Some progress with flying - now involving shopping for a new fridge shelf as well (cleaning is dangerous! Glass everywhere)

New Glass shelf ordered. Now just need to order the new kitchen floor - ripped the vinyl when I moved the fridge looking for the model number. Which was inside the b***dy fridge.:mad::mad:

Bedrooms have been demoulded and curtains washed. Bathroom and the rest I'll do tomorrow as the windows needs to stay open for quite a while to reduce the smell. Yard has been scrubbed, it doesn't look much different atm but thats what happened last time then it suddenly improved. Kitchen it now disinfected, tidied up and all but the crock from the slowcooker is now washed so I've had a productive couple of hours Unfortunately during that time Zack has peed on the sofa. I assume something frightened him or he needed to go out while I was busy and he couldn't hold it any longer. I've dried it as much as I can and sprayed some cleaner on it. Now we just have to wait for it to dry.

Hi all

First off, GWS vibes for OldDog and Whiz.
I was so cross reading of what happened with Mumof2 and Whiz - one of my upcoming guests is hostile to other dogs, but she will be wearing her muzzle when I take her out; that way she can't inflict any damage, and also it gives other dog-walkers the heads-up that she's not friendly.

I have a BD the size of a bull elephant.
Yesterday was awful - the woman was extremely hostile, and managed to inflict pain on me. Now I have to wait 4 to 8 weeks to hear the outcome.

Thank the gods I have the two Princesses coming on Saturday.

I do hope Pigpen's DS3 is ok; I was thinking of him, in the midst of my own misery.

pigpen

Oh LW I'm really sorry you got a meany.. The woman who did DS3's was as wet as a dishcloth.. she didn't even know what she was doing and just read stuff off the form and said 'is that still the case?' .. I'll send you some mices to scare off the lumpy-dee BD. It's over and done with now so hopefully that will be it for us all for a while!!

Everyone fed and watered and I'm just doing a couple of rows of knitting .. doing a baby cardy and it needs to be 16cm and I am 4 rows short.. so doing those before getting the girlies ready for bed.. no naps today so hoping to get Pixie down before midnight today!!

I ordered the wool for the other baby cardy and of course a couple of 'spares' .. I found some called 'berry' DD1 will love so I'll do one for Miss Squirrel with that.

I am horrified to hear this Lamewolf - I was thinking of you yesterday. Can you lodge an official complaint?

I'd like to, but I've no idea who I should actually complain to; and I don't expect it'd do me any good if I did complain.

I hope you're ok CY - you seem to be going through the mill lately yourself!

I suppose I ought to put in a bit of Flying - I finally vacuumed up the Jessie-hairs off the carpets this afternoon.

Jazee

Evening all.

FBO - sorry but your fridge post made me laugh.
LW - I hope after what you went through yesterday that you get the outcome you need.

As per this morning only dailies done here today. OldDog has fractured part of her paw, possibly during one of her falls down the stairs which is a regular occurrence these day. Because of her age, they couldn't put her under to do an op, so they've just had to do the best they can and she's all bandaged up now. Hopefully it will heal ok. So thank you all for your good wishes, you all know that I won't let her suffer.

Right need to help DH with his work appraisal now. See you all tomorrow.
