Oh I know she has been the one doing her best to take care of our Mistress. I would have done if I could. I can\u2019t sleep next to her because of the stairs. And of course because Alfie would have a tantrum, but I\u2019d like to. I\u2019m not as good as taking care of someone as the girls are, but I\u2019d try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, what I\u2019m building up to telling you is that Wilma has a new bed. It\u2019s not just any old bed, it\u2019s a special one raised off the floor so that she doesn\u2019t get sore eyes. Our Mistress did try moving a spare chair over for her to sleep on, but two things went wrong with that plan. Firstly our Mistress stubbed her toe on it when she got up in the night and secondly Wilma slept on the floor because the chair wasn\u2019t big enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What about me?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I can\u2019t use the excuse of sore eyes and to be frank I do rather dig my bed up and rearrange it, but I\u2019d quite like a new one too. I think once someone has put it together I might ask to try it and see if that\u2019s the sort I\u2019d like. It looks rather fun and even has its own special cushion. Once It\u2019s built I\u2019ll see if I can get a photo of it to show you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Loft<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yesterday we all had to stand by while our Mistress went into the loft. \u201cAristotle,\u201d she said, \u201cif I\u2019m not back out in half an hour then send a search party.\u201d Right, so if I can\u2019t do the normal stairs easily, how on earth does she think I\u2019m going to climb the loft ladder. I just sat downstairs and listened carefully for signs of impending disaster. She eventually emerged with a mouldy coffee machine, which has been consigned to the tip, and various empty but very filthy boxes that I question the wisdom of using. Seriously, I think humans hoard much too much rubbish!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Happy Saturday<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aristotle<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book as well as our other books are available&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/s\/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;field-keywords=rosemary%20j%20kind\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a9 2018 Rosemary J.
