My washing has defrosted again so I've got it in and hung it round indoors. The heating should be on in about 10 minutes so hopefully it will start to dry.
Just took a lump of crackling or some sort of meat/fat off the cat. He's obviously been off rummaging somewhere unsavoury.
DH didn't know what time his lunchbreak would be today but he hasn't come home yet so I'm wondering if they've worked through and he'll be home early instead. I deliberately did a meal he could microwave (chilli). I've got to work tonight, back to normal time.0 -
Tilly - Tot probably
I get about a bit.
Moam thanks for the offer but seems these little ones will only be rehomed locally, never mind, stops me looking!!!
PF I have been using dogpages and therefuge, which is how I have ended up homechecking for one
summermoon one of those things puppies are good at, I don't use crates, hate them personally, always just put it down to puppies are just like babies and need the same patience/understanding/training. I always expect damage with a puppy.
Just done my first official homecheck, couldn't have met a nicer couple, wonderful home, obviously thought about it a lot, I really hope they are successful and decide he's the dog for them as I think they would be wonderful owners.
I had a right morning, printer wouldn't work so had to take laptop with me and type the notes straight onto the forms, which was probably a lot easier just felt a little awkward. My mini laptop refused to work so had to take the big one with me. Car I thought wasn't going to start when I left. Traffic was chaos! One burn blistered and popped! Ok I give up, New Year obviously is getting no better....
I goes onto HP to try to sort out getting minilaptop working and the **person with a strange name** suggests I go buy a new harddrive and see if that fixes it, erm NO! It's under 3 months old!!! So they are now sending courier to collect it, well when I get through to the right department online. I now need to change every password I have used on there as I can't switch it on to change it, that means, loads of new passwords for me to forget, bother!One day I might be more organised...........

Pigpen...if you're not feeling well then pick out the easy bits, put them on a seperate list and just do those. If you are feeling well then pick out some bits which you hate doing but have to be don and just go for it!
Ugh credit card just paid off, was harsh but needed doing as I really don't want to end up getting to the limit again.
Still not getting anywhere fast here. Might wake Mr G up and then have a lie down myself. Actually will put some bread on to cook now and then I'll use the left over bread from yesterday to dry into bread sticks for the children.Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!
