Back to the vets yesterday and they've increased one lot of drops to four times a day. But the tablets have finished (hooray). I now "only" have to treat her 16 times a day. No wonder the poor cat is fed up.

Poor little pudd'n-cat. Healing energy on its way to her.
Ted had an ear infection when he arrived, but thankfully the tablets he brought with him seem to have done the trick - he's nearly finished them now. He's ever so good about taking them (wrap them in cheese!!) but I don't know how he'd cope with eye drops. We had to put drops in Cameron's eye when he stayed, and it took both of us to do it - me to hold him still, and Mr LW to administer the drops.

Nothing done last night, except transfer of some funds (it was payday yesterday! ), and a present bought for new baby, and all required Birthday cards have been acquired.

Ooh, thanks for mentioning this; it reminded me I needed to do a spot of piggery-jokery with our Websaver accounts - bank have introduced a new one that pays much more interest than our old ones, so I've been busy opening those up and transferring funds over.;)

I've also done as much cleaning and dusting as is feasible in the spare room; also shunted up the jars in the HM jam crate, as we've taken out a couple of the older ones this week.

Your welcome. I've transferred some more money today (I just did the essentials yesterday to ensure bills paid on time). And have just spent some time adding a spends tab to my budget, to keep on eye on that.

On the train down to the dreaded parents. Ozzie taking up the aisle next to me. Everyone adores him as they go by. DH came to station to help me negotiate rucksack, suitcase, handbag and dog. Dad coming at other end to do the same with the dreaded underground.

Managed to leave house in a not TOO bad state. Kitchen clean and WM and DW up to date. Have left DH with instructions to clear fridge before he leaves tomorrow. I've filled a cage in the freezer with bread/milk/cheese/pizza and batch cooked meals so he can survive for a few days when he gets back before I return.

Really dreading arriving at parents house.

WM x 3 done - shame it has rained all day.

Kids pencil cases done, DS3 PE kit - he needs trainers yet, DS2 wearing in his steel capped boots for the first week back - work experience.
