We got up early this morning because it is our very early day.
Niamh has a too early class at her university and today is Zita’s day to go to her other office.
But before she walked to the downtown we had a very long all over good morning to everyone walk.
It was not even a bit warm outside, but it was as sunny as could be. Ha.
When we got home Zita talked to her mother. In Ireland. Just to say hello.
And we had a lovely together breakfast.
And even Craig was up very early.
Because today is a Craig and Pancake day. Ha.
After Zita was gone Craig had his first coffee.
And he had toasts with his first coffees, because it was very early in the morning.
We had peanut butter toasts.
Because we did not have tasty jam at all. Too bad for us.
My friend Emmet is very busy today too.
At his very important conference. The one in his university in Cork.
He told me that they were being very technological.
Because Emmet has to look at all the people on the computers from all over everywhere.
And make sure everybody is very polite. Oh my goodness.
And Emmet is in charge of another part too. My goodness me.
So everybody is very busy. Except for Craig and me. We had a very nice relax this morning.
So it was a very nice morning for us.
Furrgus and Festis
Fortunately last night’s snow was nearly invisible even by the time we arose.
As we were donning our lovely scarves and the Alpaca kilts we nearly tripled over Mrs. T and Pancake returning from their walk.
After a thorough perusal of the neighbourhood we went up to Bank Street arriving at Victories as it opened.
I had a double espresso and Festis had his cappuccino.
The pastries were nearly, but not quite, an afterthought.
The sunshine was certainly welcome after yesterday’s dreariness.
And being dressed for it, the cold did not lessen our enthusiasm for the morning.
Dugal did not accompany us today, being busy with his lawyers about the continuing debacle concerning his father’s will.
Well his stepfather is a Campbell, what could one expect.
I think it fortuitous all round if the Earl had an unfortunate but permanent accident.
It is not without precedent.
Unfortunately there are no desirously steep cliffs at Dhùn Stadhainis.
But there is a history of a ghost there, which might prove to be a useful starting point.
Miss Pancake
I did not have to remind Craig about my lunch.
Because he had to remind me.
Because I was fast asleep on my very comfy watching chair.
After my lunch Craig and I had a peanut butter and honey sandwich.
With brand new honey.
And it was made by the bees that live around my own city. It was very tasty honey.
Then I went outside and had a little nap in the sunshine.
And when I came in I watched everything right from my own chair. But then I went to fast asleep.
We had some very busy days and Craig and I were a bit tired so we had an easy day.
That was a good idea.
And every time I was awake I went outside for a long time.
Because it was not cold today.
When I was watching everything I saw my friend the very big mountain dog.
It was going for its own in the sunshine walk.
When Zita came home we went for our walk too. And we went right away.
Because Zita has another important meeting to go to tonight.
On her computer in our right here office.
Everybody had a different dinner tonight.
Because we had the tasty used food from before. Ha.
But Niamh ate downstairs. Because of her homework.
Festis and Furrgus
It was a bit on the chilly side this afternoon but the other day we spied a new restaurant serving homemade Mexican food.
La Casita Nica. And it is right there on Bank street.
Unfortunately they have limited opening times.
So we decided to make sure we were there when they opened for the dinner seating.
This meant we had to make our before dinner patrol after our dinner.
So we intended to be a bit cautious on the amount we consumed.
We failed miserably as we immediately were staggered by the smells that flowed from the kitchen.
After a few deep inhalations we all opted for the steak and shrimp. It was a wise choice.
When were were finished the evening had not yet begun so we took a leisurely walk home.
Giving ourselves time to digest what was obviously an excess.
The resulting patrol was rather cursory I am afraid to say.
As we passed Irene’s we were, at least I was, tempted to drop in, but was guilted on my way by my kin.
Just as well I suppose.
When we got home so was everyone else. And the sun was still shining.
And we were ready for our after dinnertime naps. Much to our relief.
