I thought the rain had gone, but I was wrong. It bucketed down last night and again this morning, while M Kaz was out and about – yes, that would be when she was down at the Broadwater for her walk and morning photo session. It didn’t rain heavily, but enough for her to get caught out in it and to realise that her backpack may not be entirely waterproof. Hmmmm.
What I was doing while she was out? I was sleeping at the foot of her bed – stretched out – which I can’t do while she’s in there as well. I do try to section off as much room as I can but her feet are bigger than mine and I am always a little worried that she will forget I am there and send me hurtling off the bed. Well, no, it hasn’t happened yet, but a Nigey can’t be too careful.
Now that I think about it, yes, they are still watching Midsomer Murders – they’re up to Season 16 now, and Barnaby has a new sidekick – and he and Sarah have a baby on the way. They miss Jones, but since they’ve already watched the whole series before, they know that he will be back – just for one episode, but they’re looking forward to that.
Aunty M has been coming around to watch television with the Mummies. They had been watching ‘Queens of Mystery’, which they all seemed to enjoy, but they have now watched all two seasons of that – and have now moved on the ‘Madam Blanc Mysteries’ and, can you believe it, the second episode wasn’t about solving a murder – it was a completely dfferent type of mystery. M Kaz said she likes it because she learns ‘stuff’ – like the meaning of ‘Ellie in a Nightie’ which is nothing like ‘a pig in a blanket’ or ‘Nigey on a towel’.
M Kaz is now disappearing for hours at a time out the front. At first I thought she was going out, but it seems she is actually clearing out the garage/shed. I know this now because M Sooz was saying the other day that it was getting a bit colder and she thought she needed some heavier covers on the bed. When M Kaz came back in after her shed session yesterday, she had a blanket, a duvet cover and a duvet for her. Just as well she hadn’t gone out there with the express intention of finding them because we all know that that would never have happened. We’re all hoping it will be a different scenario when she’s finished decluttering and reorganising out there. I’m hoping she will get to move some of the clutter out of my bedroom and stow it out there or send it on its way. I don’t really care either way.
