Things can only get better

Vet visit over and done with. Hopefully until next September. She needs to lose a kilo but healthy otherwise. She hasn’t been as active recently with the warm weather but she should lose it over winter. She doesn’t eat a great deal to be honest but goodness knows what Mr SA sneaks her off his plate when I’m not looking. I’ve told him time and time again not to but he ignores me.

Mr SA got his coffee while I looked at the shops but it was a Greggs not Costa. He was happy enough sitting there with the dog.

Picked up a few bits from B&M mainly cleaning stuff.

18,000 steps there and back so it’s a good walk to do all in one go. We left the house at 12.50 and didn’t get back until 4.30.

Have received my refund from Amazon 👍

Not heard anything from the handyman about the dripping tap so I contacted the plumber who fitted the sink originally 4 years ago and he’s coming to have a look but can’t get for a couple of weeks. Would rather have a proper plumber look at it since no one seems to be able to fix it, fed up of throwing money at it.

I'm glad Mr SA enjoyed his trip out. It's coming up to the time of year when he won't be able to go far in his chariot of fire.

Glad your refund has landed and that the trip to the vet went well……and of course that Mr SA had a lovely coffee 👍

That's a fair old walk. I'm surprised your dog isn't as skinny as a rake already with all the exercise she gets 😁

I’m afraid Mr SA blotted his copybook earlier. I’d just got out of a nice relaxing bath to find him in the kitchen clearing up after a toilet accident. Water everywhere 😩 I feel like I can’t turn my back on him for 5 minutes. He’s not really been with it today to be honest, has seemed a bit spaced out.

I can’t understand why the dog has put on 1kg, she hasn’t touched her food today, the cat eats more than she does and is currently tucking into said untouched dog food.

Still haven’t booked the holidays, just didn’t get round to it. I know the hotels/dates we want to go so not a difficult task, it’s just getting decent flight times. Too tired to bother tonight will roll over to tomorrow’s to do list.

Tomorrow is another day… and by this time tomorrow you may have a holiday to look forward to ☺️

So - have booked 10 nights in Lanzarote in April and 9 nights in Zante for August. Got good flight times for both plus £120 off both holidays 👍 We will be away for both our birthdays although we fly on Mr SA’s. Now have to inform live in dog sitter aka DD to book the time off work.
