At least, there are none that I know of and if there are any they have not invited me. No, today is the day that our Master comes home to see us all. Shadow is most excited, but then Shadow always gets excited and he is her human. I\u2019m excited because I haven\u2019t seen him since May. Wilma is excited\u2026 well, because she\u2019s Wilma and our Mistress is excited so that always affects Wilma. Then there is Alfie. We\u2019re waiting to see what happens with Alfie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dementia<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When our Master came home last time it took Alfie until the middle of the week to remember who he was, which was all a bit upsetting. It was then that our Master found that scratching Alfie\u2019s bottom did the trick. So guess how our Master will be greeting Alfie later today. There is going to be a big bottom scratching session. Some dogs get all the luck. Anyway, when our Mistress picks him up from the station and brings him home we will all be ready as a welcome party ready to jump all over him. I do hope he\u2019s ready and prepared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Return of the mud<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Mistress\u2019s clothes have stayed relatively dry through the summer as it has been so dry. Now the mud is well and truly coming back and we have been very happy to share it with her. It\u2019s odd, she\u2019s been pleased to find some mud too. She has something to test for cleaning our paws and has been thwarted by them not getting dirty. Now things are looking a lot better on that front, although the washing pile seems to be increasing all the same. Share and share alike, that\u2019s what I say!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a great Saturday<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aristotle<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a9 2018 Rosemary J.
