After yesterdays travelling ordeal, today was a day of relaxation, which meant that I spent it curled up in a comfy blanket and sleeping.
It was already dark outside when my realized that I needed some yummy treat for Sunday. My mommie thought that was a good idea and sent me out scavenging. Well not scavenging exactly as she gave me some money and asked for some ice cream but it sounds more exiting that way :-)
After I found a little shop I quickly chose a nice box full of yummy ice cream (cookie flavoured he he). But when I wanted to pay they told me that the money my mommie gave me wasn’t enough so I had to sing a little song. The shop clerk was very impressed and gave me the ice cream for free, he even kept shouting “hold that sheep with the ice cream he’s getting away”. I presume he wanted an autograph, but I didn’t have time to stop as I was getting hungry.
But before I could return I had another obstacle to overcome. There was a very steep stairwell to master and the Ice Cream was just too heavy. So I sat down and meditated until I came up with a brilliant solution! I opened the box and ate half the ice cream, after that it was light enough to be carried upstairs.
Hooray.
