Another Lazy Weekend

For some reason it didn't occur to me that there would be fireworks on Saturday night, too. There were. We spent much of the night in the same arrangement as Friday--with G sticking close to me and P sticking close to G.

Overall, it's been a very sleepy and lazy weekend. Yesterday morning Grammy came by to work on the garden some and Groundy was VERY well-monitored. She got lots of treats (G, not Grammy) and pets, but stayed inside with me for most of the gardening.

In the afternoon, we took a walk with Tippy. I went over to get him and spent a good long time calling him and getting more and more nervous when he didn't come from wherever he was hiding before I remembered that he's deaf. Finally, I found him sleeping upstairs. Both dogs were very polite on our little stroll around the neighborhood and put a herd of barking corgis to shame.

Yesterday was so so nice and cool. I even left the door to the back porch open for most of the early morning. Purrcy and Bilbo were beside themselves, and even though they could now come and go as they pleased, they still liked to reowwww and creep by the window respectively.

This morning P caught yet another bird and left it on the roof of the van. It took some fancy tricks, but I got it down. If you're keeping track, that's: 3 birds, 1 snake and a creature. I never did find the creature again after I saw him carrying it around. I sort of hope I never do (actually, I entirely hope it).

P is such a smart guy, that I think the last bird was actually a gift for you all. He knows you'll come home in the van and was hoping to leave it there as a surprise--sorry for ruining his plan...

Cozy after another stressful night
Also, Ghog is SIGNIFICANTLY less itchy. I would even say she is just normal-for-her itchy and is shedding only a normal amount, too. I am so happy that she seems more comfortable.

We hope you guys had a great time in Ireland! Fáilte ar ais!

  1. Purrcy has never before left a present on the van. He is in rare form.

  2. He is. I am glad I saw him drop it up there--anything else would have been extra unpleasant.
