Good Shepherd Sunday Today 🙂

 


Well Nix has been quite busy today and I mainly slept. First of all at church we had a visit from archdeacon Martin as it is Good Shepherd Sunday. Nix rather enjoyed his sermon, it was about joining up dots apparently…I slept through it 🙂 Rev Jane had asked Nix to take a photo of archdeacon Martin for our church newsletter. Kay our church warden had already asked him and so after the service he and Nix set off for the Good Shepherd banner at the front of church. As Nix was taking the photo someone from the congregation asked her if she’d like to be in the photo too. Nix was mortified and had to explain to the archdeacon that she is always taking photos for ‘her dog’s’ blog. Anyway he said he was happy to be in the blog so I shall get Nix to post the photo thankfully without her in it. 




After church we had our Good Shepherd lunch in the church hall. Nix had a veggie Shepherd’s Pie (of course) and afterwards there was rhubarb and apple crumble with custard made with rhubarb from Canon Tony’s allotment. I took centre stage in my bed in the middle of the room so I wasn’t really in anyone’s way and I slept pretty much right through. 





So apart from a walk before church and a walk after church I have just had one more walk to the beach. All in all I have probably slept for a lot longer than I’ve been awake but I have enjoyed my day. There were no accidents last night so I shall probably be getting another walk later on tonight just to make sure we are accident free again.

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...
