Day Eight Hundred and Fifty

Miss Pancake

We had a little sleep in today. 

Because we are having our Christmas vacation.

After our breakfasts we went to the farm. 

But it was very messy there today and all the nice puddles were not so nice, because they were just full of very cold weather. 

So when we got home I had a nice warm up little bath.

Because all my feet got very cold.

Craig had a very big sleep in. Because he was listening to a new book. 

But when he was very awake he had his good morning to you coffee.

And he had two of Professor Jill’s doughnuts. And there were lots of crumbs for me. Ha.

Then Niamh and Tarry and Sach came to visit me. 

And this morning a man brought a very very big box for Niamh.

And it was Merry Christmas presents from Niamh’s company. 

So we opened it, right in the kitchen. 

And it was full right up to the top with presents.

And they were very lovely presents, even wines, and a fuzzy warm hat, and lovely pyjamas and jewelry and chocolates.

And all the presents were made up north, where the giant mountains are. 

By the nice people who live up there. 

And there was soap that looked like the very dangerous polar bears. 

And jams made from only way up north berries. My goodness.

So many presents. 

We gave Niamh’s friend Mister Nelson some money for a Merry Christmas present.

And so did Richard and Kathy. 

So Mister Nelson can help more people in that way up north city, where Niamh was working. 

And Mister Nelson has a very nice dog, Mister Thumper, who goes to work with him. 

He minded Niamh when she was way up there, where those very fierce bears live. 

But then all my lady friends had to go shopping, but I stayed here with Craig and Zita. 

Because there was not enough room in Sach’s noisy Jeep. Oh well. 

Then Craig and Zita talked to the bank, but it took such a long time for the bank to find us, I had my afternoon nap. 

Niamh is going to borrow some of our delicious party food. Even cheeses.

Because she and Tyler are having a party at his apartment tomorrow night. 

And Niamh does not know how many people are going to be guests. Maybe lots and lots. Oh dear.

I do not have mind the party. 

Because I minded all of our own parties and now I am all party tired.

After the bank lady found Craig and Zita, Zita had a very nice hot bath in the very big bathtub in the basement.

Then it was time to put our own dinner into the stove. 

Because it was nearly dinner time for us. 

And we had a tasty pie. The kind full of lots of delicious meat.

I got some crunchy bits of crust in my dinner.

Then we watched our detective program, until Zita went to fast asleep on the comfy sofa.
