    Yay :j:j:j:j:j


    What can i say......Ginger is HOME.

    :j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

    My eyes have been periodically leaking all day...(somewhat of a surprise for me :o)

    He is fine :T:T- needs a bath :o........as he has a very greasy dirty coat :o (but not for a couple of weeks til his wound has healed further ) -

    He also lost 20% of his body weight :eek: (no bad thing ;)) - but atm is wolfing down his fave veggies/meusli/nuggets like his life depended on it :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Wound needs bathing with disinfectant and then slathering in antibiotic cream twice a day - it IS still very big _pale__pale_- but it really is looking good...it's no longer open adnd new pinky/red skin is forming :D.

    (Edit: Ginger is looking forward to showing his war wound to any aspiring harem at the Rave (Horace please note ;)) )

    Other news - client called me back in for yesterday for another session - more money :j:j:T:T. Lots of positive stuff this week about my "competence" (compared to the the completely negative events last week :()

    Bed soon as haven;t slept for three days....:(

    Plan for weekend is to "Get that there garden done" :eek::D:o

    Thank ou everyone for posting :kisses3::kisses3::iloveyou::kisses2:

    Glad things are improving Wol.

    Not been around the boards much the last couple of weeks, but i've been popping in to keep my on on a few folks ;)

    Give Ginger a tickle from me too :)
    Good too see that things might actually soon become 'normal' without all the major upheavels that seem to happen to you. Not idea how you cope.

    Opps, sorry - i know how you cope. You're fantasticallyamazinglywonderfulosous

    Hey Wol, some good news! Excellent - I hope you've been able to sleep too, 3 days without sleep is *not* my idea of a good time .... I'm getting by on about 5.5 - and thats bad enough.

    Hi Everyone :wave::wave:

    Good news :

    George is (hopefully if he doesn;t get lost again :p) coming to The Rave :j:j:j

    Taxi is back home recovering nicely after her Op :T:T

    Auntie Smashed has sorted her "hiccough" earlier last week (Good on ya Hun ;);))

    Wish it was better news chez Wol - Ginger is having a hiccough - think Wol has been overzealous with the disinfectant/antiobiotic treatment and instead of allowing the wound to dry has left it wet - Ginger is now bleeding again slightly and the wound is (not seriously badly ) breaking down :( Still we now have a cuning plan which hopefully should put him back on course :cool:

    The weather this weekend has been attrocious :eek::eek:...so COLD! Piggies have a;l been inside :o

    So nothing at all done in the garden :eek:...(apart from a bit pf watering :D). Instead have very very lazily pottered - however all Piggy hospital supplies/cages completely re-organised, (plus new cage and special cage rack ordered so now up to 4 patients can be accomodated in Piggie hospital ) :D; all washing up to date and weekly shop done...:T.... Also rang dad re Father;s Day :A

    Tomorrow is admin day - getting back to prospective clients with proposals; sorting out floorboard dispute; Ombudsman; legal insuruance etc etc

    Hopefully rest of the week will enable me to blitz the garden ( I have a long "action list" :o)

    Last two weeks of build contract - the end can;t come soon enough atm ;)

    Lots of good news at first - woo hoo!

    But *very* boo to Ginger's wound opening a bit - I really hope your cunning plan works.

    It has been cold by me too - not freezing, but a bit chilly. Went out for a stiff walk at midday, and warmed up, and out in the garden it was actively hot, tho I was balancing on stones and actually digging, so it was quite awkward work :D

    I should think you *have* had a lazy day - I think you need quite a few to get your energy back up to normal levels, after what you've been through recently. Though, you know, its very funny when you list what you consider as a lazy day :naughty: :rotfl:

    Sorry I havent been around much - am rushed off my feet (wrote and submitted an assignment the other day and it was sent back yesterday with a D and I was told to re-write and re-submit it:mad:) - getting a D is terrible when you're normally an A grade student:o Now I have to do the re-write immediately which I don't particularly want to do.

    Sorry to hear about Ginger but hope your cunning plan works. It has been cold, I haven't ventured out at all this weekend and in fact spent most of the day either sleeping or watching Ty Pennington on one of the cable channels...it is unlike me to be such a lazy mare.

    Foodwise for the rave - no curry, no offal, no mushrooms (allergic) also allergic to fish and seafood.

    Hope Smashed and Taxi are feeling better?

    Best go and get something to eat - I am starving (it will be meat and salad again).

    Hi KC and Horace

    I too have "huddled"!!!

    Pants about the assignment Horace - Ginger sends big hugs and whiskery kisses. As for Rave food - no problemo - Smashed and i menu planned last weekend and I am just checking with everyone to make sure we haven;t made a Smashedbooboo :rotfl::rotfl:

    KC - you are a better woman than me - welldone for doing the gardening in this cold freeze


    Think the worst bit about the "cold weekend" is that I have had to have all windows open in the house to get rid of paint fumes :(

    And I have no heating as the radiators are currently off the walls ready for the wallpapering

    Brrrrrr!!!!!!
