. Ha. Good for me. 

Zita came home after lunchtime. Then she was helping Emmet with the important papers too. 

But the papers were all the wrong way. I do not know why. Oh dear.

So Zita went to the rascal ladies office. 

Because they have a special very big machine for sending important papers. Ha. 

When Zita came home she brought lots of delicious food for us. That is good.

Then we went for our before dinner walk. 

Because now we have food for our dinner. Ha. 

Maybe we will watch the detectives tonight too. Maybe. 

Day Two Thousand Six Hundred and Eight

I had a very busy night. 

There was too loud thunder outside. In the middle of the night.

So I had to go downstairs to mind my friend Niamh.

So she would not be too scared too. 

So I slept right beside her on the very fluffy other duvet. Ha. Good for me. 

Then I came upstairs so I could mind Craig and Zita. When the noisy thunder was all gone.

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

But Craig did not go. He had a sleep in instead. 

Because of his a bit too sore push the go fast chair hand. Oh dear.

And when he was all awake so was Niamh.

Zita drove her to her beautiful clothes store and then she got us some brand new fat bread.

Because this afternoon she went to Kathy’s cottage. To be with all her lady friends.

And eat too much delicious food. And drink from way far very wine. 

And sit on the dock and eat tasty cheese treats. 

Because the Mahoneys love cheese treats. Ha.

But she will not be home tonight. She is going to sleep at the cottage . Not here.

So I will have to mind Craig all by myself. Ha.

And Niamh has to go her friends Sing Happy Birthday day party tonight. 

So it will only be Craig and I to mind each other. Ha. 

Today is cousin Ciara’s special Sing Happy Birthday day. 

Lots and lots of people went to her party. I do not know them. 

I only know the lady cousins. And my friend Emmet too. Oh well.

I saw their picture from the party. On Craig’s flat computer. Ha.

We had a fat peanut butter and honey sandwich for our lunchtime. With the brand new bread.

Then Craig watched his favourite movie all about a dangerous ring and the lost king and eleves and very scary orcs.

But they are not real. They only live on the television. Ha. That is good.

I did not go one my before dinnertime walk today.

Because Zita is at Kathy’s cottage and Niamh is at the beautiful clothes store. Oh well.

A nice man will brought us a Mister Kettleman’s delicious bagel sandwich. 

And two giant cinnamon buns. For our tasty breakfast tomorrow. Ha. That was a good idea. 

We will not watch the detectives tonight.

Because Zita is not here to help us watch them. 

Maybe Craig will just watch the football game. 

He did not watch the football game last night. 

But his team lost again. Oh dear me.

Day Two Thousand Six Hundred and Seven

Craig had a little sleep in today. 

But Zita and I did not. We went for our say hello to everybody walk. 

It was a very full of sunshine morning.

Then Zita went to the way too busy rascal ladies office. Her not so fast by went with her.

When Craig and I were all awake we had two fat toasts. We had jam too. Ha.

And we played catch the ball lots of times.

Then Niamh was a awake and had a squeaky clean shower right away.

Maybe she was all too dirty. Oh dear. 

She cannot go to her beautiful clothes store if she was all dirty. It is the rule. 

This morning we heard a program on the radio all about Mister Saint David. 

He is the dragons favourite Mister Saint. 

Because he is from way far away Wales too. Just like them. 

So that is why the Welsh people have a fierce dragon on their flag. Ha. 

Mister Saint David alway liked to make beautiful music. All by himself. 

So now everybody in way far away Wales sing all the time. Altogether. Ha. 

My friends Craig and Emmet are Davids. And Craig’s father too. 

But they are not Mister Saints. 

You have to be very very dead to be a Mister Saint. 

Like my friend Mister Saint Newton. It is known.

And Craig is not such a very good singer. Oh well. 

This afternoon Craig was just a bit busy finding stories for our nice Queen. 

But there were not so many interesting stories today. Too bad for her. 

