  • Lol. Love that you bought your dog a birthday present to unwrap. 
    He loves opening a present.

    At Christmas he thinks they are all for him  :D

    My dog is the same. I can’t put presents under the tree because she opens them whether or not they’re hers 😆 I bought her a Christmas stocking today.

  • Not a no spends day today. The dog is at the groomers.

    It's been a busy morning so far and true to form we over slept 😀

    Bedding is washed and drying in the spare bathroom, dog walked, breakfast cooked and eaten and washed up, dog at the groomers and we are just getting showered and changed.

    We are staying over at an old friend's house tonight. Not seen them since this time last year so it will be nice to have a catch up. 

    Hoping that our dog gets on with their 5 month old cockerpoo puppy!

    Think we have lots of walking, catching up and a curry later.

    Not a no spends day today. We have been to the garden centre to pick up this year's Christmas baubles. Not massively spendy, we had a voucher to use so only a £5 spend.

    We had breakfast with our friends this morning. Dinner later is roast lamb with all the trimmings. 

    I have wrapped most of the Christmas presents this afternoon. The other half is doing some next.

    Dinner is prepared. We must take the dog out for a walk shortly. He is currently fast asleep in the living room.

    Wow you’re well ahead - Christmas presents wrapped already! I thought I was doing well by having bought a couple 😆

    How did the dog get on with the puppy?

    They hated each other 🤣🤣🤣

    We managed to draw a truce around the kitchen table.

    We have just got a couple more small Christmas presents to buy and then we are done for this year. Get them delivered in a couple of weeks and then we are dine for the year 😀

    Your dog's birthday is the day before mine ha.

    Re Christmas, got the decs up also lol fml there's prepared and then there's all the presents wrapped over a month in advance prepared. I only jest, we really aren't in the mood for Christmas this year and can't really be bothered, going to have to make some kind of effort for our son though.

    Thinking about your dog and the puppy. If you see your friends agian try taking them for a short walk together and then if they are ok let them off lead somewhere safe (not in either home) and see what happens but be prepared to intervene if needed. If they make friends outside they are more likely to tolerate each other inside. If you did this ignore me.
