The Mounting of the Retriever...

 Apparently I’ve been generally annoying all day. I don’t count the mounting of the retriever this morning because the stupid dog fell over and I fell on top of him. Who gets told off...moi of course, it just isn’t fair. I could have hurt myself, I am after all considered a more vulnerable Beardie because I have a bypass. Speaking of bypasses I shall be going in soon to have mine flushed through...keep it nice and clean. 





I suppose I can see why I might have been described as annoying when we got back from our walk. Yes I did jump up on the new duvet cover before Nix had cleaned my very muddy paws but she needs to speed up a bit. She’s faffing around filling up the water bowl we leave on the street for thirsty dogs so what am I meant to do, just sit and wait. I was tired and wanted to get to bed for my nap so I just jumped up. Nix heard me land, that’s the fastest I’ve seen her move for some time but it was just a bit too late 🤭 I was allowed to have a little sleep in the garden as it’s not raining...I like it out there.





The washing machine is now on and we are waiting for my new coat to arrive. Nix ordered one from a company over a week ago and it’s not turned up so she ordered another one from Amazon yesterday and that was due to arrive today. Nix hadn’t heard anything so we went to the park but we hadn’t been there long when she got a message to say it was about to arrive. We raced home just in time to get another message to say it wouldn’t be arriving for another hour. Nix does not have her happy face on...





My new coat is waterproof and it’s got a fleece in too. Nix says I’m better dressed than she is...I agree 🤣

It’s My Birthday Tomorrow 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

 We’ve not done a lot today. Nix has been dozing off at various times and to be honest, I’ve been asleep too. It’s quite nice actually not having anything to do. Nix has been working on the church log book so there was lots of tutting, mainly because she couldn’t remember where she’d put anything. Just in case you were wondering, the log book is an account of everything that is added to the church or taken away or repaired. Eventually Nix will fill in the actual document with special ink that doesn’t fade so it will be there for future generations to read.  We did go to the Rec this afternoon as I did need a little walk but we didn’t stay too long, it was very cold. It was also very muddy but not to worry, most of it will fall off tomorrow in time for my birthday 🙂 Speaking of my birthday, I have received quite a lot of presents and cards which is very exciting. At the moment we are waiting for my birthday cake to be delivered, it’s a vanilla sponge with raspberry cream. I sh...

RIP Fripp 5.1.2010 - 8.2.25 😪

  RIP Fripp 5.1.2010 - 8.2.25 My darling Fripp has crossed the bridge 😪 He passed very peacefully this afternoon in a lovely special room with a bed for him and a sofa for me. I am okay, I think, and I know time will heal.  A little bit about my gorgeous boy…he was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease when he was 7. He did really well on his home cooked diet but when he was eight he developed autoimmune thrombocytopenia due to some meds he was given…not by Bron. He went on a high dose of steroids, lost a lot of his coat with his gorgeous tail being almost bald. He survived the disease and went on to become strong but always with the kidney disease in the background.  Some months later he got sick again and went into kidney failure. He spent a week at North Downs Referrals where they discovered his ureter was blocked with a stone and so he received a subcutaneous ureteral bypass from his kidney to his bladder. He was one of the first dogs to get it and I’m told he has be...