So we played catch the ball lots of time after our lunchtime. Ha. Good for us.

Tomorrow is cousin Ciara’s important Sing Happy Birthday day. Ha.

And all the from way far away cousins are going to be there. 

To sing the happy birthday song. Out loud. 

And Emmet will be there too. Ha. 

Maybe he will take the not so dangerous train. Or a smelly bus. Maybe. 

Emmet does not like smelly busses. Oh dear me. 

The present man brought a box this afternoon. 

Craig did not open it. Maybe it is a secret present. Maybe. 

Maybe a Merry Christmas time secret present. Ha. 

Then another man brought another present. But it was a not for us present. Oh well.

After Zita and I had our dinnertime walk Craig and Zita went to a delicious food restaurant.

Because Craig said it was a long week. Oh dear. 

Maybe we have the wrong clocks again. Oh dear. Too bad for them. 

I will guard our house. Ha. 

I always get a peanut butter treat when I guard our house.

Day Two Thousand Six Hundred and Six

Zita and I had our nice good morning walk today. It is not so very warm today.

I had only a very little sleep in with Craig. Only after Zita went to the very busy rascal ladies office. 

But not the brand new office. 

Because the slow men have not finished the little kitchen. Oh dear. That is not all right.

When Craig was all awake and I had very nice toasts. With brand new from way far away Belgium jam.

Then I had a nice nap. On my comfy rug in our all finished kitchen.

Niamh does not have work today. She has a read a lot day. For her nice university. 

I was looking out my own watching window and I saw my friends the ducks in my pond.

They were all on the little islands the men have made for their little go by themselves boats. 

So now they are duck islands. Ha. That is funny.

After my nice nap Craig and I had our sandwich for our lunch. Peanut butter and tasty honey.

Then we played a catch the ball game. Because it is not raining at all today. 

So we were not soggy at all.

I had a very nice quiet all day long day. That is good.

But tonight there will be some loud music concerts up on my busy street. Oh dear.

And there will be lots of too many people on our streets. And lost cars everywhere. Oh dear me.

This afternoon Lee came to help Niamh make a tasty lunch. I helped too.

We made cheese toasties. I had some. And Craig too. Ha. Good for us.

And we played the tasty chip on your nose game too. 

I won. Ha. That is my favourite game. 

Then Niamh and Lee went to Lee’s house to watch more old movies. 

I stayed here to mind Craig. That is an easy job.

This afternoon there was a nasty fly in my house. Just flying anywhere. 

I chased it all over everywhere but I did not catch it. Oh dear. Too bad for me.

 Niamh and Miss Tarryn and Miss Jo all went to see all their friends at their nice university.

To eat chip and drink some beer. 

After our dinnertime we watched a brand new from somewhere way far away detective last night. 

Maybe we will watch her again tonight. 

Day Two Thousand Six Hundred and Five

Today is a busy day.

Because it is Zita’s do not go to work day.

So we went for our before breakfast walk in the beautiful sunshine. 

Craig had a nice sleep in. 

But I did not mind him on the comfy bed.

Because he was all awake and all dressed too when Zita and I came home. Too bad for me.

So we had our toasts altogether. Ha that is good.

The Zita and the go fast car took Niamh to her nice university. 

It is another stay until late day for Niamh. Oh well. 

Zita went up to the busy street this morning.nto look for Merry Christmas presents. 

To take to way far away Ireland. When she goes to visit everybody and Emmet too. Ha.

At lunchtime I minded the house all by myself.

Because Craig and Zita went to the store to get my sometimes sore leg medicine. That is good.

And then they went to Mister Nicastro’s all the way from Italy food tasty store. 

Because they make delicious giant sandwiches. And coffee too.

And you can sit at nice little tables. Outside in the beautiful sunshine. Ha. That is good.

Mister Nicastro’s store has all the smelly cheese in the whole world. Ha. 

