Day 6

That was different!

Today started off with Leon letting us outside and feeding us. He's funny, you know. He tells jokes, describes what he's doing, asks what we want for breakfast - who does that?! - and even sings from time to time. He got everything cooking and set everything up, and he talked the entire time! We were going to ask where Jenny was, but we couldn't get a word in edgeways. Eventually, she appeared in the kitchen - turning up when the food is on. Clever girl!

And then after they ate, things went crazy!

Cleaning, washing, sorting, throwing stuff out, moving stuff around, putting things in new places, vacuuming, dusting. We tried to stay out of their way, but at the same time, we wanted to watch everything that was going on. Bad idea, because at one point, they tied feather dusters to our tails and put us to work!

We got a break when they carted a whole load of books off to some place called the Winnipeg Humane Society. Jenny was talking about a sale, so we were glad when they left us at home and only took the books!

Anyway, we were all pretty busy from daylight to dark, and before we knew it, we were fed and happy and sleepy. No Law and Order on Saturdays, but Whale Rider was pretty good. The singing whales helped us fall asleep.

All in all, a very different yet extraordinary day! I just hope they take it easy tomorrow. Going at that pace is exhausting.
