It looks like I’m in trouble again. All this self-isolation is all very well until I start finding things to occupy myself. Apparently, I am not supposed to be digging in the garden using my own initiative. It turns out I am not supposed to be eating sticks either. Unfortunately, both of those activities were easily discovered by Mum. The hole in the grass rather gave away the digging. If it had not been for still having dirt under my claws I might have been able to claim it was Shadow. The stick was an altogether different matter. Mum didn\u2019t actually see me eating, however it turns out that a stick is hard to digest. Basically, I was caught pooing the stick I ate yesterday. That rather made it impossible to try to say it was one of the others. I have had to hold my paw up and admit what I\u2019d done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mum says it\u2019s time to start planting carrots. Normally that\nwould be a job Aristotle would help with, but given he\u2019s on crate rest I\u2019ve put\nmy paw up to help. I was a little disappointed to discover that at this stage\nthe carrots are no more than seeds. I\u2019d got it into my head there might be one\nor two I could eat, but it looks as though I\u2019m going to have an awfully long\nwait. With hindsight it would have been better to offer to help with putting\nthe shopping away instead. I really must learn to think through what the job\ninvolves before volunteering. It\u2019s left me wondering why Aristotle gets so\nexcited about helping with the gardening. It isn\u2019t as though I can dig a hole\nor eat a stick while Mum is actually watching. At least being outside I get\nmore time to run around like a mad thing which in itself has its advantages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wilma is in trouble again. Being praised for having initiative is fine.
