Yeah, he should be getting that back on Wednesday..... I did tell him we were gonna pay it off the CC, but I might let him keep it so I don't have to sub him any money this month.....

Yeah, after some fiddling, it turned out to be pretty much the same :rotfl:postingalwaysposting wrote: »hey sarah... that sig isnt far from your old one is it?

OH is still going slowly..... its gonna be a long, drawn out process with him! Little man is good, can't believe he's one this month:eek: He's had lots of bumps and knocks the last few days, he's so determined to stay upright, but keeps falling down.
I'm good, first day of my holiday today, and I get a phone call from OH at 0645 to say that someone has gone sick, so I had to go in for a couple of hours :mad:
Not looking forward to tomorrow at the vets, I found another three lumps yesterday, they're everywhere
