Hiya dear Grandy π©ββ€οΈβπ© Hannahπ Pawsy πΎ and all π
Dear lady so happy you had some quality time with your lovely brother. Shame it wasn't a longer visit, maybe next time when he's finished settling in fully. I too feel very grateful to your dear brother ahh Grandy ππ€π. It's awful feeling so empty and alone like that sweetyheart. My π2U.
Good hearing works ok. It'd be so much better now without friction no one needs eh. And that's how it should be people doing what they're there for. Be be easier going there now.
How beautiful you are hun taking in that dear sounding Pepper. Loven they seem to all get on well. Is he trained lovey?
You're so gorgeous popping into mine thank you for always a lovely visit. I'll be back lovey soonish βΊ
You do incredibly well with the lawns darl that's a mammoth job as you well know. I'd love you to do it over at least a couple of days but also understand it's a big job out the way and I guess if it was staggered you'd have varying lengths of grass growing π it's that I worry about your heart and rest of physical health but then I guess it's activity that they say movement in exercise is good for us. How's the bursitis going hun? Apparently in time it settles but being in the hip with any movement that'd be pretty hard not to I'd imagine constantly aggravating it. It's a big ouch
Ok my lovely hoping to finally finish my passwords today or could that be sometime in the future, π nah need to finish them tho SO much easier already, big relief. Then I can put more effort into other Projects,
Hope today you have some π and can dig up some beautiful memories to make you feel good and enjoy some smiles my gorjy βΊ
Grandy Mr gorgeous π and I were having a squiz in a cheapy shop yesterday. From as long as I remember I've always been excuse the pun π drawn to pens pencils felt pens blank paper etc and of course crafty glitters. Not that I need reminders to think of you but you were so strongly in my thoughts looking at all the glittery stuff I even imagined saying to you oh look at those like I was to my darling too. Really love you Grandy you're daily in my thoughts multiple times. Absolute truth.
So much peace & security having our beautiful friendship huns π
Aydimh sweet lady. You're never alone sweet cause we're always together even tho virtually it still feels as real as it can be.
Have a lovely day precious love and everyone we all deserve goods.

Hello Dear Deebiπ©ββ€οΈβπβπ©, Paws, Hanna, mmMeKitty and all π€.
My brother has arrived home safely...and settling in to his new home....I miss him and I know I shouldnβt be...I feel annoyed that he moved so far away...
My new little fur girl..Peppa (I changed the spelling)...is a handful and a half....Iβve lost 2 cushions and a door stop...I have to learn to say no....I never think of the consequences first....Kya and Ebony are a little afraid of her...if that doesnβt change soon...I really will think about re homing her somewhere....She is cute and I feel safer with a bigger dog...but donβt want my other dogs to get anxiety over her....
We have a meeting after work on Tuesday, with the area boss....not wanting to go to that, but as I will be working that day...I have no choice...
Oh really Deebi...I love pens and have quite a few in my small collection...Mostly just different designs and shapes on the part we hold...I wish I was their with you bbff...we would have had fun...
I tried those dried soup veggies tonight..I rinsed them, soaked them overnight..then rinsed them again..added them to a chicken I was boiling for the soup...then cooked them so long they turned to mush...Great cooking Grandy! not!...
Ever had days when things just donβt right...Today and yesterday are 2 of those days...Tomorrow is another day..sure hope itβs better then these past couple of days...I havenβt been sleeping much lately...My silly brain wonβt let me go to bed...sometimes I get a fear of my bed...I canβt get past...itβs a real fear....like a feeling of impending doom...so until it passes..I sleep on the lounge which isnβt comfortable at all....and does aggravate my hip a lot...
I will pogo stick over to yours either tonight or tomorrow my bbff.... Much big sss love my dearest friend..ππ¦πΌπ¦π..with a bear π§Έ hug π€ or two...
My love, care and hugs to everyone..ππΉπ¦π€..

