Our new house has lots of stairs. And I mean lots and lots. The garage is at ground level, but then the rest of the house is on three more levels above that. It\u2019s all about living on a hillside. On the plus side it means great views and on the downside it means lots of stairs and a cow! Ok, the cow is not strictly connected with the stairs, but it is on next door\u2019s porch and it\u2019s orange\u2026 and I don\u2019t like it! I barked at it. Mum had to go and sit on the floor at the nearest point to the cow and then get me to come and sit with her to see the cow was ok. How can it be ok \u2013 it\u2019s orange! I guess I\u2019ll get used to it but I\u2019m not really sure at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Mountain Walk<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/IMG_5624.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/IMG_5624-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Wilma and her human sit down for the first time in the new house\" class=\"wp-image-14430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/IMG_5624-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/IMG_5624.jpg 338w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Our first sit down in the new house<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Today, thankfully, is more about me and less about boxes. At least this morning is. I\u2019m starting with a lovely mountyin walk, hopefully meeting Megan One and Falk. This Megan is not my aunt. She is the first puppy that Mum was going to have and call Megan, but because her tail curled too much she never came to live with Mum in the end. I think I\u2019m lucky to be called Wilma, rather than Megan Three! Anyway, Falk is not only Megan\u2019s Dad but is also the father of Shadow\u2019s third litter. I\u2019ve got to remember to send him Shadow\u2019s best wishes and tell him how his children in England are doing. I might just be too excited because of the mountain views. Mum got too excited looking at the views yesterday and nearly ended up on a level crossing when the barriers came down, so I know how important it is not to get carried away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love Wilma<\/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.
