Day 7

Never a dull moment around this place. Every time you turn around, something new is happening.

Day started as normal - outside and breakfast, with Leon leading the charge - and then a big noisemaker came out. Scared the pants off us both when it started up, and we raced outside until it was all over. It was big and yellow and picked up dust and stuff. Fortunately it was gone by the time we came back in, but Jenny and Leon seemed to be fizzgigging around, making sure the place was clean and tidy. Then they settled down in the kitchen to cook some delicious crispy bacon ... ah, what a treat, although not for us, as it turned out.

Enter the visitor. Of course, Mojo turned all Protecto and growled, barked, and ran away ... his usual stuff, which, in my mind, completely contradicts everything he said in his blog entry. Why would he go to all that trouble if he wasn't feeling the need to defend his new territory? Think about it, people!

Anyway, Miriam was really nice, and petted me as soon as she got in the door. She tried to make friends with Mojo, but he wasn't having a bar of it - until she stopped looking at him. I kid you not. Whenever Miriam looked at Moj, he ran away; when she wasn't looking, he crept closer. Not sure if he was trying to get a better view, or hoping to lull her into a false sense of security so he could scare her into leaving. Either way, it didn't work ... and I was glad it didn't 'cause I got all the attention!

Miriam stayed, everyone talked, the bacon slowly disappeared - although none dropped on the floor for us as I was hoping it would. Still, there was lots of time for cuddles afterward - Miriam even sat on the floor with me and talked to me for a bit. Once again, Moj missed out. Silly boy, although instead of acting all indifferent, he seemed to be a little bit sad. Could it be he's changing his tone?????!!!!! Smaller miracles have happened.

Oh well. After Miriam left, the others sat down and we all spent the afternoon doing nothing. Nothing, I say. Imagine that. After all the activity of the past two days, they would completely give up and do nothing. Why the heck can't they be like that all the time?

Last thing I remember is learning something about brothers and sisters on the TV. But neither Moj nor I could keep our eyes open for very long, and were fast asleep before you could say ....

Sure hope Monday is quiet. We've got lots of sleeping to catch up on.
