    9 hours today again. Who knew flowers could be so demanding?

    Tea last night was beef burger stew, which as more appetising than it sounds. Teach me to grab something unknown from the freezer. Once we hit Friday I'll need to get our meal plan sorted for the next month or so.

    Dug seems fine after his op, hear about the cytology on Monday. Vet said not to worry too much.

    Hope you're all good. Looking forward to putting timesheet int this week.

    :-) taking mutts to work, walking tea breaks and lunchtime and any digging time inbetween. Although I have to say they aren't mich help. One sits in disgust, the other tries to join in.......lol

    Have a gud un

    Tee hee at beef burger stew! :) i'm sure I'd do the same if I ever put anything IN the freezer other than frozen veg and lolly ices :D

    Glad pesky pup is doing ok. All paws crossed here xxxx

    Good luck at work, sounds super busy!

    Do remember to pause for breath in between all your running about please Stripes! I know what you're like... ;)

    Glad Hound the Elder is in good spirits - fingers still crossed for a nothing to worry about verdict here, and that sounds hopeful judging by what the vet says. As for the HOOOOGE vets bills - I'd send him up the chimney if I were you. the pup that is, not the vet.

    Full timiness sounds exhausting - I'm guessing that enthusiastic enthusiasts are better than the other sort but they're going to wear you out in 9 hour stints, whichever.
