Free Breakfast And Free Lunch 😋

 


I had to take myself off into the spare bedroom again last night because Nix was coughing too much and as you know I don’t like it. She got up three times in the night making tea and faffing around so I was glad I was in the other room. She seems much better today and hasn’t coughed so much so hopefully she is finally on the mend. 



Jonathan one of our neighbours came round to help Nix move the single bed into the spare bedroom ready for the new bed arriving on Saturday. I expect I’ll have to sleep in the main bedroom until then if Nix is going to be noisy but you never know, she may be quiet tonight. That would be very nice actually because I do like to share a room with her and I miss her when I sleep alone. I think she misses me too 😪



I had a free breakfast on the beach this morning and then a free lunch when we went out again later. It’s very very windy, 60mph and Nix wasn’t going to let me off my lead but the sea was quite far out so I was released. I immediately smelled something very good and I was gone. It did mean Nix had to traipse over the pebbles to get me to come home and she does get a bit breathless at the moment so she wasn’t very happy about that. 



We’re home now and I’ve had a little bit of smoked mackerel on my sawdust balls because Nix thinks it will make them tastier. I don’t mind them on their own actually, they’re nice and crunchy and one of the bags has a mobility thingy in it so it’s helping me getting into the car. You should see Nix’s face when she has to hold the mackerel to cut it up…she thinks it’s disgusting, I on the other hand find it very yummy indeed especially the skin which Nix has a particular aversion to 🙄



Nix has an old friend visiting next week. She hasn’t seen Sarah since she left London so they are both very excited. They’ve been promising to meet up for years and it just hasn’t happened. Next Wednesday is the day so Nix is having a tidy up so Sarah can see our little bungalow at its best. She’s even threatening to clean the paving stones because it’s meant to be nice and sunny and we might sit out in the garden. 



Two of Nix’s cold sores disappeared overnight 🙂

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...