Sometimes I get tasty treats there. That is my very favourite store. Ha.

When Craig and Zita got home Zita went out again. Right away.

Because she could not find any lovely secret presents this morning.

So she went to some different stores this afternoon.

I minded Craig. He is easy to mind when he is busy working for our nice Queen.

When Zita came home the day was still as full of sunshine as could be. 

So we went for our before dinnertime walk right away. It was not a long walk today.

Because we are going to to have the tasty from nearly from here sausages for our dinner tonight.

So we are going to cook them outside. Right away. In my side yard. Ha. 

I will be a big help. Maybe I will get treats. Maybe. 

Day Two Thousand Six Hundred and Four

Zita and I got up very early this morning. Again.

And we went for our before everybody is awake walk. 

But the ducks were all awake in my own pond. Ha. Silly ducks.

And as soon as Zita and the bicycle went all the way downtown Craig was all awake too.

So I only had a very little sleep in today. Oh well.

Zita’s brand new office is still not ready. 

Because they have not finished the little kitchen. 

So she went to remind them all about it. Ha. 

After Craig’s first too much coffees we had two tasty toasts. With honey. Ha.

That is a good breakfast.

Then Niamh came upstairs too. But she was not so fast awake as I was. Ha.

She had to go to a meeting all about a wedding. 

Because her friend from the Center Building is going to get married. Outside. At a farm. 

Maybe there will be cows there. Or smelly pigs. Maybe. Oh dear. Oh dear. 

And Niamh has to give everybody their do not get thirsty drinks. Right outside. Oh dear.

So she had to get beautiful clothes for the wedding. Ha,

After his next too much coffee Craig went in the den to find very interesting stories for our nice Queen. 

So I had my before lunchtime nap. Ha. That is a good time for a nice nap.

Because when you wake up it is time for your delicious lunch. Ha. Good for me.

We only played catch the ball a very little bit this morning.

Because it started to rain and I did not want to be a soggy dog.

It is a not so very warm day today. Craig found a comfy warm shirt. 

Soon it will be time for the all empty trees. Oh dear. 

And my friends the ducks will go on their vacation. To somewhere nice and warm. Oh well. 

Our cousin Ciara got her important paper today. From her university in way far away Maynooth.

She is very happy. Ha. It is nice to be happy. I am alway happy. 

Even when Craig forgets to put cheese treats on my dinner. Good for me.

Her university has their very own castle. Right there. In the university. Ha. 

My own family visited it before I came to mind them. Ha.

That is a good university. 

Our nice university does not have a castle. Just lots of brand new giant buildings.

Giant buildings are not so interesting. Oh well. Too bad for us. 

There is a castle beside Emmet’s university. Ha. That is good. 

It is not such a big castle. Maybe it has lots of ghosts.

Because it does not even have a roof anymore. Oh dear.

The kitchen at the new rascal ladies office is stil not finished. Oh dear. Too bad for them.

Zita and I did not go for our before dinner walk. When she came home from her not yet ready office. 

Because of the nasty windy rain. 

Niamh is at the beautiful clothes store until late tonight.

So it is only Craig and Zita for our tasty dinner tonight. Oh well.

I think we will watch the last from France detectives tonight. Oh dear.

But a sore throat cold has caught Zita. So maybe we will go to fast asleep early tonight.

I do not like to stay up late at night. I like to be on the big comfy bed. 

Keeping everybody’s feet toasty warm. Ha. Good for me.

Day Two Thousand Six Hundred and Three

Everybody got up very early today. Except Craig.

Because Niamh has an early in the morning class at her nice university.

It is her brand new class about movies. Movies are Niamh’s favourite.

And Zita had to go downtown to see if their brand new office is all ready. 

Then everybody can move everything to their new office. The offices with doors. Ha.

Craig did not have a nice sleep in today because today Miss Tamina’s clean the house day.

