Month: March 2022

And just why is it that I can’t come to breakfast with you?  If Blue and Pip are allowed to go, why can’t I? I’d be good … I would.  But no, they make me stay here, home, all alone … without even a Lennie to keep me company, and Kermie has made himself scarce again as well.  Hmmm … such is the lot of this little Nigey.  (If I pour it on some more do you think the Mummies will take me next time – especially since they went out not once but twice today!)

The yard man still hadn’t been and the yard is starting to look like a jungle.  M Kaz should make another phone call and see what’s going on with Norm because at this rate Scotty is going to get here to do the garden beds before Norm does.  I know it was raining (which was why Norm was delayed – so many other yards to do) but it isn’t now and hasn’t been for a couple of days.

I helped M Kaz with her studies again today. I am so good to her!

There was a pretty big thunderstorm in the early hours of this morning but it had more or less gone by the time we all got up.  I may have been a little scared by the storm so it was good there was room at M Sooz’s feet for me to snuggle up there.
It’s good there, especially as M Sooz has started turning her electric blanket on again … it’s better than a heat pack for helping ease her back pain.  She has a fair bit of that … poor her.

I haven’t seen Lennie for a while  … and I’m keeping a look-out out of all the windows for them almost every chance I get – I’m trying not to let it cut into my napping time though – or the time I spend writing my blog, or helping M Kaz with her studies.  I think she must have had a breakthrough with those studies today because she’d been in there for nearly three hours working … working … working … when she fist-pumped the air (I think that was what that was) and did a happy dance and there was as little sing-songy thing as well because she had finally managed to get the program she has been working on to do what she wanted it to do.  Yep, she was pretty happy.  I was glad I was able to help her too – I don’t think she would have been able to do it without me keeping her on task because she does have a tendency to get side-tracked and distracted sometimes. 

The person who’s going to do the yard still hasn’t been here – even though it has stopped raining.  This means I still haven’t been able to go outside… and the Mummies know I really want to! I hope M Kaz gives him another call soon to make sure he hasn’t forgotten about us.

Kermie’s back!  Kermie’s back. I was talking to him through the window this evening and he doesn’t seem any the worse for wear.  I wonder where he goes to when he’s not hanging around out the front.  Not sure where Lennie has gone to though… we haven’t seen him for a couple of days now.  Rain … rain … come back and bring Lennie with you!  Speaking of rain, we have had clear blue skies for most of the last three days.  It has been a nice change.  I’m hoping it stays dry because that means the kitty litter M Kaz dropped on the front stoop will dry out enough for her to scoop up and put in the rubbish.  I hope it’s soon because it looks like someone had a different kind of accident out there and every time I look out there I feel a little bit off-colour.

It was very exciting yesterday.  The Mummies went out to lunch to help Aunty M celebrate her birthday.  They let me help with the birthday card – and that was good – I like feeling helpful.  And then M Kaz let me help with the present wrapping – it’s not easy working with fur and sticky tape… and don’t even get me started on the fun we had with the scissors!  (Since there’s an exclamation point there, you should be able to tell that it wasn’t really fun!)  But is was all worth it.  Aunty M had a good day on her birthday.

We are waiting for Norm (the yard man) to come to do the yard so I can go out again.  At the moment it looks as though it’s up to my shoulder blades – and the weeds are even taller.  Yep, better I don’t go out there and get lost.
