WattyDog clearly aware he overdid it yesterday and is resting. I worry when he is quiet, but, we have been for our morning "pee and poop" walk and are home.
Charming Cob recovered and vet bill paid.Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

In other news I gave away the TV from the living room. It was old and it was just a reminder of PPH who during the trauma time just sat there watching movies loudly (always violent ones he knew I would hate). I realised I never watched the TV, I have one upstairs and I might got to bed and watch a bit but VNM and I have hardly ever watched TV downstairs and I never do. I would rather read. The only time we watch TV is new years eve when we have to stay up for the horses during fireworks. After I have gone to bed VNM watches videos on his phone so TV is now gone.
I will get a lovely lamp for the corner instead (one will turn up in charity shop I am sure).
Gardeners turned up yesterday, 2 men, 5 hours, the border by the side of the house is weeded and cleared and bark put down a bush has been trimmed and it looks tidy. Both patios have been weeded and cleared and the front drive has been sprayed with weed-killer. Everywhere looks so much calmer, larger and peaceful. The old PPH log store has been broken down and put in the skip. The part by the side of the house has all the rubbish removed and skipped.
These feel like more steps in stripping out PPH from the house.Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

Well done on getting rid of the TV - I don't have one at all. I couldn't afford one (or the licence) when I got my first house, and didn't miss it. As I've earned more, and moved houses, I've never felt the need. And they are ugly
