Notes From Grace: Little Bats

Hi G-Fans!

Well, I know, "we" missed an entry.

I was more than ready, the concierge just couldn't follow through...

First it was wait until she did this, then it was wait until she did that, before I knew it she was swaddled up in a cozy blanket passed out on the couch thinking about dessert.....

She didn't get up until after midnight, at which point she made the executive decision (which is most certainly not in her pay grade) to do the blog in the morning with me. Well, you know how that went. It was the same thing all over again. First let me do this, then it was let me do that, and before I knew it she was having brunch with Harry's older human sister and his concierge and then she took off to do errands.

Then she came back for five minutes, left again. Then we had our very late walk after our late supper. And another glorious sunny breezy day came to an end. I didn't let her off the hook tonight. She did fall asleep, but I stared at her until she got up again, and snorted and sighed so she would get to work.

The things I have to go through for service around here.

So, to let you know about our walks.

We saw a spectacular sunset Friday night. We left late for the bog, but brought our headlamps for the way home, just to make sure we had nothing creep up on us....

We saw a couple of bats, but the night was a tad cool, so we didn't see a lot.

Tonight we left even later, but had Harry and his concierge in tow. We didn't bring headlamps.

It was a warmer night and we saw many more cute little bats, and some of them swooped pretty close to our heads. It was very exciting, let me tell you! Raphael was particularly jazzed up. The concierge had zero patience for him tonight, however. He stayed on a short leash (kind of like going on the short bus for school I would imagine) for most of the walk "to keep him under wraps" as the concierge would say.

He got feisty with humans (just excited barking), but the concierge was fed up and let him know it was unacceptable. As long as the leash stayed short, he managed to be gentlemanly. When he had some leeway, he was obnoxious. So, short it was...

The itchies have returned for Raphael and Tessa, so far the spread of red bumps has been kept at bay, but there is scratching going on even with internal and external treatments.

Always something these days....

Today (or was it yesterday?) Tess and I had a grand time digging our way to the inner core of the earth. The part we didn't like was getting our beards cleaned off by the concierge, she is such an angry elf lately. Very irritable. We are going to have a talk if it doesn't dissipate soon. I suspect it might be the hot itchies she has too. So she Raphael and Tess are all having skin irritation from an unknown source. Maybe I need to check on all that and take charge.

Anyway,

Sorry for the delayed message and silence....

I will be more proactive with the concierge and make sure her distractions include me and my blog...!

May your distractions add a fullness to your life, that enhancers your life and doesn't diminish your existence.....

TTFN!
