Mudbath

Good morning.

I'm just going S/S kitchen and clinic as i'm working for an hour this afternoon. I'll also do a washing load. Can't do much more as still can't move very well.

Poppy was limping this morning so took her to the vets early and she's on antibiotics and anti inflamatories as it's got infected. £52!!! Oh well, at least she's on the mend now and snoring loudly as I type!!! Bless her! Thanks for all your good wishes to her....I read them all to her and she looked at me as if I was the stupid one for expecting her to understand!!!

Hugs to all who need them xx

Mind you it's nothing really.

Just been watching on the news the lady who wants 'clarification on the law' if her husband travels with her to commit suicide

Not going to fully comment on the whole assisted suicide thing (hence the small type) as this is not the place and I think everyone differs depending on their circumstances and to say one way or another is impossible if you are not in that situation - but I do think that each case should be considered individually - cases such as this are obvious where she is physically asking herself, but others are not so black and white - it really is a big kettle of fish, and that's not even including the moral side of things. OK, nuff said, I could go on for days, I love a good debate...

Hope you're face is feeling better today - have you tried syndol? only thing that helps me...

Right, finally caught up, will now need to get dressed and get on with some stuff I think... Off to make the bed and quick tidy in there then get some washing on...

I have loads of work at the moment, so will have to sort some of that out too, so not much flying, but DS & hubby at home today, so they can do some (hubby's just vacuumed downstairs which is a start... )

Feeling really pleased with my little self, never thought I'd get this much done today, and I've still got two hours before getting ready for work. Obviously lunch will feature in there, as will making a luscious white choc and mint dessert for when I get home tonight. I'm just really glad I've found some shoes for work, I had literal holes in the toes of my last lot and in this weather thats not good.
