Hiya everyone,
Sorry i've not read the thread but it's been a mad day. Stripes is now home with a plaster cast on her leg and a big collar round her neck to stop her chewing her foot. She's spent the last half hour leaping around so we all have bruises and cuts on our legs from her cast and collar. She's not quite getting the 'no leaping around and no long walks' - bless her!
No flying from lists today...three loads of washing, lots of s/s, numerous visits to vet, hospice morning (which was the quality part of my day!), dentist visit for me and children, dropped advertising postcards at local cafe, visiting parents and sister and bought last minute stuff children needed for school.
I will consider more flying tomorrow...remember I said CONSIDER!!!!
Hugs to everyone xxx0
