morning all breezy and cloudy ,

Morning all ~~

Miserable wet and windy grey day here :(
Back is playing up, think I'm sleeping awkwardly to try and keep my right arm straight, to stop the pain in my hand and wrist !!

Tho I did a brisk 2 mile walk and did a bit of shopping, I had to catch the bus home ! Couldn't carry the shopping with the pain in my back !
I expect it will go as soon as it comes, hope so anyway .

Miserable old day weather-wise here today.
Hope everyone's OK.:)

I only had cat's when I was a small child, we had a tabby and a black cat.
I loved them both and used to cuddle and play with them, but the black one was a right horror, scrammed me to pieces, used to steal food from the kitchen table --if your back was turned, he was a stray and disappeared out of the blue the same as he arrived !

Hi~~
It's a hard choice to make Paula , a puppy or a rescue dog.
Dad was 78 when I persuaded him to have a dog when mum died, he said he couldn't cope with a puppy to train so we had a young mutt from the rescue centre, part lab with various other's breeds thrown in.
We couldn't have wished for a better temperamental dog with children, mine were 4 and 2 at the time,..wasn't too keen on male strangers , he lived with dad but saw the children when dad visited or I visited him, lived with us or dad til he was 18.
Children and I in tears when I had to take him to the vets for the final time..
On the other hand I had a rescue pup before I had children and he turned into a schizo, wouldn't have let him near unknown adults let alone children, he didn't grow up with children , unfortunately he 'turned' on my dad (who had had dogs since he was a child ) and I had not option but to have him put to sleep:((
Take your grandchildren along with you which ever road you choose to go along , the dog often chooses you rather than the other way around:)
Best of luck.
Hope you're feeling better soon :)
Thanks Maz re son, I hope he doesn't under or over sell himself, better to price yourself not too low, then get a good reputation and move upwards :)

hi folks
well last day out today have been into durham for lunch today not done much else
Andrew is busy with the youth athletics driving them around so not seen him much this week end
Sandie am pleased your son is doing well
paula hope you feel better soon

past few days the weather has been nice so washing has dried on the line no problem.
Molly finally ate her dinner and had a game with her ball yesterday for the first time since Keira had to be put to sleep.I'm so pleased she is beginning to feel better.She was fretting so much I was worried I would lose her too.
I am undecided whether to buy a puppy or take a rescue dog.Having the grand kids here a lot is a worry with bringing a strange dog in to the house which might not be too keen on little ones but so many dogs are abandoned.
Have had an upset tummy since last night so spent a fair bit of time in the bathroom lol
Hope you are both well ladies xxx

Hi all~~

Gone a bit wet this afternoon :( Shouldn't grumble had a fine morning and clothes dried.)

Started to dry off again so hubby's going to dig up all the remaining potatoes and beetroot:)
I hate having to buy so called fresh beetroot or bottled, home-grown is so so much better.

Afternoon all~~

It's remained bright and dry, but not as sunny as we suspected.

Son has just got his first customer for whom he will make a website , his hairdresser, as a gesture for offering to do so gave him a reduced price haircut /style this am, and a free straightening next week !.lol
His hair is dead straight ,but it curves around towards his ear on the left hand side and said hairdresser will 'perm it' I assume so it lies straight on the nape of his neck !! Wow , what a big deal !!

He'll get a few £100 for setting up the required website tho :) and he loves doing it.
