Good morning beautiful Topsy. For some strange reason, that great big pile of bottles and tins were taken away yesterday, but it did make me feel a bit happier… seeing them just ignored two weeks ago made me feel awful. After I had brought the bins back round, I took my poor Mum her coffee much earlier than usual, but something was still stuck there waiting for me to get out the way. I went to see Molly and poor Percy, then I got out the way as quickly as I could, and went to the barbers. It was a nice cool walk there, off with my odd hair, then I had a nice long walk in to town. There were not many muttering odd humans around, and I managed to get almost everything that I went in there for… the only things that I could not get were carrot cakes and lemon slices, still at least everyone else can have a good feed. There is a great big pile of shopping being delivered in four days time, with great lumps of pork, bacon, loads of pies, tins of cream, and piles and piles of other things I cannot think of. It was difficult walking back here with so much shopping, then when I got to the gates, I saw that black and white cat. I tried to call him over, and even shook some biscuits that I had bought for Molly, but he just ran away. Still, things were fine, that was until I stepped through the door, and found out that something was waiting for me to get out of its way, as it was waiting to come down the hallway. It was almost an hour before midday, and it had had three hours to do so, but waited for useless me to get back. At least poor Percy was still in the kitchen, and had not been shoved out. I put everything away as quickly as I could, and then got up here out of that blasted things way… I had not got sat down before I heard the distant rumblings of it going down the hallway. An hour later, I went back down there again, and yet again the blasted thing was waiting for me to get out of its way, and I had to let poor Percy out. He wanted to finish his food first, then out he went, then after making my poor Mum her tea, I was back up here. I had to get out the way quickly in the late afternoon, as something was waiting to be fed. Then I had to get out the way so quickly in the evening, as more food was probably waiting to be grabbed, I had just enough time to get some country slices from the fridge. Six country slices for my dinner little girl, Molly ate better than I did yesterday, and the day before, and the day before that. I would have liked some babybel when I went down there to get out the way with Molly last night, but I forgot. I had to get out the way so quickly, my only concern was getting Molly up here before she was trampled on. When I got in here, that was it, I could not go down there again, as something would be barging up and down the hallway non-stop. I was hoping for a good night, and when I got in bed, I was soon asleep, but of course, I was soon awake again. I must have woke up at least eight times during the night because of one thing or another, and when I woke up this morning, I just wanted to go back to sleep. I could not do that though, as poor Percy and George would be waiting for their food, so I got up, and went down there to feed them. George came whirring in as soon as I opened the garden doors, and as I went to open the gates for poor Percy, he came purring along, and rubbed himself around my legs. As soon as I got in with him, I gave them their food, let George out with ham when she had finished, gave poor Percy his usual, then got up here out the way again. I went back down there to see how Percy was doing, then when I took my poor Mum her coffee, it started all over again, as something was stuck there waiting for me to get out of its way. I went back down to the kitchen to give poor Percy some more food, then back up here I got out of the blasted way. Sometimes, I feel like jumping out of that big window little girl, I just do not know what is holding me back… probably cowardice, the evil old ogre always called me a gutless coward when I was a kid. I love you Topsy, and I miss you too little girl.