So Craig and I had a big cinnamon bun for our breakfast. 

We made it toasty warm first. Ha.

But Miss Tamina was late today. And she brought a friend with her. 

So they could be as fast the the wind. 

I just had a big nap in my side yard. It was not so noisy there. 

This morning my friend Emmet sent me pictures from his university in way far away Cork.

Pictures of the very very very old big stones. With stories written on them. 

Stories written with only lines. Not letters. Oh dear. 

Just like the lines on Emmet’s arm.

But the stones are not outside anymore. They are right inside Emmet’s university. Ha. 

So nobody can steal them. Ha.

Emmet can read the lines. 

Because he only knows all about very very old Irish stories and very very old Irish people. 

Zita talked to Mister Fernando today. So he can fix Emmet’s bedroom.

Before Emmet comes home for the Merry Christmas cheese party time. That is good. 

Merry Christmas time is my favourite.

We have lots and lots of delicious cheeses at Merry Christmas time. Ha. Good for us.

Last night we had toasts with honey. 

When we were watching the from France detectives. Ha. That was a tasty treat. 

Maybe we will watch them again tonight. Maybe.

We will not have our altogether dinner tonight.

Because it is Niamh’s stay until late night at her university. Too bad for her.

When Zita got home we went for our before dinner walk. 

It is still very full of sunshine everywhere even before our dinnertime. Good for us.

Day Two Thousand Six Hundred and Two

It was sleep in Sunday. I had a nice very quiet day today.

It is good to have nice quiet days. It is known. 

Zita and I only had a little sleep in. 

We went for our before breakfast walk before she went to the stretching store.

It is not the real stretching store. They have to wait for the brand new store to be finished. 

So they have a too small stretching place. With not even one window. Oh dear.

I stayed here because Craig was not all fast awake. 

He was in the comfy bed so he could watch the fast little cars. 

So I stayed right beside him so I could mind him on the big comfy bed. Ha.

Craig’s fast car did not win. Oh well.

When Zita came home we had our Sunday breakfast with bacon and pretend toasts.

Then Niamh went out with Miss Tarryn. Maybe for tasty treats. 

Because they do not have to work today.

Today is the day for everybody’s Teddy Bears. Everywhere in the World. 

We have some very fierce Teddy Bears. With swords. And helmets. Ha.

And Mister Regimental Sargent Major MacGruph even has medals. 

Our nice Queen gave them to him. That was nice. 

But he is retired now. Just like my friend Craig. 

After lunchtime Susan and Zita took lots of our way too much stuff to the store for people who do not have enough stuff.

They took a giant table and some not so very comfy chairs in Susan’s nearly a truck. 

Because everything was too big for Zita’s black go fast car. Oh well.

We had so much too much stuff Zita had to go two times.

Then we went for our before dinner walk. We found Professor Jill and the little dog. 

It is not so warm today so Zita had to find her warm jacket.

I already have a keep me warm jacket. It is just me. Ha.

When we got home Zita took the very very comfy chair from Niamh’s old bedroom downstairs. 

To the basement.

Because we gave the other not very comfy chairs away. Ha. 

Now the basement is nearly neat and tidy. 

And then she made Niamh’s old room neat and tidy too. 

Now it is not the just full of chairs and Craig’s very old music machines room. 

Neat and tidy is Zita’s favourite. Ha. 

I am always neat and tidy. That is good. 

We had green beans for our dinner tonight. I got some. Ha. 

We watched the brand new detectives from way far away France last night. 

Until we were too tired. So we went to fast asleep. Ha.

Day Two Thousand Six Hundred and One

Zita and I went for a very very early in the morning walk. 

Because Zita went to her beautiful hair store very early this morning. I do not know why.

So I minded Craig on the big comfy bed until Zita came home. Ha. 

Then Craig and Mister Paul went to the new old friends breakfast restaurant. 

But when they had their breakfast the tasty eggs were too cold. Oh dear.

