Day One Thousand and Ninety Eight

Miss Pancake 

Yesterday I minded my friend Craig when he had his stretches. 

Because sometimes this stretches make you too sore.

So I had to be there to be his best nurse, 

But when Miss Janet was gone he was very tired, so I got up on the bed right beside him. 

And just like that we both went to fast asleep. My goodness. 

And when we were awake it was dinnertime, and we had a bedtime picnic before we watched our detectives.

This morning when I went outside it was all smelly, because of those smelly skunks.

And when we went for our walk we saw that skunk.

So we ran across the street, because it was all ready to make us all smelly too. But we got away. Ha. 

Then we found Miss Bethany and we had a very long and all over together walk. 

But when we got home we were all soggy. 

So I had to have a real bath in the bathtub with smelly shampoos. 

But then I smelled so beautiful that Craig got up to help me get all dry. 

Then Niamh came here to borrow the car to do some important things.

Last night Niamh and Tyler and Tarryn and Jamie went to a late at night movie.

And everyone had to get all dressed, just like those people in that movie. My goodness me.

Tonight is when all the little children get all dressed to be as scary as can be. 

And they will come to my house so I can see them, and we will give them treats. 

Far away Ireland invented this day, a very very long time ago, when everybody just stole cows all the time.

And they say that is the day all fairies come to visit. So you have leave tasty treats for them. 

We do not have those fairies here, we have fierce bears, and giant moose instead.

But you should not leave tasty treats for those bears, because they will get too chubbley.

We are way too far away for those fairies to fly here. It is known.

My friend Colonel Dugal is very busy today, and he is in Scotland, because it is the day to be off to Tigh nam Bodach to move the Cailleach and her children into their wee stone house for the winter.

Mister Lochlainn is going to be his helper.

I think all of Cousin Mórag’s giant deer dogs will be there too.

So I think they will run all over until they are too too dirty. Ha.

Festis and Furrgus stayed right here to help us with the scary children.

I do not know if children go to their castle for treats.

They told me that they have their very own ghosts in the castle. My goodness.

But they are not so scary because they all have to wear raincoats.

Because of the not so many roofs in the castle.

Cook says on full moons she always sees that old Aonghas MacDhòmhnaill, sitting on the far rocks. Oh dear.

He cannot go in the castle because of the curse. My goodness.

Niamh went to the lovely shop to help Tarryn get the shop all ready for the Merry Christmas time.

There was something scary in our garden last night, I think it was lion, or an elephant.

So I ran into the bedroom to tell Craig and Zita, and they said I should just go to fast asleep, right beside both of them.

So I could guard them both at the same time. That was a good idea.

So I did.

And this morning they was not one elephant there at all. That is good.
