I wish we could all run away separately to different corners of the world and the a break for a few days… not think about cleaning the house, making the beds, taking more trips to glasgow and forget the wedding for a few hours. It's alright to dream, isn't it?
Anyway, I digress. Today Mother Dear and Meher took yet another trip to Glasgow- to pick up some more dresses belonging to a few guests who are coming to the wedding… Ayesha and I went into town to find shoes to match our dresses. NO LUCK. We went to five different shops- all filled with "Back To School" stuff and there wasn't a single decent pair of shoes. Since I don't enjoy shopping anyway, not having reaped any fruit (or shoes) from our trip, I left town in an irritable mood. On the way back home, Ayesha and I went into a local restaurant on a whim. The food was lovely but we had to take the dessert back home otherwise we would have been late for Jeju's carers leaving.
Jeju was in top form when we got back and watched Snow White with us- actually, Ayesha and I tried to watch Snow White whilst Jeju made the most noise she could- she laughed, blew raspberries and sang songs and every now and then tried to throw the television remote off the bed.
In the evening I went to Zumba and came back and took Poppet on a walk. We spotted a cat in our garden and I tried to encourage her to chase the intruder. But the silly dog was too caught up in smelling the grass and couldn't give a rat's ass about the cat.
I'm going to take it upon myself to teach Poppet some bad habits- she's way too decent. In the future, words in Poppet's vocabulary will include:
"ATTACK!"
"EXTERMINATE!"
and if i'm feeling less gracious than usual…
"ANNIHILATE!"
