Morning (just)!

I failed at eating yesterday which meant I got blotto far too early and wasn't well. Oops! 🙈

But we had a great time anyway and I avoided having to tidy up!

Countdown to next year is go go go! 🎄🎅🏻🎄🎅🏻🎄🎅🏻

@CrazyBaubles you need this kit.

321

Good luck later, Fluffy.

Morning!

Up at sparrow's fart to go to Stockport. Exciting. 🙄

It should hopefully be informative with the surgeon, Puss, as I'll know exactly what's going on in my shoulder. It feels bloody weird (clunky) these days. God knows what the last surgeon did with it!

I shall dig a Ted Rodgers pic out later for us all. 🤣🤣

Dusty Bin day!

Hello everyone hope all your pains are getting better? Cold is much better.

Pusey at our moggies are steadfastly hanging onto their fur ,they need to go for their vaccines soon and want the camouflage when the Vet says they are heavy. I think he means fat but doesn’t want to fat shame them. I tell him in summer you can see their hips where they go rangey . Don’t think he’s convinced.

ice on my windscreen this morning . Ice.😲

Pusey at. Should be Pussycat. I’m on the iPad. My excuse

And BTW, where the devil have you been , Pussycat.

Pussycat, pussycat, where have you been?!

In other news: shoulder isn't great, I need another op. 😭😭

Ouch! Have they said how long that will take till the surgery?

320

Morning!

No, I need to get referred back to the surgeon at Spire on the NHS, and he said there's a short wait, but not hideously long, so that's something.

It looks like a nice day outside. Good news for the washing pile!

What a nightmare fluffy. It’s sunny here but cold 🥶

Fluffy That's a bugger. At least DDog can help you digging at the allotment. 🤣
70 life and stuff got in the way, my head was too full and I couldn't really empty it here.
Gotta go. DH about to hoover a cat!

Welcome back pussycat. Long time no 'see'

I went out with a couple of my close colleagues to a local Thai restaurant last night and it was utterly glorious food. I was wavering about going because I feel so yuck but so glad I did.

Why, I'm glad you did. I'm still forcing myself to go to Morrisons or Tesco. 🤦‍♀️ You're being braver than me!

319 Ooh it is getting quiet here isn't it?

why I had an evening like yours yesterday. Really didn't want to go out but also didn't want to let friend down so we went out for tea and I'm so glad. Food was lovely but company was better!

Welcome back puss

Fluffy Hope the wait for the op etc isn't too long for you 🤞🏼

Stressful few days here for various reasons (work, family etc) but as always, onwards and upwards (is that a saying? My dad says it all the time).

Bloody cold here today. I've had to put on fluffy bed socks and my oodie 🥶

318

I nearly went the wrong way with the countdown 🤣 very helpful of you brain fog.

Really tired this morning. I worked yesterday and now today, they will probably have to wheel me round the ward I am so tired but I have three days off once finished at 14.00 (ish)

Morning!

Ddog has been a little shit today already, getting me up at 5 to dig the garden! 😫🤣

So I took him for his walk to wear him out and he's calmed now.

I hope you get through the day, Why.

Hope everything is OK, Crazy.

Fluffy that dog is obsessed with digging. 🤣

I thought grandpuppy was obsessed till he came along.

He's taken a shine to strawberry plants, so keeps retrieving them from the garden. 🙄😫

Morning,

Lazy start to the day here, just drinking a coffee in bed and having a little doze.

I really should get going, but it's just so quiet and peaceful.

Fluffy it's a shame DDog isn't digging helpfully, like digging out potato trenches.

Take it easy Why

And crazy stay warm!

👋 Puss

Last day of work until the 20th! So excited.

Fluffy you’ll have to buy him a sand pit!

Not sure I want to encourage the behaviour, Wreck! 🤣🤣

Don't buy him a sand pit. All the local cats will think... 💩
🤦‍♀️
