merledogs Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 It's been grey this morning and it's been sunny. I am waiting to mow my lawn which desperately needs doing. Can't do it before the 9 am watershed so am hoping the rain (which looks imminent) holds off for at least another 40 mins or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophie Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 Morning. We timed out walk prefectly this morning - it just started raining as I loaded the dogs into the car to head to work. Kia wasn't convinced the walk was worth the risk of getting rained on and I had to carry her the first 10ft away from the house I skipped agility last night as I sat down to eat dinner and then couldn't muster the energy to get back up. It was a bit too hot for it anyway, so I don't think the dogs minded. My mum's car's gearbox went kaput yesterday, so she is car shopping at the moment. She keeps sending me links to cars over skype, which has got me hankering after a new car despite the fact I definitely don't need one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 Ugg my get up and go hasn't come back from where ever it fecked off to last time - why did I think that a finger buffet would be a stress free, cheap & easy way of feeding Nick, Vicky, Trudy, Graham, Amelia, MIL, me & Rob tomorrow? Its not going to be "easy" today when I have a mountain of sandwiches to make and stuff to bake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gooster Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 Jayne hope Charlie does improve for you and there is nothing else going on. Issie made very slow progress. Thanks Michelle, he seemed to get over his initial attach reasonably well, but this latest episode seems to have floored him We have decided for the moment to not have him MRI scanned, as I think it is too much to put him through. If a tumour is found on the MRI, we wouldn't operate anyway as I think it would be such a big op for an old man to go through Am absolutely shattered today, am working 6 days this week and for some reason this week has just floored me. I feel like I could sleep for a week After tomorrow though, I am off Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. I am then working Wednesday and Thursday. Next Friday I am going to meet mum and dad at the caravan near Bath, so I have a nice long weekend away Not too long now till my holiday though, 50 days and counting Am hoping that really recharges my batteries, which are running on empty at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantan Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 That will be nice next weekend Jayne - definitely something to look forward too The joiner is here and I just caught the afternoon postie who brings parcels telling him that if Archie got anywhere near him he would kick his head in. Little s***! I told him if he touched my dog he could count on me kicking HIS head in. Bloody git. He's always horrible to Archie and shouts at him which is why Archie barks at him because he's frightened of him. And get this - this twerp has a dog of his own. I feel really sorry for it as I think he probably bullies it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murtle Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 They still haven't sorted out my contract and are now being a pain about it...another project wants me but internal politics are being played out at the expense of me earning any money!

griff Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 Yantan, i would make a complaint at the sorting office, he can't go round doing that sort of thing, also get one of those parcel boxes so he never has to come onto your property or if you get on with your neighbour explain things and ask if he could leave your stuff there, i would have battered him. Gooster, hope you have nice weather next weekend.... i also fully understand what you mean with charlie, you have to weigh up the pro's and cons of things and how you think the animal would cope with surgery, i think if it was anything big for diez now i would have to have a long hard think i am so ill today, i have to go back to the drs i really have knackered myself.... i am a right div Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
