@Jessy103 so sorry to hear about your dog. I've heard that when the time comes, our pets show us over the rainbow bridge. Then there are no more partings. Love to you all Humdinger xx

Hi jessy really sorry to hear about your gorgeous wee dog. Unfortunately, we had a lymphoma diagnosis in March for our 4 year old Italian greyhound. We decided to try chemo and we're half way through the treatment. He's doing pretty well but it's tough on everyone with good and bad days. If he wasnt so young we wouldn't have tried. But the prognosis is not good 😔
It's so good you have so many wonderful memories x

Hi Jessy. I'm just catching up. I'm so sorry sorry about your little fur baby 🥀 I still have the odd tear when I think about mine and he's been gone over a year now (he was also 12). They're like our babies and the grief for me was worse than when I lost my grandparents 🥀. Sending huge hugs to you all xxx

Thank you x We went to pick up her ashes this week which was tough and there were more tears. It did feel better to have her home though.
The mortgage is currently at £188,753 53. I'll be looking to overpay £100 off that shortly.
Not a lot really happening at the moment. I have a procedure on my eyelid on Tuesday, which I'm not looking forward to but it does mean I won't be able to go into work the rest of the week as it is a dusty environment (i work in an office in a timber window and door factory) and could cause an infection, so i will be doing some work from home instead when I'm able to.

Good luck for Tuesday. It’ll be a relief when it’s over and it’ll be good to have it all sorted.

Thanks Beanie & Jess x
A nice relaxing day today. A lazy start with crumpets and a cuppa in bed whilst watching an episode of Gardener's World. Then I've been gardening the rest of the day, some weeding, deadheading and sowing some seeds.
We then put dog 1 and her brothers ashes in the pot we'd bought with the magnolia stellata to remember them by. A few tears from me and DH. It's by the door so we will see them every day. Hopefully, it will grow well and look forward to it flowering next year ❤️
