    Amy reportage - didn't realise what I was taking on when I decided to get a puppy, I think it must be like having a baby. Have to prepare meals for her 4 times a day, make sure she always has clean water, take her outside to use the toilet facilities about 16 times a day, get up a couple of times in the night to do same, clean up the toilet accidents and other mess she creates, play with her to keep her entertained, and keep a watchful eye on her to stop her chewing things. She seems to need to keep her mouth constantly occupied when she's not resting, either with eating, drinking, chewing, or play biting. In order to feed myself or have a bath or go to the post office I have to put her in her cage for a little while and then I feel guilty about that. Did I mention that I love her?
    Awwwhhhhhhh.........

    Ach, that's a lovely post. ) She certainly sounds like a handful but that's prolly a good thing in the long-run as it means she has character. Don't feel guilty about the cage... it makes them feel secure apparently. Taco next door loves his cage and goes in it on his own accord... can't get him out sometimes in fact! I'm glad you two have bonded.

    Kittens are a handful too, especially when you get them really young. Sean was taken away from his mam before he knew how to eat and I had to bottle feed him for a few weeks. Used to tie a knot behind my back on an oversize t-shirt and carry him around like a kangaroo! He wore a sock with four holes in it for the first few weeks. And was sick everywhere. And pooped all over the place... ah yes, fond memories... :h

    I feckin HATE shaggingironing! With a passion! I usually have mountains of clothes in the dining room, waiting their turn to see the ironing board. :upset: I'll even pick some off the stack and put them on unironed. I used to even iron my pajamas but One2Many managed to me stop doing that nonsense, and now I've gone totally to the dark side.

    Whizzy? Congratulations on your 45th Anniversary! What an innings! You deserve a medal woman!

    Mr d?Arsey? How did the interview go? Did you charm the feck out of them with your winsome Scottish ways? (I used to live in Aberdeen btw? for 2 years.)

    Tipps? How is the now lighter Samuel L Catson?

    Sweety? Sorry to hear about the backache? I get that fairly often myself (I have scoliosis, had it since I was a wain). Lately I?ve been taking anti-inflammatories instead of painkillers and they help a lot? maybe you want to give that a shot?

    Foxy? Maybe you want to try the anti-inflams too?

    Jacks? What did ye buy me?

    Yoooo Hooooo to a?body else!

    Stormy and overcast here today but it?s still chuffing hot & humid. :upset: 81 degrees farenheit? Gah! and Bah! Got to go grocery shopping and had planned on taking a trip up to the organic farm for a haul of veggies. Not much of a day for driving with the rain though, and it's a long way, so it may get postponed till the morrow.

    Mollers... Forgot to menshun before... I got the S4 and am really liking it. The sound quality on the calls is amazing. )

        Kitty reportage: the ball-less wonder is home. Bedraggled but OK. About to get a bath (he wet himself), then food if he wants it, then to mum's room with blankie and heater on and Jasmine to give some TLC - she loves him to bits.

          Awwwhhhh, poor wee mite. Is it OK to bathe him right after his snip?

          The blankie, heater and Jasmine sounds pretty good though... can I snuggle up too?

            Lycra, soft fabrics and hanging things up straight to dry are all your friends.

              General wavings, yooooooooooo hoooooooooos and good evenings.

              Twas, my pleasure, Reccybear.

              Never made the high street just nipped up to friggingtesco as I realised the cupboards were bare. Isn't there a nursery rhyme about that.
              Anyhoo ended up making a mega spag bol and pork meatballs (sowwy kitty) in sweet and sour sauce............which leaves me free to watch the last season of House tomorrow.

                That'll be Old Mother Hubbard.

                Old Mother Hubbard
                Went to the cupboard,
                To give the poor dog a bone;
                When she came there,
                The cupboard was bare,
                And so the poor dog had none.

                She went to the baker's
                To buy him some bread;
                When she came back
                The dog was dead!

                She went to the undertaker's
                To buy him a coffin;
                When she came back
                The dog was laughing.

                She took a clean dish
                to get him some tripe;
                When she came back
                He was smoking his pipe.

                She went to the alehouse
                To get him some beer;
                When she came back
                The dog sat in a chair.

                She went to the tavern
                For white wine and red;
                When she came back
                The dog stood on his head.

                She went to the fruiterer's
                To buy him some fruit;
                When she came back
                He was playing the flute.

                She went to the tailor's
                To buy him a coat;
                When she came back
                He was riding a goat.

                She went to the hatter's
                To buy him a hat;
                When she came back
                He was feeding her cat.

                She went to the barber's
                To buy him a wig
                When she came back
                He was dancing a jig.

                She went to the cobbler's
                To buy him some shoes;
                When she came back
                He was reading the news.

                She went to the sempstress
                To buy him some linen;
                When she came back
                The dog was spinning.

                She went to the hosier's
                To buy him some hose;
                When she came back
                He was dressed in his clothes.

                The Dame made a curtsy,
                The dog made a bow;
                The Dame said, Your servant;
                The dog said, Bow-wow.

                This wonderful dog
                Was Dame Hubbard's delight,
                He could read, he could dance,
                He could sing, he could write;
                She gave him rich dainties
                Whenever he fed,
                And erected this monument
                When he was dead.

                      It's the first time I've seen that in full :goodjob: UKB

                      Dunno if we were supposed to give Sammy a bath, but he stank of cat urine... ugh. He's fast asleep now, though. Mum kindly donated one of her hot water bottles to keep him cosy. He's curled up on her bed. Jasmine is really fantastic - she lay next to him on her bedding for an hour or two, until he got up to have a bite to eat.

                      I'm off to bed now, so I'll see you on the morrow.

                              I have been out of the loop for a few days - worried sick that I would lose my job. I didn't thankfully, but the company has merged and no one will tell us what that means. Just waiting. No more layoffs, thankfully. At least I don't feel like I am going to barf all the time. Dealt with the stress with meditation and crying. No drinks that's for sure. My middle daughter started high school today, and the little one starts first grade tomorrow. Holy cow. SO many things.

                              Hope you are well

                              Smoochies,
