We\u2019re containing our excitement but it isn\u2019t easy. Dad is more than half way through his quarantine and we\u2019re all getting excited. He has to do one more Covid_19 test on Tuesday and as long as that comes back negative then he can be part of the family again. I shall be waiting outside his room, ready to welcome him. Ari and Shadow will have to wait downstairs to say hello, but they are going to be just as excited as I am if not more. Dad can\u2019t wait either. I think shutting himself away is starting to wear a bit thin. Actually, what he\u2019s really upset about is that the internet connection isn\u2019t so good in the room he\u2019s in and there is no television.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of course there will be good and bad to the changes. On the bright side we will all get to spend our evenings in the lounge curled up in front of the television. We don\u2019t tend to do that when it\u2019s just Mum and us. On the downside, Mum says they have a long list of jobs that need doing and I for one am not putting my paw up for those. I might grudgingly offer to help with the outdoor ones, but I\u2019m not certain, besides that\u2019s Ari\u2019s domain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mum has promised they will go out for some walks as soon as she\u2019s well enough. Hopefully that will be soon. If she walked far now she\u2019d be asleep for the rest of the day, which isn\u2019t ideal. It\u2019s time to be positive though. There are times that believing everything is going to be better is half the battle and we\u2019re all working on that right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So our motto for the week \u2013 Believe that better times are Just around the corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