But the nice man said all their breakfasts were all free. Ha. That is nice.

Craig and Mister Paul came home early.

Because there is another football game today. 

Up on the busy street. And that is where the new restaurant is. 

So there were lots and lots of people there. Too many people. Even in the restaurant.

So Craig came home before he got lost with all the too many people. Ha.

Or got all squished by all the lost cars. Oh dear. 

One of the take your car away trucks was right in front of my house. Looking for all lost cars. 

Zita talked to her mother this morning. On the telephone. 

She does not have flutter anymore. That is good. Ha.

Before Craig got home Niamh went to her beautiful clothes store and Zita went to the stretching store. 

So I minded the house all by myself. I got peanut butter treats. 

This afternoon Craig watched the football game on our own television. 

He did not have to go up to the busy street. Ha. 

Zita was very busy this afternoon. Moving everything in Emmet’s bedroom. 

So we can fix the sometimes too much water in his room. Ha. 

But first Zita had to go to the we have too much stuff store. With lots more of our too much stuff.

I had to stay here and mind Craig. But he was just in the den.

So I had a nice nap on the floor. In front of the den door. 

So he could not get away. Ha.

Because I have to mind him. It is my best job. 

When Zita came home went went for a very nice walk. 

All the lost cars were gone so we could visit the ponds. That is good.

When we got home Zita went downtown right away. 

So she could bring my friend Niamh home for dinner. 

I helped Craig wait for them. At my watching window. Ha. 

I am the best helper. Craig told me so. Ha. 

His football team did not win. Again. Too bad for him.

We are going to to have a little dinner just for Craig and Zita tonight. And me too. 

But Niamh had to eat downstairs.

Because she busy was doing work for the beautiful clothes store. Too bad for her.

Maybe we will watch something new tonight. Maybe.

Day Two Thousand Six Hundred

Craig and I had a very quiet day today.

Zita and Niamh were busy all day. Too bad for them.

Zita drove Niamh to the beautiful clothes store very early in the morning. 

She had to start the store again today. Too bad for her.

Then Zita came home and we had our good morning everybody walk. 

It is not even a bit sunny today. Oh well.

Then Zita and the not very fast bicycle went to the rascal ladies office. 

Zita’s mother is all back home. In her own house. Ha. That is good. 

Because in your own house you have your very own comfy pillows. And your cosy duvet.

Now she has brand new do not flutter anymore medicine. Ha. That is good.

Craig did not have even a little sleep nice sleep in today. I do not know why. Oh well.

So we had toasty bagels for our breakfast. We did not have jam today. Oh well. 

Then I had a nice nap. 

But then some very loud and fast aeroplanes flew right on top of my house. Oh dear.

You cannot have nice naps when too loud aeroplanes wake you up. 

Craig said that lots of very fast and loud aeroplanes are in our city. And even very old aeroplanes.

One is just like Craig’s father’s giant aeroplane. And lots of little aeroplanes too. 

From the very sad war. 

The very old aeroplanes are not so fast. But they are still too loud. I do not know why. 

And all the aeroplanes are going to be just flying all around for all the weekend. Oh dear. Too bad for us.

Zita and I had a very long walk last night. We went to our little lake. 

The smelly geese were not there. Just a fisherman. 

He did not want me to look at his fish. Too bad for him.

So we came home to our own beautiful pond before we had our dinner. 

We had the used from far away India food. Now it is all gone. Ha. 

Even the bumpy bread. Oh well.

Then we watched the nice detective. On the television. In the den. Just Craig and Zita and I . 

But we did not watch for a long time last night.

Because we were too tired. So we went to fast asleep. Ha. 

Craig and Niamh and I had our together dinner tonight.

Because Zita went out right after her work. To have a tasty dinner with Kathy.  

So a nice man brought us Mister Kettleman’s very tasty bagel sandwiches. With giant pickles.

I do not like pickles very much. Oh well.

