    I will / am AND I'm being very lazy :o

    I popped upstairs after I'd had lunch and ..... lay down for an Archie pet and ...... errrrrrr somehow it was 4pm when I next looked at the clock :eek:

    Just popped out to run a couple of errands and take poor Maisie to the beach - poor lamb will be packing her bags at this rate! :)

    Still pretty tired :eek: so planning on watching some TV, hanging up the 2nd load of washing and that's it!

    Hope everyone's having a lovely weekend:)

    :) So lazy weekend

    Pleased to report that Archie finally went upstairs :T and has spent the last 3 nights curled up on my pillow (where he slept from a teeeny tot until the bad fights started:() purring

    He seems to be calming down - hasn't actually been out as much as usual which makes me think the new cats are obviously winding him up too so no wonder they were at each others throats the whole time :mad:

    Spoke to my pal at the weekend and Mia's doing OK :) getting cuddles and coming out her shell a bit more

    You have absolutely NO idea how much I'm struggling without her here tho':o she was like my shaddow and was always with me when I was home (and I mean ... everywhere;)) .... wish they could just have got on *sigh*


    So I'm dog sitting at my mum's for a couple of days - M&D have popped away to a gig! (:eek: go M&D:D) and their dog doesn't errrr "do cats" shall we say so I can't bring her to mine


    I've been here around 2 hours and I'm bored :o - too scared to try to work the telly in case I break it :o so I've resorted to tinternet to keep me amused!

    Both dogs are driving me nuts already - mum's dogs whining because she's not here :p and Maisie just hates being away from home and gets in a panic!

    Another 1/2 hour and I can take them a quick stroll .....

    Getting my hair cut tomorrow - it's a right mess and TBH I don't think there's going to be an awful lot that can be done

    All the hair I lost when I was on the horrible treatments is growing back :T BUT it means Ive got tufts of inch long hair sticking out everywhere!:o

    Ohhh can't type on this lappy!

    Planning a pretty quiet weekend ..... will be taking Maisie to the beach shortly (need some brekkie first!) and then I really must pop to the SM as haven't been for ages :T

    Could really do with going to Al*di so may pop up after F1 later on!

    Off to see Sunshine on Leith tomorrow at Ocean T. Saw the stage show and really enjoyed it.

    Grandad is 86 tomorrow. His favourite treat is a buffet style tea so lots of chicken wings and snacky foods. He only wants chocolaty things for a present so we'll pop to Thorntons while at cinema and get him a few treats.

    I hope you get some good walks with Maisie...and some rest.

    I'm morphined-up so in a happy place as no pain (what a woose I am :rotfl::rotfl:).
