Day Two Hundred and Eighty Seven

Miss Pancake 

I did not have a very good nights all the time sleep last night.

There was something outside near my house and I did not like that.

So Zita took me outside lots of time. 

But then I was very tired and went to sleep on the very comfy sofa in the den.

Not even on my own nice bed. Oh well. 

This morning, after my breakfast, I got my do not be too sore medicine. The covered in peanut butters kind. 

And we went on a very little walk. But only just to Miss Bruna’s house..

Then Zita’s friend Miss Chris came for a nice visit.

So I minded them. 

But I am still a bit all the time tired. 

So I fell asleep while I was minding them. They did not mind.

And when Miss Chris was gone Craig and I had two toasts right in the den.

Last night Craig’s football team won. My goodness.

And it was very exciting. 

Because they do not win so very often. My goodness me. 

So when all the people were on our streets, looking for their cars, they were very happy. That was nice.

It is good to be happy. 

I cannot go on such long walks. Because of the stitches. 

So before lunchtime Zita and I went on an adventure car ride. 

Could not stick my head out the window. Because I cannot use my seatbelt.

Because of all the stitches, but I looked out and saw everybody walking around. 

That was a lot of fun for me. 

And when we got home it was lunchtime for me. That is a good time.

Poor Miss Pancake had a very hard time settling last night. 

And then she heard something outside.

So my brother and I immediately went outside, he was still in his carpet slippers, and confronted an errant raccoon. 

At first it questioned our authority, but I pulled my sgian dubh from my stocking and settled that question, let me tell you. 

When we returned Miss Dog was fast asleep in the den. We followed her example. 

This morning was an acceptably pleasant cloudy day. 

Considering the furnace that is parts of Europe, we are not complaining. 

Fortunately Zita’s brother and Miss Luna have a swimming pool, in their backyard, in their house in Spain. 

We understand that the contractors have still have not found a solution to putting in air conditioning in Tiroam. 

But we will let Cousin Morag crack that particular whip. 

Having rather over indulged ourselves at the Embassy we settled on a light breakfast at Victories.

Just some chocolate frappés and enough croissants to settle our stomachs. 

Then we came returned home as the humidity was playing havoc with our freshly coiffed presentation. 

Miss Pancake 

After I had my lunch I was still a bit tired. 

So I had a very nice nap under the dining room table. 

So I could see Craig at the same time. 

Zita and the fast car were doing some important errands. 

So I only had to mind Craig.

Then Niamh came home from the cottage so I minded her in the den. 

And then Zita came home with lots of food.

And for tonight all the dinner was on a stick. 

All of it. Even the vegetables too. 

And Niamh cooked it outside. 

And when it was all cooked it was still on a stick. 

And that stick did not catch on fire. That was a very good stick. 

Sticks are my favourite too. 

After dinnertime Craig and Zita and I went into the den to watch our detective program.

I still have not seen even one kangaroo. Too bad for me.
