People are so inconsiderate, I am for ever guiding my dog around glass when we are out. Hope Luna heals quickly and the insurance pay out quickly.

I know they really are.

Ooh that's a good chunk, well done.

Hope Luna is feeling okay

She's not too bad. Hardest part is trying to keep her calm - she's a collie so very high energy!

She's snoozing now after some biscuits and a painkiller. 

Need to try and get some help with her until her stitches are out. 

If I put the cone on her she just frantically runs about in a panic and ends up hurting herself. Honestly it's a nightmare. 

Gonna speak to a couple of friends to see if they can keep a wee eye on her Friday and Sunday for a couple of hours at a time - just means I can still get out dog walking which I need to do cos I am skint.

Been ages since I last updated and a lot going on. 

My budgeting is all over the place right now because my mums been really ill. She had an emergency surgery on Saturday after being in a lot of pain for weeks so she's on the mend but between driving up and down to the hospital sometimes 3 times a day and trying to get her settled my money is flying out. 

I've managed to pay all my minimum payments and will attempt to pay more through the month but still need to try and get some stuff in for Christmas - nightmare honestly!

Will need to rework the budget from January.
