Actually, let\u2019s be honest, it was a lot sooner than the end of the day. It turns out if you shut three normally active dogs and an active human in a room for three days and turn the temperature up, tempers begin to flare. I wanted to go out. Mum wouldn\u2019t let me. I barked, Shadow barked. Shadow had no idea why she was barking but was feeling thoroughly fed up with it all. Ari spent a fair bit of time in his crate, otherwise he got on everybody\u2019s nerves. I said I\u2019d go in the crate if it meant having a biscuit, but he wasn\u2019t having any of that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teatime<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It took until teatime for us all to get really fed up. We didn\u2019t really know what to do with ourselves. It was so hot when we went out at lunch that Mum just marched us out and back again. By teatime I really wanted to stay out a little longer, but Mum wasn\u2019t having any of it. She told me to wait just another few hours and things would improve. I\u2019d run out of patience. To be fair, I don\u2019t have a lot of patience to begin with, so it runs out pretty quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In amongst all of that Mum\u2019s computer decided to go on the blink. She\u2019s known it\u2019s been temperamental for a while. She\u2019s had it for five years and she thinks my paws aren\u2019t as gentle on the keyboard as they might be. I only have to use her computer because Alfie\u2019s old computer fell apart in my paws. I\u2019m sure it wasn\u2019t my fault.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, Mum seems to think she\u2019s going to have to buy a new one and she hates changing computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Then evening came<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Oh the blessed relief when evening came and the temperature finally started to drop. I just wanted to stand outside and have it rain all over me. Mum didn\u2019t think that was such a good idea. She\u2019s promised that today we will have lots of outdoor time to make up for the insanity of the last few days. I can\u2019t wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>After being cooped up for several days we&#8217;re all getting fractious.