Day Two Thousand Five Hundred and Ninety Nine

Everybody was up very early this morning. But not Craig.

Niamh had to go to get the beautiful clothes store all awake. Oh dear.

And Zita had to write an important story for a very important meeting today. 

At the rascal ladies office office.

When you have to go to work you just have to go to all the time meetings. Craig told me.

But when you are nearly all retired you do not have to go to meetings. Ha. That is good.

Zita and the black go fast car went downtown so she would not be late. 

When Zita left Craig was all dressed. 

So I did not have even a little sleep in. Oh well.

After Craig had his too much coffees the wheelchair man came to my side yard.

To show Craig another go fast chair. But this one could be a motorcycle too. Ha.

Like Uncle Bill’s. But not all the time.

Because the motorcycle part comes right off. Ha. That is silly.

But only a new go fast chair can be a motorcycle too. Oh dear.

And it is for outside only. Like my big red ball. 

Because you cannot drive a motorcycle in the house. It is known.

Cousin Orlaith rides her motorcycle sometimes. In way far away Ireland.

But it is a too fast motorcycle. Oh dear. 

It is a very noisy from way far away Italy motorcycle. Oh dear.

Today our Cousin Orlaith is in way far away Cork. With my friend Emmet. 

But not on the motorcycle. Ha.That is good. 

She made him stand still. For a beautiful picture. At his new university. In Cork. Ha.

Right in front of their giant gate. 

Old universities always have giant gates. I do not know why. 

Maybe there are dangerous animals there. Lions or maybe alligators. Oh dear.

There was an animal in my front yard last night. 

But I scared it all away. Ha. It is my best job.

We did not have any toasts for our breakfast this morning. 

Because of the motorcycle wheelchair.

So we had a very fat toast with jam for our lunch. Ha. 

Then I had a lovely long nap. 

Because I was up minding Zita very early this morning.

And Craig was just finding new stories for our nice Queen. 

So I minded right beside him. 

The music machine only plays soft music when Craig is looking for interesting stories for our nice Queen.

So it is easy to have lovely naps. 

Maybe we will have a nice before dinnertime walk today. 

Because it is a very sunny but not way too hot day today.

We watched the nice from way far away England detective last night. 

But we did not have any chips. Zita just had Irish tea. Oh well. 

Day Two Thousand Five Hundred and Ninety Eight

It was a busy day today.

Emmet’s do not get lost aeroplane was just late when it found way far away Dublin.

So he had to hurry very fast to find the all the way to Cork train. Oh dear. 

Emmet does not like to hurry so much. Me either. 

If you hurry too fast you might fall down and hurt your bottom. Or hurt your leg. 

I hurt my leg onetime. And could not go for long walks. For a long time. Oh well. Too bad for me. 

And now Zita’s mother’s is maybe going back home tomorrow. That is good.

With brand new do not flutter medicine. Ha.

And today is the brand new first day of Niamh’s interesting classes at her nice university.

So Zita drove her there.

When Zita was home we had a very long walk. All over our neighbourhood. 

And we saw our giant just like the sun flowers. Ha. Those are good flowers.

And we stopped at doctor Susan’s to chat. Ha. Then we went home.

Because it was nearly our lunchtime. Ha.

Last night Mister Kirian came over to visit us. Ha. 

So we invited him for a very tasty special delicious dinner.

Because the next day was the brand new beginning for everybody. Ha. 

And the nice man brought us all the way from India food. Ha.

They have very tasty food in India. And they have very tasty bumpy bread. 

And elephants. But they do not eat elephants. Ha.

The bumpy bread is my favourite.

Before our dinnertime Niamh was moving everything in her beautiful bedroom. 

Everything everywhere. Even the comfy bed. 

I did not like that so much. Things should just stay still. Oh well.

But Mister Kirian helped Niamh move the very heavy sometimes it is a bed sofa. And her giant mirror.

