Must try harder!

I found that with running, it did make me fitter but it made me hungry not thin🤣 Maybe it's time to invest in some puppy training pads for doggo? If you can't find any then children's nightime bed wettiing mats from Tesco are the same stuff but bigger. 

We actually have them (for a serial wee-er of a cat with a love of corners and carpets, despite having 5 clean litter trays). But pup never warmed to them when she was training so I’m not sure how effective they’d be for her. I’ll try some by the door 😊

Much sympathy from me on incontinent pets. Hadn't thought of the doggy pads, but I suspect that my (much loved but frankly evil) old lady cat would do it next to them on purpose.

Yes, every time I block a corner with one he uses it for a while but then he finds a new corner…also they are expert at scratching them up and peeing underneath…but it still saves some carpet 😅 every night I clean 5 litter trays and check and replace puppy pads in corners as required…sigh! It might be worth a go for your cat…all olde ladies aspire to be evil…I know that’s what I’m aiming for 😁

Good morning and happy Wednesday ☕️📚🍫
My car needed a part, so was ordered for today. I left if with the garage overnight and should be able to collect it this afternoon. I asked about the price and the rough estimate is very reasonable, definitely under £200 so I’m happy with that. With cars it can always be really bad, so it’s a relief when it’s not. I’d done some juggling of pots, but it won’t put my savings down this month.
Now onto the bad influence section of my diary 😅 Has anyone been tempted by a Pooli printer? They are so cute! Tiny little thermal printers and they print stickers. Stickers! And photos! I have one in my basket 😬
I hope you all have an amazing day ☕️📚🍫🍦

Glad the car isn't too extreme!

Sadly the car was over double what I expected…£430 😢 his rough quote was only for one of the parts and he quoted half of what it actually was, sigh….
Luckily I had moved a chunk to savings this month, but sadly I now need to move some back. Hey ho, at least it’s not going on plastic I suppose!

Boo to the car bill 👎

Oh no, I hate it when you ask for an estimate and its way over but it seems common with garages!
Glad you enjoyed your time off with the relatives, I always need a good week doing nothing when dd2 comes, stays and departs

Ouch for the garage bill, so difficult to budget for
