My stocking is already hanging up for Santa Paws. Dad will fly home tomorrow andMum says I can wait up to see him. She has said if I\u2019m good I can go to the station with her to pick him up, which I love doing. He will have come from work, so I have to remember that I must under no circumstances jump up. The problem is that I see him and am overwhelmed by excitement and just can\u2019t stop myself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m not dreaming of a white Christmas but I\u2019m\ndefinitely dreaming of a white new year. I do hope there will be some snow when\nI get to Switzerland this time. There was some but I think it\u2019s gone again and\nthe forecast is a bit warmer, so I really don\u2019t know what to expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Walks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I had a lovely muddy walk yesterday. Mum has\nbeen sorting through lots of her winter clothes and finding out what needs\nthrowing out. It\u2019s amazing the things she keeps. She found out why she hadn\u2019t\nworn her duffel coat for ages when it turned out it had a broken zip. I guess a\nheavy coat is a bit pointless if you can\u2019t do it up. She really is very bad at\nthrowing things out, so I was helping her. She found a leotard she hasn\u2019t worn for\nabout 25 years, that she was saving in case she ever needed it. Really? At her\nage! Anyway, it turned out all the elastic had gone so it was pointless her\nkeeping it anyway. I bet it wouldn\u2019t have fitted her in any case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Deliveries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I need to take up position near the back door\nto be on paw to help with all the incoming deliveries. It turns out the\ninternet is invaluable for people who would rather spend all their time with\ntheir dogs rather than going round shops. Mum says it would be a different\nmatter if she could take me, but most places don\u2019t let me go in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a great Monday<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a9 2018 Rosemary J.
