John is in the kitchen on his computer. He says he's doing his e mail but when I went in a bit ago he was eyeing sweaters in a catalogue. He'd best watch it or I'll buy him one.
It occurs to me that I forgot to mention the acquisition of the second Great Dane. I wandered off to South Africa where my ability to fit into small spaces in cars is sincerely appreciated- blissfully unaware that my daughter was on the road to the dog breeder.
When I arrived home I found not one mantle Great Dane "puppy" but two.
She got another one. This one is called Grover and he's trouble. It's not just that he's younger than Skype, it's his rakish air. One ear seems permanently situated above the other. It's always cocked. He grins, leaps and lopes about the house in search of mischief. He finds it.
Winnie is quite taken with him and has reverted to her old ways. I came home one day to find an empty wrapper. When I left this once full container of chocolates was hidden behind a small fortress of books. Naturally John noticed nothing. He didn't see Winnie slinking around, belly close to the ground, Mickey looking guilty as hell or Grover's glazed over eyes.
What followed wasn't pretty.