It is nice to have helpers. 

Then Miss Lily and Lee and Cara come to watch. 

Cara and Lee are still all by themselves. 

Miss Bruna and Mister Lyndon are still in way far away Italy. Visiting lots of cousins. Ha.

We have lots of cousins in way far away too. But they are different cousins. Oh well.

Today is Zita’s do not go to work day. But she was working all day. Oh dear.

Because they are moving the rascal ladies office. 

They are moving to a different office. 

With brand new colours and their own doors too. Ha. That is good.

So Zita has to talk to lots of people. So they can move and not get even a bit lost. Oh dear.

After lunch I minded the house all by myself.

Because Craig and Zita went up to the busy street to have some outside coffee and giant cookies. 

I got peanut butter treats. 

When they were back home I told them the present man was at our house. Ha.

And he left a present. But it was not for me. Oh well.

Then Zita had to do even more rascal ladies work. Oh dear.

And Craig was just busy working for our nice Queen.

So I had a very nice long nap. Ha.

Then Zita and I went for our early before it rains walk. We had a very long walk today.

Because we did not have a nice walk last night.

Because of the special delicious dinner. Ha.

I only have to mind Craig and Zita tonight for our dinner.

Zita said maybe we will have toasty cheese sandwiches. Ha.

They are my favourite. 

Poor Niamh is at her university until after dinnertime. Too bad for her.

Day Two Thousand Five Hundred and Ninety Seven

I did not have a very good morning today.

Because after our walk I saw a going away bag in the kitchen. I do not like going away bags.

Because when you have a going away bag you will not be home for dinner. 

Or even for your own bedtime. 

So I will not see someone for a long time. I do not like that.

And it was Emmet’s is going to way far away bag. And he is going all by himself. 

And then Zita’s mother had to go to the hospital in far away Dublin.

Because she has Flutter. Oh dear. 

I do not know what that is. Oh dear. 

Auntie Eileen called Zita on her telephone. And Uncle Ciaran too. Oh dear. Oh dear.

Then Emmet was all dressed up. In his special beautiful clothes. To go to far away.

So everybody said See You At The Merry Christmas Time. 

But that is not for a long time. We do not even have any too much snow. Oh dear. 

I do not like this so much. 

And then Niamh’s telephone took our pictures all by itself. That is silly.

So Zita drove him to the catch the train station in the black go fast car. 

And then he was just gone. And I was just here. Oh dear. Too bad for me.

And when the do not fall over and crash train finds Toronto he has to get even another train to find the aeroport.

Because that is where the aeroplanes live. Trains cannot find way far away Ireland. Only aeroplanes.

Because of the giant full of whales ocean. Oh dear. 

You have to have your own little book to go to way far away Ireland. 

Or you cannot get on the aeroplane. Oh dear. 

My friend Emmet did not forget his little book. He sent me a picture of it. Ha. That is good.

This afternoon Craig and I had toasty bagels for our lunchtime. 

Then I had a nice long nap on my comfy bed in the kitchen.

Because I was up very early this morning. Being a big help. 

Niamh did not have to go to work today. 

Because she has to get everything all ready for tomorrow.

Because tomorrow she goes to her nice university again. Ha. 

And then she will see all her university friends.

And we saw lots of children going to their schools this morning. 

Today is the starting school again day. 

Craig and I do not have to go to school anymore. 

Because we know everything. Ha. That is good.

When Zita came home we went for our before dinnertime walk.

We cannot have altogether dinners until Merry Christmas time.

Because Emmet is not here. He is going to his old university in Cork. Too bad for us. 

Day Two Thousand Five Hundred and Ninety Six

I had a confusing morning today.

It is a do not go to work holiday day.

But my friend Niamh had to go to work. 

But Zita did not. 

But she did rascal ladies work in my side yard anyway. Oh dear.

And Emmet was all fast awake very early this morning.

