Feeling a Bit Better Today 🙂

 Hello everyone, I am still feeling a bit better. I had a bit of a funny turn last night but Nix came and gave me a hug and after a while I settled down. I had a very good night and just had a little bit of an episode this morning, well maybe two episodes but they were only little…Nix found me trying to dig the floor up in the bedroom…twice 🫢



Nix and Bron my vet had a long conversation last night about moi of course. Because it’s so far to keep driving to Peacehaven Bron has arranged for me to see another vet at the Brighton branch which is much closer.  She has made us an appointment for Thursday when I will have lots of checks. First of all we have to check that the Prozac hasn’t affected my platelets because a few things that I have taken in the past have done that. As long as everything is okay I shall stay on the Prozac for a little while longer. The new vet, his name is Chris will check my anal glands and Nix will take a urine sample too because when I got my thrombocytopenia last time there was some blood in my urine. The plan then is to wait and see how I go on the Prozac because maybe that’s all I might need.  




Nix has decided that we won’t go to church for a while until I am feeling much more normal and we won’t go to our Friday mornings either. We are very sad about that but Nix wants me to get completely better before we go back and she will watch the live stream of the Sunday service instead. If I continue to improve she said she would start by taking me for coffee after the service and see how that goes. 



We’ve been to Buckingham Park today as it hasn’t been raining and that was very nice. We stopped for a cup of tea and I got a treat 😋




Last night Nix had one of her anxiety dreams whatever that is. She said we were both in London and when she parked the car she knew she wouldn’t be able to find it again but she didn’t worry because she can always use her phone to find it. When we were about to go home she realised she hadn’t a clue where the car was but when she tried to use her phone it didn’t work. Someone said a chap called Dan would help us but he just told Nix that because there had been an update, Apple were no longer offering this service. He then said he had a phone that would help her find her car and it would cost £200. The last Nix remembers of the dream is walking up and down all the streets trying to find the car and then realised with horror that although she had my lead she didn’t have me…she’d left me behind 🫢




Funny old things, dreams 🤔

Everything You Wanted to Know About Fripp

Image
My name is Fripp aka The Fripster, I am a Bearded Collie and I came to live with Nix when I was two years old.  I spent the first two years of my life living in Monaco but my owners couldn’t keep me because they were working long hours. Even though Nix lives in the UK she saw me and wanted me, naturally, and so my breeder brought me to the UK when she was visiting Crufts. Nix says she had no idea what she was letting herself in for and if I hadn’t come all the way from France she’d have sent me straight back the next day. She said I was completely untrained, tried to kill the cat and had separation anxiety so bad I would knock her over rather than let her get to the front door. None of this is true of course.  Nix and I have lived in perfect harmony for the last eight years even though she might say different. I got very sick when I was seven with an autoimmune disease called IMTP but I recovered from that even though I was bald for a while. Then a year later I ended up in hospital wit

Too Much Noisy Rain

Image
 Last night it started to rain, a lot, and as you know I do not like it when it rains, it scares me. I don’t mind it when I’m out on my walk as you can see from my photos but I don’t like it when I’m inside. I just couldn’t help myself, I had to get off the bed and start digging. Nix was very understanding for once but she does try to get me back on the bed. In the end I gave up and got on the bed and was just drifting off when there was this really loud scary noise. Nix said it sounded like a very loud demented dalek whatever that is...it was very scary and made me and Nix really jump. Turned out to be something to do with her phone and the battery going...is it too much to ask that she keep a check on these things, nearly gave me a heart attack.  It hasn’t stopped raining all day so there are only photos of me wet. I didn’t stay wet for long, I blotted myself off on the sofa first and then Nix’s bed. She thought there were towels on it but I’d dug them all up. The best news today is

Big Boats and Little Dogs

Image
 There was a very big boat making a lot of noise when we got to the beach this morning. Nix thought that it was very interesting, me not so much. I suppose it shows just how boring Nix’s life really is.  We went down the river this afternoon. You know how Nix has always been scared of going over the bridge over the busy road. Well now she’s decided she doesn’t like going under the busy road either. I think the lockdown thingy has finally done it’s worst. She says it’s worse coming back because she can see it in the distance and knows she’s got to go under it eventually. I like it under there, it’s really noisy and you can hear the lorries above you racing along.  I like to think I took her mind off going under the bridge by perfecting another one of my annoying habits. I like to walk right behind her and when she looks over her right shoulder to make sure I’m still there I overtake her on the left. She thinks I’ve gone AWOL and starts panicking and calling me but I’m behind her all the
