We spend almost all our time together, but this last weekend she has had a few things on and hasn\u2019t been around so much. Obviously you\u2019ll understand that I was upset. I was also very pleased to see her when she came home on Saturday night and didn\u2019t want to let her out of my sight. I do understand she had to put the others to bed and that leaving me behind the hall gate was for my own safety so that Megan couldn\u2019t have a go at me, but I did not need my Master getting cross with me because I was crying. Was I really going to go off to bed and leave her behind downstairs? No I was not. There was no point telling me to \u2018shut up and go to bed\u2019 I was pining and being told off does not stop you pining. As soon as my Mistress came back I was fine and trotted off to bed like a good little fellow, at that point of course Ari started wailing that he couldn\u2019t be with her too and she did seriously think of going downstairs to fetch him after my Master fell asleep. However, there was a very serious risk that in his excitement at being invited upstairs he would have jumped on the bed and given my Master a bit of a shock. At the very least that would have got him sent back downstairs again so would have been counter-productive. I have now made my Mistress promise never to go out again. Well it was more that I said to her \u2018you won\u2019t ever go out without us again will you?\u2019 and she said \u2018We\u2019ll see\u2019 but that was better than saying she definitely would.<\/p>\n<p>Alfie Dog with a little help from Rosemary J Kind&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:alfie@alfiedog.me.uk\">alfie@alfiedog.me.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book is available at Amazon UK &#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B00583ZGSA\">https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B00583ZGSA<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can find short stories to read at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alfiedog.com\/\">www.alfiedog.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>My Mistress is my best friend.
