Flynn's story - Up to so much mischief.....

and I am loving every minute of it!!!  The only time I am good is when I am playing football.


 
 
I will be six months soon.....I have learnt lots of things.  LOL one thing my Mum has taught me is how to beg for a cuddle and I have got that off to a tee.  I pretend I am going to take her shoe and she says "you won't get any cuddles if you take my shoe"!!!

Well what do I do - ha I drop the shoe on the floor, sit promptly down, point my chin to the ceiling and stick my tongue out just a little bit, so when my Mum bends to cuddle me, I kiss the tip of her ear.  She doesn't like her face licked, hates it she says.....so I don't.......

I don't chew shoes now, I just take Mums and hide it somewhere.  She gets annoyed when she can't find it.  I would rather her slippers, but she now puts them right out of my reach.  Oh I didn't tell you, she has a new pair now, brand new got them for Xmas.  I had made such a mess of those nice silver ones, that they had to go in the bin!

I am getting too big for my sleep cage, I can't stretch out any more and if I stand up I hit the top which means in the morning when I get up I have to stretch and stretch.  I am getting another one, a bit bigger. Going to the pet shop tomorrow.  Mum wants me to sleep on the pet sofa instead of the cage at night, I have tried but I don't like it.  I lovely my cosy cage.

Mum hasn't taken any photos of me recently.  Her camera broke - each time she puts a new  battery into it, it says "battery empty".  So she went out and bought another one today.  But....until she reads the instruction leaflet on how to use it, there won't be any more pictures. 

So thats it for me tonight,  I am off to have my sleep now and see you all another time.

Its the thought that counts.....

I had an unexpected call today.  Unfortunately I was out......

I never expect anything if I do someone a favour......mind this was a huge favour....this was not someone I knew then either.........and this was done last May.  Yes thats right eight months ago!!! 

This is what I received -


 
Don't they look yummy and so well presented too.  You might notice that some are missing.  Thats because I have started on them already.

If I had been younger this box would have only lasted five minutes.  Now that I am older I have to watch how much sugar I consume. 

Best hide them away, because there is not just me in this house.....shhhhh....won't say where just in case. 

Receiving those was a surprise....May be not entirely - you see sometimes I know whats going to happen (or my conscious does) - just little things, nothing major - not like knowing lottery numbers or who is going to win the races, not anything like that. 

Yesterday I was sorting through some paperwork, and a piece of paper fell on the floor.  When I picked it up it was this guy (who bought the chocolates) telephone number.  I looked at it and thought that I never heard from him since May, do I really want his number, no I don't, so I threw it in the bin.  But I promptly took it out again and put it in my desk drawer. 

Now what did that mean?  Here he is on my doorstep - eight months later with a box of chocolates for me!

Its the thought that counts.....does it matter how long it takes to think.

Flynn's Story - I have grown!

Mum hasn't written about me for such a long time, since October actually.  She went away for a month and left me with Dad, so she has no idea what I got up to then.  But, boy was I pleased to see her when she came home one month later.  I could not stop jumping all over her and trying to sit on Mum's lap.  The problem was I had grown and I now kept slipping off.




 Here I am again when I arrived on 3rd October.


And here I on 12th October
 


 And the 17th October
 And the 21st October

 And the 25th December.....look I am now a young dog

 And here I am again - oh you should have seen what I did with Mum's slipper.  I just loved the colour, it was glimmery silver with lots of fluff and bobbles.  I knew I was doing wrong because Mum kept raising that rolled up newspaper and that means I just gone too far.

 
I just love the garden - when I am not investigating behind bushes and sheds I play lots of football.  I have two footballs - One gets kicked to me and I crouch down to catch it on my chest and then I wait for the other ball to be kicked and I push one aside so that I can catch the other.  And then I rush off down the garden with one ball in my mouth and wait for the second ball to be kicked towards me again.  So much fun......
Here I am again.  I did not know my photo was being taken, as Mum was taking it from inside the house.  She says she had to do about 50 shots before she got me in it.  Because I was rushing about so fast, one shot just had my tail in it, some didn't have me in it at all!

My Dad is losing weight!  I am not surprised cause my day is full (Dad gives me three walks a day - not short ones - we walk for miles) and then a couple hours football in the garden - its a big garden!  Not forgetting me playing indoors.  I have another ball for that and I just love pushing the ball through doors and around corners. I have also a massive chew bone to chew when I want to.  And I also go for long rides in the car!

I might rest during the day but I don't sleep just in case I miss out on something.  But at 6 pm I am ready for bed, so my Dad (or Mum) tuck me up in my sleep cage and I would sleep all night til breakfast, but my Dad wakes me at 2 p.m. to go outside for the toilet.  When I have been I do not make a fuss, I hop straight into the cage and fall asleep in no time at all til morning.

Dad and Mum don't need an alarm clock - I make sure they are up and ready to get my breakfast at 6.30 a.m.  I don't bark or whine, I just tap on the cage with my paw. 

Well thats it for today....I got lots more to tell you - but I have to pose for more photos first. See you soon...
