At some point, I will no doubt get back to talking about music, and books and truly exciting things, but sadly, no not today. Tho I am of the opinion that just because nothing is going on and I am stuck in the country ( instead of attending movie premiers and touring around with Duran Duran, and writing best selling Werewolf novels and hanging in Tasmania like my more exciting friends ) with all these animals, that is no reason not to tell you all about it.
Cabel did well yesterday. He didn’t exactly admit that Zoe isn’t so bad and, really, he does love her, but, hey, he didn’t kill her. Progress I say. He obeyed, but QUIVERED the whole time as if to say “LOOK IT IS A CAT I CAN KILL IT FOR YOU! YOU ARE SO WEIRD WHY ARE YOU STOPPING ME!”
He also did very very well in his Canine Good Citizen class. Then prom ply came home and chased a herd of deer across the road, across the field, thru the woods….I could not leave this Doofus to his own romping, as it was getting DARK and there is the road and all, so I spent the better part of an hour and a half hiking in the dark, calling him.
Had to laugh tho, when he finally came back he had the biggest grin on his dog face and said” H there you are! Isn’t this the BEST???”
Oh.
No.
Merry Housekeeper just rang my doorbell. And handed me a SLIP from the post office.
She is generally most willing to pick up most packages but this slip says simply….
BEES HERE.
No. Says she.
Ok. I can do this. Go to the post office and pick up three boxes of Bees.
Call the Birdchick. Birdchick is banding birds somewhere in Minnesota.
What next? Tea. Clearly a cup of tea. No Milk. Ok.
Nice neighbours next door do things like go to the grocery store, I am sure of it. They will have milk. Excellent. Now I have tea.
(Meanwhile, Merry Housekeeper, unable to restrain herself, has dusted the entire first floor of my house and has moved on to vacuuming, while waiting for me to get my act together. Cool.)
Back to Bees.
I do love my job and truly, but I can’t help but wonder how many Personal Assistants to Serious Talent out there are called upon to do things like, Go To The Post Office and Pick Up Bees…..
To be continued…
Love and Bees,
Lorraine
