    Right I've done nothing work wise this morning because puppy has been poorly sick. She's been vomiting bile stuff...but now seems absolutely fine...if a little sleepy. She's had a walk and a little play though so I'm happy enough that we don't need a vet. I'll keep a close eye on her though.

    This afternoons jobs involve sorting out my veg stew for the slow cooker AND baking some training liver for Belle. She's going to love it...she just doesn't know it yet. :D

    Belle is fine...but still not really showing interest in food. Just wait till my liver treats cool down. :D
    Veggie stew is also cooking away nicely. But I wish my house smelt of veggie stew rather than liver! Yuk! It mings. :(

    I've done no work for school in the end today and it's doubtful I'll do anything now...so a well earned break I think is on the cards. I'll crack on with work again tomorrow. Just wish I could get some extra money. I have a MS to a clothes shop on Sunday but that's as exciting as it gets moneywise until next pay day I think. Boo.

    Right I've done very little school work. If fact I've done very little of anything. I have a summer cold...nice. Losing my voice, a nice cough and sore throat. And a wonderfully snotty nose. I feel rotten.

    However, I have made a veggie stew which was nice and I made the most amazing chicken and bacon risotto. LOVED IT! :D I'm feeling a bit sorry for Belle because she's being ignored every so slightly while I sit in my misery and moan. I think she's enjoying the down time to be honest thought! :rotfl:

    Right I've just realised I have to fund my dissertation myself. So I've contacted university to find out how much it's going to cost. Then I'm going to ask school if they will pay for it. I've not taken anything from school during my time there regarding my MA, and the funding has been from an outside source. I wonder if they will go for it as part of a CPD thing. I hope so or I'm not sure I can afford to complete my MA. I'll honestly cry if that happens after all this hard work.

    Right, time to shower before el puppo wants to go out for a walk. She's been a sleepyhead this morning and has hardly stirred. She did have a busy old day yesterday thought what with puppy class etc. First half she didn't do very well, then she was sick and she was suddenly a genius. Unfortunately the lady that watches had lost interest in watching Belle by then and so she didn't see all the good things Belle did. Quite annoying really. Doh!

    Having said that there were 10 puppies not including Belle yesterday - which is too many in a class I feel. They are all at different levels and its not a class that runs from week 1 - 6 it's kind of a rolling program. There were also like a million people...I found it distracting so I think Belle actually did quite well. I'm contemplating trying another one when we get back to Preston...but I'm not sure. She's pretty good for us and I don't want to actually do obedience with her...I just don't want her to be a nightmare when she grows up.

    Decisions decisions. Suggestions on a postcard please....

    I've been really ill the last couple of days and been wrapped up sleeping and drinking plenty of fluids. Today however, I've been really productive and managed to tick quite a few things off my list. Yey! :j

    I can't believe how fast these holidays are going and that I've been ill for a good week or more of them. Grr.
