Mum has got it into her head that we should all learn a new\ntrick. She might have used the word \u2018skill\u2019 when she put it to us, but it\namounts to much the same thing. Now the question is what shall we learn? Aristotle\u2019s\nfirst question was actually \u2018Do I have to?\u2019 but that didn\u2019t get him very far. I\nhave to be honest and say I do quite fancy the idea. I rather like learning.\nMost things I can pick up quickly as long as she makes clear what she wants me\nto do and as long as I get a reward at the end. She has suggested two for me. \u2018Bed\u2019\nin which I have to go and lie on a particular mat or bed when she says so of \u2018Box\u2019\nwhere I have to put something she gives me into a box. I think we\u2019ll start with\nBed and if I get that one we\u2019ll move on to Box. It\u2019s going to be fun getting\nthe treats if nothing else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apparently we might get some sunshine today, so Mum says she wants some time outdoors. She is feeling very tired and thinks some fresh air and sunshine will do her good. Of course, we\u2019re all volunteering to join her. I\u2019m hoping it\u2019s going to mean the chance of a good walk as well as some sitting around in the garden. I don\u2019t think she\u2019s strictly speaking planning to just sit around, but that is what we have in mind. Aristotle has got it down to an art form. I find it rather harder and seem to need to move much more. Alfie just fancies a bit of a nap in the sun and Shadow says she gets too warm, so she\u2019ll look at the sunshine from the comfort of the shade. One way or another we will all quite enjoy it though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
