Sunday in the life of a K9

Another late start. Bosses went out last night to a 60th party which they both enjoyed. Boss(he) wakes up with a start and gets out of bed in a hurry as he thinks it's gone 7 o'clock. Why humans are so into this time thing never ceases to amaze me. Time is dictated by light and dark. When it's light you do what ever you need to and when it's dark you sleep. Why make it difficult. Problem is that humans are to busy doing and not enough being. Oh well, their choice.
Anyway weather looks fine and sunny and D is in fine fettle this morning so we are off at a good pace. Nothing to report on the walk as we see nothing and no one. Mist rising off the field looks good and gives one a real sense of the beauty of nature and life in general.

Some harsh word are said by boss(he) as it would appear that something he got the garage to done last year has gone again and also the drive shafts are getting near to needing replacing.Seems to me that cars are not only very expensive to get but then are expensive to own and all because the public transport system is so poor.

Off to Nan's again as her paint work needs rubbing down and cleaning before priming and top coating. All these different words to describe an action or something. Weather is holding out and bosses seem pleased with what they have done.

Back home and round D&M's. Boss(he) is going to repair the summer house roof as the felt has split with all the thermal movement ( bosses words not mine) Whilst (he) gets on with the roof, (she) starts doing the wood preserving of the decking and balustrade. Wow minor problem (he) has a problems as the ladder has shifted and he is clinging to the roof, doing an impression of spider man. Phew, all is well minor adjustments to ladder catch with hammer and up (he) goes again. Oh no not again. Just finishing screwing in the finials on the top and the ladder has shifted again and (he) is attempting to defy the law of gravity. To make matters worse it looks like he has pushed the screw driver through his bottom lip. Well at last he is down on the ground, badly bruised shins, ribs and skinned arms and a bloody lip. Cup of coffee and a biscuit seems to get him sorted. Well after all that excitement the rest of the afternoon and evening pass without incident. D says that he will take me out in the morning which means I can have a late start.
Boss(he) is muttering on about Northern Rock and all sorts of thing, must be shock or something coming out, according to boss(her). I will keep you posted speak tomorrow.
