House Sitting Instructions
1. Jo Ann’s #: 403-XXX-XXXX (marginalia says “flashlight for night walks”).
2. Lulu: 2 walks a day, as before. 1 or 2 pees during day. Large cookie at 9pm. Keep her on the leash and close to you especially when nearing small, yappy dogs, which she hates. Otherwise, the leash can be let out. Put her harness and collar on vestibule bench for Tanis and Ralph (make sure key is under mat) to get on Monday morning. Food: ½ cup (coffee cup) of crunch, one large plop of dog food (soft) for morning and dinner. MAKE SURE KEY IS UNDER MAT (note stating “repeated” and an arrow to marginalia denoting “make sure key is under mat).
3. Cats: ¼ can am and pm. Also crunch in Mud Room if Eli gets too demanding, ie he won’t shut up. Use sparingly. Keep Mud Room door shut otherwise Eli gets into crunch.
4. You: eat anything in fridge, freezer or cupboards but NOT squash soup in stainless steel container in freezer- we’re having that Monday night. There are three packs of Sole in freezer (marginalia: there are no potatoes). If you run out of candles don’t use the red ones- if you find them-, they’re for Christmas. Use utility white ones in drawer next to sink. Don’t snoop for Christmas presents. There aren’t any for you. Lots of toilet paper. Don’t use Anna’s car on Monday. She’s coming back Tuesday night and has an appointment on Wednesday. Check out new TV and zippy vacuum in vestibule closet. You’ll want that to clean up. (Marginalia: for puke and shit on carpet: use spray water and sponge up. Don’t rub or use soap and hot water.)
Lock doors when going out. Don’t leave fire unattended, lights and heat off if not here. Otherwise, thanks and have fun. XO, Mom.
