I\u2019m getting excited about seeing my friends today. Salvo and Izzy will be here later this morning. The good news is that it won\u2019t already be too hot by then for us to have a little fun. Ari won\u2019t be allowed to play with them, as his leg isn\u2019t so good and he\u2019s finding things hard at the best of times. Me, on the other paw, I just can\u2019t wait. I\u2019ve had to promise we\u2019ll try not to end up in the pond. Mum has found the old plastic pool, not the one eaten by mice, and says if we want to go in water we can go in that. I don\u2019t think I should show them where my apples are. They both have to be careful what they eat and I wouldn\u2019t like to be accused of making them poorly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ari is happy about the lower temperatures for a few days as he\u2019s been able to get out into the garden a little more. He\u2019s been feeding the herbs and vegetables and giving them a good water. Some of them are struggling with the heat as much as we are, but despite him asking Mum he is not being allowed to move them all into her bedroom where the air-conditioning unit is set up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When it\u2019s really hot next week we\u2019re going to turn the bedroom into our den. Mum says she will join us in there and we\u2019ll all have a lovely day away from the heat. I\u2019m quite looking forward to it, although I may get a little bored by the end of the time in there. I suppose it won\u2019t be so bad of Mum doesn\u2019t mind having all our toys around for the days too. Then I spotted a watermelon that she\u2019s bought to share with us. I wonder how much mess we would make with slices of frozen watermelon on her bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
