I thought I was going to be able to bring you news on Heidi today, but her operation didn\u2019t go ahead on Tuesday as they had an emergency. It was delayed to yesterday and as I\u2019m writing this I\u2019m still waiting for news. We\u2019re all thinking about her and looking forward to news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now that it\u2019s the first day of December our Mistress has declared Christmas. She has decided we\u2019re going to have a whole month of it. I blame the book she\u2019s been listening to, which is a slushy romance set around Christmas. The worst part is she\u2019s planning to follow it with more Christmassy books! \u2026 Christmas music\u2026 decorations\u2026 tree\u2026 oh just about everything. Have I told you she\u2019s got a silly notion of trying to make the porch to our house look like the entrance to Santa\u2019s Grotto? I\u2019ve got visions of lots of small children starting to queue up outside. Mind you, a good howl from all of us should soon put them off. She\u2019ll be having our Master dressing up as Santa before you know it. I\u2019m the only one who isn\u2019t agreeing with her when she says that all we need now is some snow. Ah well, it would certainly keep Wilma happy if we had some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Talking of Wilma, she has developed a very unnerving habit. She has taken to running in zoomies, circles around me when I\u2019m trying to go to the toilet. What is a boy to do? I find it offputting being watched at the best of the times, but having my puppy running in tight circles around me is rather more than I can cope with. Our Mistress has discussed it with her, but to no avail. She doesn\u2019t even seem to know why she\u2019s started doing it. That\u2019s puppies for you. One day when she\u2019s older we\u2019ll remind her of this and she\u2019ll be embarrassed about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
