Paddling pool<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our paddling pool has arrived. Of course the weather is now so bad that if we put it outside it would be full without any help from a hose pipe. Mum knew that if she got us a pool the weather would change and she was right \u2013 sorry! I\u2019ve asked if she can set it up anyway, so I can get used to it being around and dip a paw in now and then. Mum says I need to be patient. She\u2019s explained that if she just leaves it out it will end up with things growing in it. That sounded quite fun to me, but apparently if it gets slippery that might be dangerous. I\u2019m going to start checking the weather forecast every morning so I can be ready with my beach towel when it improves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Squirrel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The squirrel is getting bolder by the day. To my frustration yesterday it came to look into the office from the outside of the window. He had climbed up the fence behind the office and then jumped onto the window ledge. It is a very athletic squirrel. I\u2019m just a bit concerned that the way things are going it isn\u2019t just our bone that it\u2019s trying to carry off but is now casing the joint to see what else we might have that he would like. I\u2019m willing to offer him one or two of Shadow\u2019s broken toys as long as he\u2019ll leave mine alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Photo opportunity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The things Mum expects me to do for a photo opportunity. Never have I said that I wanted to give Sloth a piggy back. Sloth is Mum\u2019s toy and not mine. She\u2019s got him to be her car passenger when Dad\u2019s away as he reminds her of Dad. At the moment he\u2019s sitting in the office as we\u2019re not going anywhere in the car \u2013 Sloth that is, not Dad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
