Day Two Hundred and Ninety Eight

Miss Pancake 

It was not so very nice outside today.

I helped Niamh with her breakfast until it was time for us to drive Zita to her downtown office. 

Because today is her Thursday go downtown day. 

When we got home Niamh and I had a very long practice walk.

And I was only a little bit soggy when we got home. 

I minded Niamh while she made more beautiful pictures for that wedding in far away Italy.

Then when Craig was all dressed Niamh put on her fancy go to work clothes and the fast car took her to the lovely shop. 

Our car went to Mister Mike’s fix your car garage yesterday. 

To get new I Am Going To Stop lights. That was a good idea.

After Niamh was gone it was time for Craig’s next coffees and to make the round toasts. 

So we had two toasts and lots of jam too. 

Then it was a Craig and Pancake day. 

And we had a relax because I have been very busy. My goodness me. 


Furrgus and Festis 

Well it was inevitable that the beautiful days could not last indefinitely, and so to prove the point this morning was a much of a muchness.

But we did not let a sprinkle here and there distract us from our regime.

So my brother and I, dressed appropriately, set forth on morning patrol. 

I must say we were rather disappointed that our young Emmet’s presentation was not broadcast, as we were most surely looking forward to it.



I mean how could anyone not be intrigued by the topic.

“Artisanal Slaughter “ The Development of Clesa in Medieval Irish Heroic Literature. 

As soon as we saw today’s program we told Dugal. 

Now you must remember that young Emmet is well known for carefully crafting the titles of papers. 

And this was no exception. 

“Artisanal Slaughter”, by my word, that is a sure to be someone’s motto before long. 

Perhaps my brother and I will get a signed copy for Dugal for his birthday. Wouldn’t he be thrilled. 

While we walked up to Little Victories, it was after doughnut delivery Thursday, we discussed if we should get Emmet’s paper leather bound.

We finally decided that with the inevitability of so many future papers we might as well opt for a yearly edition. 

Naturally our doughnut order was awaiting us, hidden behind the counter.

So after a few espressos to fully awaken us, we rambled over to the canal to watch the tourists. 

Which with the renting of canoes at Dow’s lake is always amusing. 

As we walked home the sun made an appearance, which was most welcome I must say.

By the time we got home Mr. T and Miss Pancake had finished their lunch and were starting the afternoon relax.

We followed their fine examples. 


Miss Pancake 

Craig and I had a very tasty fat peanut butter and raspberry jam sandwich for our lunch. 

Then I was ready for my afternoon nap.

Because it is our day to have a relax. 

Last night when Zita and I were watching the detective program I got nearly the whole sofa just for me. Ha.


Today our cousin Lucy is by the far away ocean, with Zita’s father, in very far away Ireland. 


Maybe they were looking for those whales. Maybe.

And cousin Ciara was at that ice cream shop. I think that Zita’s mother was with her. Ha. 



It was very sunny this afternoon. But it got a bit too hot. 

So I had my naps inside today.


Because it was a Craig and Pancake relax day. 

When Zita got home we had to have a fast dinner.

Because she had another important meeting to go to on her computer. 

So we had the already cooked chicken. 

When we finished diner Niamh and I went in the fast car to get Tarryn and bring her back to my house. 

When we got home it was my dinner time. That is my favourite time. 

When Zita was all finished with her meeting we still had time to watch our detective program.
