 The humans of the house had an open home and left for the day. As a gnome who guards nature over Mother Earth, I observed the visitors and the real estate agent from my spot on the shelf. Thankfully, the humans had informed me of the agent's arrival and provided him with the code to enter the house. I couldn't help but worry about what might happen to me if a burglar were to break in. Being a gnome is one thing, but dealing with a burglar would require danger money. 

When I expressed my concerns to the Mistress, she informed me that the two lion statues at the footpath entrance guard the house. Of course, the Policeman Gnome out there does the job too. 

So, they must all be doing the job for me. This is just great as I am a small person. She also says she will leave these lions, because they were left by previous owners, and they are extremely heavy to move.

Moonshine was so funny last night when the humans were in bed. He made jokes about all the people from the open home. We laughed so much that we rolled all over the floor, and almost out the door. Even the fella who is always asleep didn't stir. We will not divulge these jokes here as this is gnome business only.

The humans went out today, so we headed outside to see what was happening around the pool,  we have to make the most of these fellas as they will soon be packed into a box for a long time. We discussed this at length out there and they would rather come with us. They all want us to sneak them into the caravan during the night. I told them we would work on it.

No packing has been done over the past couple of days, so I hope The Mistress knows what she is doing. She likes to spend quality time with His Lordship when he is here for some strange reason. 

An update, on this book publishing stuff...it appears it has challenged the daughter in the process of getting all the sizes of this and that sorted. She is getting some assistance and is excited, about being a published writer. 

Now she is wondering what her schoolteachers are thinking as she didn't like school. Being a very small country school, she was the only girl with three boys. These days there would not be many schools like this. Crickey three, boys and the only girl doesn't seem fair to me. Life wasn't easy growing up for her as she had lots of challenges.
