  7. It might be worth asking the vet for a blood test. We wish we had with Lulu, who unbeknown to us had kidney failure and we might not have lost her so soon if we had known earlier.

  11. I've been meaning to say how svelte you're looking. You always seem to be able to drop the weight by sticking to a food regime. I need to take a leaf out of your book.

    And it's back to the grind!

    XOXO

  14. Ah well, it's work that makes that cosy home possible, and keeps Winnie in cocktail sausages.

  15. Do you have a sitter for Winnie...someone to look in?

  16. Well, I'm at least relieved you weren't referring to biting ticks. THAT would have been an even bigger sigh.

  17. When I saw the word tick I got nervous. Ticks are no laughing matter here in the US. Just another issue that we need to watch for.

    1. I have just had a tick buried head-in and feasting on my juicy arm. Fortunately my wife removed it, head and all, with a very gentle tweezering, whereas I would have probably yanked too hard and left the head in. No sign of any complications so far... Tick :)

  20. I find a list very reassuring even if for me all I can manage is doggies and today's try and sew a better mask and no flap ear wrap for flappy ears to save £30- Dorothy looks to be a very caring carer for Winnie-all looks peaceful and relaxed so you can go and earn some money for them all x

    Baby bomers are already being abused in the retirement homes, and the only way you baby bomers will escape this fate is by killing yourselves before you reach the stage of life where you are old and helpless.

    You deserve this for destroying your own children's future. No one is coming to save you. Suicide is your only hope.

    What a serene picture of Winnie and Dorothy all snuggled in. I wonder if Dorothy is concerned about Winnie so is staying close?

    Wishing you a pleasant day at work and a happy home when you return there.

    Hugs!

  28. What a lovely still life that photo is, John!

    I made a list for all the items i need to get done at work today. There are ten main ones. I've already done four that weren't on the list but needed to happen 'right now'. I've been able to make two ticks on the list.

    Everyone screaming, all wanting to be first. Like a delicatessen, I'll take them in the order in which i received them. Next!

    You have an affect on many of us Mr Gray you know, in a good way that is. You share your life with us on these pages and the outcome is that we feel part of your life and sort of become part of your family and that includes all your lovely animals.

    I hope work was okayish and you are back home safe and sound and having a cuddle and a cocktail sausage with the crew.
    Go very Gently my friend (never met)

  41. Hello, everyone.My name is Kate Curtis, 36 years old from Canada. I,m here to explore blogs and forums about the wonderful and most safe cure for HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS (HSV).
    I was positive to the deadly virus called HERPES and I lost hope because I was outcast and rejected even by my closest friends.
    I searched on-line to find an enquirer cure for HERPES and I read someone's testimony on how he was cured from HSV-2 so i decided to contact the same herbalist Called Dr James because i know that nature has the power to heal everything.
    i contacted him to know how he can help me and he told me never to worry that he will help me with the natural herbs from God!
    After 2 days of contacting him, he told me that the cure has been ready and he sent it to me via DHL COURIER SERVICE and it got to me after 3 days!
    i used the medicine as he instructed me (MORNING and EVENING) and i was cured!
    it's really like a dream but I am so happy!
    That's the reason I decided to also add more comments on Him so that more can be saved just like me!
    and if you need his help, you can email him on Drjamesherbalmix@gmail.com or whatsapp +2348152855846.

  42. FINALLY FREE FROM HERPES VIRUS
    I thought my life had nothing to offer anymore because lifebecame meaningless to me because I had Herpes virus, thesymptoms became very severe and bold and made my familyrun from and abandoned me so they won't get infected. I gaveup everything, my hope, dreams,vision and job because thedoctor told me there's no cure. I consumed so many drugs butthey never cured me but hid the symptoms inside me makingit worse. I was doing some research online someday when Icame across testimonies of some people of how DR Ebhotacured them from Herpes, I never believed at first and thoughtit was a joke but later decided to contact him on the detailsprovided and when I messaged him we talked and he sent mehis herbal medicine and told me to go for a test after twoweeks. Within 7 days of medication the symptomsdisappeared and when I went for a test Lo and behold I wasNEGATIVE by the Doctor Who tested me earlier. Thank you DREbhota because I forever owe you my life and I'll keep ontelling the world about you. If you are going through samesituation worry no more and contact DR Ebhota viadrebhotasolution@gmail. com or WhatsApp him via +2348089535482.he also special on cureing 1. HIV/AIDS2. HERPES 3.
