Out of Focus
It is fair to say that either Mum wobbled or the photos she has taken so far have been out of focus. She did see our squirrels but only at times that she did not have the camera handy. The wildlife she has captured is somewhat dubious. There is very little wild about either Aristotle or Dad – wild is more my domain. That’s probably why, when Mum wants to try to photograph the wildlife I’m not allowed to be outside with her. I think that is basically mean, but I can see the point. She did manage a couple of nice pictures of the birds but they aren’t squirrels and they aren’t on the little picnic bench.
Day Care
I’m off to day care today. Mum has sked what I want to do about the next couple of weeks. She and Dad are going to be on holiday for most of it so will be able to entertain is pretty much round the clock. On the upside that does sound rather good, but a) I don’t totally believe them as both are rather prone to working even when on holiday and b) I do like seeing my friends. I’ve got to decide by the time Mum picks me up tonight and I really don’t know what to say.
Shadow
Shadow says getting older is not as easy as you’d think. Oh, of course it just happens without you having to do anything, but it’s the being old that can be hard. She is finding she needs to pee more often than she used to, much to everyone’s annoyance. It means it’s harder to stay in bed in a morning and every so often she wants to go out again after she’s gone to bed. She had to ask Mum for some seaweed too as she was feeling a bit nutrient deficient. It’s all the same things that Alfie went through as he got older so at least Mum is prepared.
Love