So Zita could drive him to his another dragons game. With all his friends.

And Craig had a sleep in and it is not sleep in Sunday.

That is not just the same day. I like all my days to be the same day. It is known. 

And Zita talked to her mother in way far away. And to our cousin Orlaith too. 

Cousin Orlaith’s friend is working in way far away Cork. Ha.

Maybe Emmet and cousin Orlaith can go out for a tasty lunch. 

Some day. When she is visiting her friend. 

Then Zita and I went for our late walk. It is a cloudy all over everywhere day. Oh well.

And we got back I Craig was in the living room. 

And we were on the patio. Ha.

I was sitting on the keep Emmet’s room as dry as a chip blanket.

Soon Mister Fernando is going to fix it. 

After Emmet is in way far away. And not in his comfy bedroom. Ha. 

Tomorrow Zita is going to take my friend Emmet to the do not just crash train station.

Then he will find an aeroplane that knows where far Ireland is.

Because tomorrow Emmet is going to way far away Cork. To his next university. Oh dear.

After lunchtime Zita found Niamh downtown. And then they found Miss Georgie too.

So they all came home so Niamh and Miss Georgie could make their own delicious lunch. 

I got some cheese. Because I was a big helper.

Then Mister Paul came to make the gate to my side yard open even wider. Ha.

So Craig and Zita and Mister Paul had tasty treats in my side yard. And I minded them. Ha.

And then after Mister Paul was gone Zita and I went for our before dinnertime walk. 

We went for an early not so very far walk. 

Because maybe it will a rainy dinnertime. Maybe. 

And we did not want to be just soggy. 

We had an only us dinner tonight. So we had used Mister Tony’s pizzas. Ha. 

Because Emmet and Niamh were having lovely dinners with their friends. Oh well.

Maybe we will watch the nice detective tonight. 

Or maybe we will go to fast asleep right away.

I like it when everybody goes to our comfy beds right away. Ha. 

That is my favourite night time. 

Day Two Thousand Five Hundred and Ninety Five

Zita and I only had a little sleep in today. I do not know why. 

We went into the living room and Zita read her book and I went back to fast asleep. Ha. 

Craig did not have a big sleep in either. Too bad for us.

So Zita and I went for our nice good morning walk before she took Niamh downtown to her job .

When she came home she had a bag of Mister Kettleman’s bread new bagels. 

For our own lunchtime. 

And Emmet then was all awake too. 

And we had brand new right from the nice farmers peaches too. All cut up into pieces. Ha.

It was a very quiet day today.

After our lunchtime Zita went to my nice hospital to get a very big bag of my food. That is good.

Craig always puts cheesie treats on top of my food. To make it delicious.

Because I am the very best minder dog. Ha. That is true.

Emmet is going to Mister Mike’s apartment at dinnertime. So they can play the dragons game.

Emmet has been working very hard getting the game all ready.  

So the game will be all finished when he goes to way far away Cork. 

Last night the man brought food to our house in the middle of the night. Again.

For Niamh and her friends. That is silly. The food was from the steal all your sheep restaurant. Oh well.

This afternoon Zita had to do rascal ladies work. So I minded her. In the side yard. By myself. 

And Craig made his feet as clean and warm as could be. In the very little shaky water bathtub.

Before dinnertime Mister Paul borrowed the silver little car. 

Because he had find something for his other house.

And Zita and the go fast car took Emmet to Mister Mike and Miss Morgan’s apartment. 

At the same time.

Because it takes the smelly bus a very long time to find their apartment. That is not so nice.

And Zita went downtown to get my friend Niamh. After her work.

Because Niamh was very tired.

Because of not enough sleeping in her comfy bed. Too bad for her.

So she had a nice nap. All by herself.

So Zita and I went for our dinnertime walk.

And Craig stayed in the house so he could mind my friend Niamh.

Then we watched the from way far away England detective program. 

It is the not very scary program.
