Spring Tuesday


It's the first day of Spring today, or so I'm told on the radio. Got confused as the Equinox is tomorrow but of course it is Leap Year ......

A grey and chilly first day of Spring here. May try and get some more weeding done, but I am a bit stiff from yesterday - shoulders and top of arms surprisingly.

OH is playing golf today, so it may be cuddle up on the sofa with Monty and read .........

Big news is that Pip is on a diet! He has suddenly put on weight and can't jump up onto the kitchen worktop! He's not 3 yet and is an active boy. My theory is that he is eating for comfort as he doesn't show other stress signs from being pounced on by Monty. Poor lad, I know how he feels about the extra weight and I shall try to give him extra comfort while he trims down. I don't suppose it will take too long.

Have a good day folks!

Re: Spring Tuesday


morning Angie and all to follow.
Cuddling up with Monty and a book sounds delightful
Good luck Pip with your diet.
Been out walking with the dogs and they have just had their meal of raw minced lamb and biscuits, followed by a dish of veggie water, yum, yum. Have to watch Kwame with the water as he tries to drink the lot and it does seem to act as a diuretic.
Need to do a bit of housework and then it's work this afternoon for me.

Re: Spring Tuesday


Hello.. Spring you say? Hmm, here its looking more like fall today

We had to cut our walk short, as Luna stepped on a bit of glass I wish they would stop making bottles in glass and stick to just plastic.

It doesn't bleed much, so I've rinsed it with some antisept and she seems fine, no limping..

Re: Spring Tuesday


Hope Luna's foot heals up quickly Jeanette, it's dreadful when glass is just dropped anywhere.

Morgan and I had a longer walk than expected this afternoon. My manicurist had her baby on Sunday (Mothering Sunday, what good timing is that!) and as I'd knitted a cute little pink hat for her, I thought I'd drop it in at the salon today. Normally I drive there but it's a nice day so I decided to walk and take Morgan even though he'd already had his hour in the woods, a good bit of onlead walking was just what he needs. I could cut along a footpath, a shorter route than driving, there and back about 50-55 minutes I reckoned. Boy did I underestimate how long it takes on foot! plus the boy wanted to sniff every lampost/gatepost/wall/fence etc so a lot of corrective input needed. In all we were out for over 2 hours, I'm hot and bothered, my feet hurt and he's crashed out on the sofa! Who knew the salon was so far?

I'm off to put the kettle on, I need a cuppa
