Rude Awakening

We had a rude awakening. It was 5 minutes past 4. It was still very dark outside. Jasper had just helped himself to some of the supper we had left out for him.  He had bolted it down too quickly and, having galloped upstairs, he promptly vomited the lost over our bedroom carpet - in various deposits around the room. That was it. We were awake. The light went on and we both set about the process of cleaning it up and spraying it with a cleaner that enable us to do a deep clean come the morning. Diane managed to go back to sleep. I didn't.

Eventually, it was time to get up for coffee and start on the overnight news and emails. I then set about the pile of ironing before heading for the study to catch up on the accounts and attack the carpet with the spot cleaner. To be fair, it did a good job and the carpet looks fine again now. The rest of the morning was filled with other chores.

This afternoon was spent with our books.
