July 4th
Winter is here well and truly.
I went outside. I came back in.
Flossom went outside and came back with an entirely new hairstyle.
July 5th
Flossy has decided to write her memoirs.
She has been diligently writing a diary and now,
just because she has written a couple of entries she is convinced
there is a best selling novel to be made. So far Flossom’s
diary reads like this….
Monday
I slept all day after a large breakfast consisting
of ‘Festive Ham’, and then I woke up just in time
for dinner. Daddy came home soon after and I helped him clean
his plate, then we all went to bed together.
Tuesday
I had ‘Tasty Lamb’ for breakfast,
which I was sleeping off, when suddenly Mummy woke me. “Would
you like a piece of cheese Flossy?” she said. Would I?
It was the most exciting thing I’d heard all day. “Yes
Please Mummy” I said, enthusiastically prising the cheese
from her fingers, pretty soon after that it was time for dinner,
my tummy was rumbling, but that could also have been because
I was purring so loudly.
Daddy came home and gave me a big cuddle and
we sat and watched a stupid T.V. program about training dogs – I
can’t believe how stupid they are. Then we all piled
into bed….
Still, I’m thinking it has to be vaguely
more interesting the memoir or Paris Hilton.

Brent seems to have a bit of a ‘Man-Cold’ coming
on.
He was hacking and coughing up a storm.
When I asked him if he was ok, he said he was auditioning for
the Sound of Mucous.
July 7th 
I’ve turned into a computer nerd.
I’m not sure exactly when that transformation took place – somewhere
between discovering the mouse was not something cute and furry
and reading a book on C++ programming (Look, I read the title;
ok?).
I suspect, however, that I am almost certainly a fully fledged
computer nerd because I spent the whole day being excited over
the purchase of a 500 Gig External Hard Drive.

I’b got a cold.
It’s not bair that you hab to beel so crabby wheb you
hab a cold. I bean it’s obly a cold.
You should still be able to beel great so you can at least
ebjoy lyib ib the sub reading loads ob books. But I can’t
eben do that. By head hurts.
July 9th
I don’t DO ‘being sick’.
I’ve a rip snorter of a headache and about
as much energy as a piece of laundry lint.
All I can do is lie on the couch covered in cats
and snooze in the sun, which would normally be very a very
pleasant way to spend a few hours, but for the relentless aching
head.
One of the ‘Karens’ kindly gave
me a load of gossip magazines to help pass the time but one
look at ‘It’s a GIRL for the pregnant MAN’ was
enough to send me rushing to the toilet.
