It’s been a week of drama, meeting all friends, meeting new friends and time to say good bye to an old friend.
Rico has really got himself into mummy’s and daddy’s naughty books. You won’t believe what he’s done. Wednesday night after dinner, Rico and I went out for our usual light stroll around the estate. I came in at my usual time of 8.00pm, but no Rico.
Time ticked on and still no Rico. It was time for bed for me and still no Rico. Mummy and daddy went to bed leaving the cat door open. I heard daddy get up at 1.30am calling and looking for Rico. Finally at about 2.30am on daddy’s second attempt, he nabbed Rico and threw him at mummy who then put him into my room.
The next day, Rico slept on mummy’s and daddy’s bed all day. Rico, again after dinner repeated his performance, and didn’t come in until 3.00am !!! This, gave me two nights of interrupted beauty sleep.
Since then, mummy and daddy have made sure that Rico stays in after dinner. I of course, being more mature, can come and go as I please.
This week has been that start of daddy teaching at school and a full week at home. So many friends to see. Daddy asked them if they missed him. They said, “No, we missed Zara !!!”. Some new students have started and I have been there to greet them…as it should be.
As some of you, may remember the old cottage where we used to live. There was an old white partially blind and deaf dog named Billy. At first, we didn’t get along, but since we moved here, we’ve been getting along better :-) Billy’s owner, came here the other day and told us that Billy has gone to Doggy Heaven ! Bye-bye old friend…
DR TOOT has been very busy with instruments coming in from all around NZ. Today, a gentleman, his wife and daughter drove all the way from Hamilton (yes, another Hamilton customer !), to pick up a beautiful pre-loved Yamaha wooden clarinet from Japan. She was so happy to have it and promised DR TOOT that she would soon have a name for it.
It’s Valentine’s Day and it’s been a busy one for me. So many admires and only of me to share. I am tired and time for bed. If you are one of the many, that sent me a Valentine card, I like to say thank you. There is simply not enough time to write and thank all my admires….I noted that Rico got none….
