I was expecting to tell you today that I was at my grandparents and that we\u2019d set off on holiday. Unfortunately, we aren\u2019t and we haven\u2019t. Shadow is ill. Poor thing she has pancreatitis and is really not feeling very well at all. She is confined to the kitchen until she stops leaving a nasty mess everywhere. Mum is doing her best to look after her with a lot of help from our lovely vet. Mum says that in this heat we can\u2019t take Shadow anywhere until she\u2019s happy that her fluid levels will be all right. There\u2019s that and the fact that hotels would not take kindly to some of the necessary clearing up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">All packed up and no place to go<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mum had already got most of the stuff packed when Shadow said she didn\u2019t feel well. There didn\u2019t seem much point in unpacking so we\u2019re sort of camping at home until we can set off. I\u2019m trying to camp in a different room to Shadow as although obviously I do care about her a great deal, right now she smells pretty bad. Mum told me to be more tolerant, but that\u2019s easy for her to say she\u2019s sitting some distance from Shadow too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re going to miss out on seeing Granny and Grandpa now on this trip and I\u2019m really sad about that. Mum was so looking forward to seeing them. I hope she can go to see them soon. They have video calls, but it really isn\u2019t the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who\u2019s been sleeping in my bed<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_6048.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_6048-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14784\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_6048-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_6048.jpg 338w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>It was really funny the other day. Mum was feeling quite tired and when Dad rang her the nearest comfy thing to hand was one of our beds, so she simply lay down in that. Aristotle wasn\u2019t impressed and said that unless she moved over so he could get in too then he was just going to have to jump on her. She happily made room for him and I think they were both quite comfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>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.
