In today's Christchurch Star / Western news

Well, the Mistress heard last night that we were in the Paper, so she went off to get extra copies early today. Looks like I am the star of the show. She is quite impressed with what the Reporter has written. She was here three weeks ago getting this story. 

I find this technology challenging because it changes things for me. I just mind my business when I am given the chance to write and do not annoy anybody. Sometimes POOF and it's gone, and this is tough on a mere Gnome trying to put this together. Being a small species means I have far more challenges to overcome.

The Mistress seems to think that, all the years on this planet, her brain is full of information and cannot squeeze anything else in. What a load of........She once said that you never stop learning until the day you die, as the world continues to change and evolve daily. 

I know that our world will change when this house is sold, and we begin our traveling life.

Today I noticed that The Mistress is quite tired and has not achieved so much as other days. I even caught her having 40 winks. Gee don't tell her this, I could get into a whole heap of trouble. 

She went out tonight with her friend for dinner. This meant they would be at least a couple of hours. So, time for some Gnome business. 

We went out to the garage as we hadn't been out there for ages. Boxes and more boxes everywhere. We struggled climbing all over them, but it was fun because we hid from each other. Mr golfing man nearly fell off his perch as an empty box was barely balanced properly and he had to jump to another box as that one landed on the floor. 

We can see the Mistress has been very busy with many boxes ready for storage. She has even written on each one with the contents. This is so good for later should she be looking for something. 

We heard the car pull up and the garage door open, so we took off back to our places on the shelf.
