Too much painting
There’s too much painting going on around here. I want to be outside. It would be so much better if were spending the weekend gardening. Mum says that she’s a bit of a fair weather gardener, which suits Aristotle’s needs very well, but what about me? I’m an all weather dog and I just love being outdoors. Oh I know Mum has just ordered a whole load of rose bushes so we’ll have to be outside when she’s planting those, but I don’t want to wait. As you know, I’m not a patient dog. Whilst Aristotle might enjoy looking out of the hall window and shouting to tell us who is going past, that’s not my idea of how to spend a day. Especially not with the amount Shadow farts – that really is best taken outdoors.
Now it’s going to rain
It wasn’t even as though it was particularly bad weather yesterday. Ok, so it was colder than it looked but it only rained for some of the day. There’s more rain forecast today so I’m guessing it’s going to be another frustrating day. I’m going to have to come up with plans of mischief if this continues. I can see why Mum now wants to finish the kitchen painting. It is such a mess in there. She’s had to take everything off the work surfaces and shelves so she can’t actually find anything. It’s ok, I know where my food is so there’s no real problem.
Concession
I think I’ve negotiated a concession for today. If I stop being such a nuisance and the rain stops then I can help Mum take some bricks down the garden to where she needs to put the base for the garden seat. Better still, as Ari’s legs are hurting and Shadow wants some peace and quiet she’s promised it will be just the two of us. That’s just how I like it.
Love
