The oven door won’t close. Oh yes. As of last night the oven door refuses to shut. Thankfully the bloke who cleans the oven for us does repairs too and as we are a regular customer he is coming this morning. We just hope he can fix it as the turkey is going to be a very raw turkey! The shower still doesn’t work and someone is coming to fix that. The quiet day my Mistress was looking forward to just isn’t going to happen. As long as she remembers to go to the butchers and collect the turkey we’ll be all right…presuming we can actually cook it.
We did try to get Santa hats for all the pups so we could do a really cute photograph. Apparently we should have thought about it weeks ago as they are now out of stock. Ah well, there goes another bright idea.
For a change I thought I’d bring you a photo of me, Shadow and Ari which my Mistress took yesterday when we all decided the weather was too bad to do anything but curl up together. It’s a good job that Megan was in the other room as I don’t think she’d have fitted on the settee.
I’ve explained to the pups that Santa won’t come to visit them unless they are good and go to sleep…and stay asleep all night! The problem with youngsters is that they are now excited about the whole idea that Santa might actually come and visit them. I did point out the chimney was in the other room so they may not see him at all as he may leave their presents with me for safe keeping. They looked a little crestfallen so I might have to dress up as Santa to surprise them and cheer them up.
