“Tempeste. What are you doing?”
“I’m checking out the outside.”
“Why are you doing that. You know it’s 100 degrees out there.”
“I kn0w but I’m thinking of asking Dad to get the pool out.”
“You know it is still too hot even for the pool.”
“I suppose you are right. Why aren’t you playing with your toys?”
“Oh, I don’t know. I’m in a lazy mood, I suppose.”
“What about your precious marshmallow?”
“I think she needs a rest for a while.”
“I know how that can be.”
“So what’s next? You know Dad wants us to make an announcement.”
“Yeah, I know. Can we just take a nap first?”
“No, I think we should get on with it.”
“Why doesn’t Dad make his own announcements?”
“I think he counts on us, since we have more readers than he does.”
“That does make sense. Okay, let’s get it done.”
“I’ll take the first part. Dad is taking a blogging break for a week.”
“He will be back next Thursday with us again.”
“Our sister is visiting from Indiana. We are so excited.”
“He wants to make sure her visit is enjoyable.”
“So off the grid he goes and will not be visiting blogs”
“Adiós, Papa.”