Hello Grandy, wave to all,
It's ok not to be happy about your brother moving away... I only moved 3 hours away from my sisters & they are still not happy that I've moved so far... even though it has been over 5 years now.
I usually cook those dried soup veggies until they are mushy... they make a nice thick filling soup that way... that's my excuse anyway ππ
Puppies do like destroying things don't they... I don't think I could do coping with the puppy phase again... given your girls are ok with Mrs nsc's dogs (including the big one) I hope they do settle with Peppa despite her mischief.
Oh lass I'm sorry you're not sleeping well at the moment... it's horrible when our mind has a mind of it's own... mine often won't let me go to bed while it's dark... the fear is very real... it's frustrating isn't it.
Woofa & I will keep our paws & fingers crossed that tomorrow is a better day for you
Huggliest of hugs
Paws

Hello Dear Paws, Waves to Deebiπ©ββ€οΈβπβπ©, Hanna mmMeKitty π€..
Thank you Paws...I donβt feel to bad now about the dried soup veggies being so mushy...maybe me soup wasnβt the same texture as I normally cook...but it sure tasted okay...
Peppa keeps me busy, very busy...I forgot how much extra work is involved with puppies....although she is 12 months old not that young, so I really hope she settles down after a while....
I havenβt said anything to Mrs nsc..about Peppa...of course she has seen her running around my backyard....I know she will have something to say about her...so Iβm keeping away from her....
Ive had this problem with my bed on and off for a few years now.....itβs where some of my trauma took place...I do have another bed in my spare room....I have thought about swapping them around...needs muscles πͺ to do that though...(which I donβt have)...
Today, that goodness seems to be a better day....I might try to do something today, if I can get my motivation up and running....
Keep warm Paws, itβs snowing close by me and the winds coming from the snow is icy...
Hugs everyone with my love and care..π€ππΉ.

Hi Grandy and everyone,
I think a one year old dog can still be very full of energy! I think her breed adds to that... does she go out for walks with you/play with the other dogs you have? I don't know what sort of abuse she suffered, do you know what happened? Perhaps this has upset her and affected her behavour?
I'm not qualified to advise you what to do... I wonder can you see how she and your other doggies settle down over a few more days, and depending on that, and how you are then feeling, either decide to keep her or hand her over to the RSPCA.... or wherever you decide. You can only do your best, and if it doesn't work out, at least you know you have tried.
Another dog is a fair bit of work for you. I am thinking of a cat, and I know that is more work for me...
It's going to be very cold over the next few days... I had to buy myself an extra warm jumper today, the ones I had weren't warm enough - funnily enough the warmest one was at Kmart, who would have thought?
Sam loves this weather and especially the autumn leaves, so he loves running along through the park!
Keep warm. As people here are saying, in this climate we do have to have some hearing on when it's bitterly cold. hugs from us here to you oxoxoxoxox

Dear Grandy,
i havenβt been by for a while, but I have been reading your posts.
i think you are coping really well at the moment. It must have been lovely to see your brother.
A new doggie, I think that sounds like fun, but having your older dogs be comfortable with her, is important, I understand that.
i am not in such a good place myself and struggle to get up and get things done. There doesnβt seem much point. My doggies are on my bed with me, keeping my feet warm. They are both pretty old now and I wonder how much longer I will have them. I will be very sad when their time here is up.
being afraid of your bed, is a worry, it is where I am most comfortable. I would perform some sort of cleansing ceremony, to move the past away. It might not work, but Iβd give it a go. Swapping the beds is a good idea, you just need to recruit some muscle.
Is it very cold where you are? It is cold here, but sunny.
take care dear Grandy.
Thinking of you
Tess

Hello Hanna, Deebiπ©ββ€οΈβπβπ©, Tess Paws and everyone...π€...
Deebi....My home is your home as well dear bbff...please donβt be sorry about posting a post you meant for your thread onto mine instead....I said I would be over yours but havenβt been...sorry...but will soon...
Hanna, Because I work mon and tues my dogs are on their own....they have access to inside the house and full yard...Monday it was another cushion..thatβs no 2 ..Today it was a rubber backed bath mat....Thatβs all okay, I know Peppa is having fun...and they are replaceable....my two fur babies are getting more and more comfortable with her...Oh no...I could never give her to the RSPCA...she is a survivor and Iβve already lost my heart to her...
Tess..thank you dear lady for calling in...Itβs not good that your struggling so much....Is it okay dear friend if I pop over to yours so we can chat?...
The works meeting yesterday left me feeling so inadequate...mainly because like always Iβm sitting near the door away from the group and even though Iβm trying hard to listen...they were just jumbled up words coming out of the managers mouth....My brain is alway on high alert when Iβm in a room with a group of people...when I was asked a few questions about what I think needs improvement in the shop...like always my mouth feels super glued shut, I can feel all eyes on me and when I do talk my voice starts to quiver....Gosh I hate this anxiety of mine....
We have a power outage for the entire morning until mid afternoon...out comes my little gas camp stove...hmm got to have my cuppa teas if I want to be field enough to attempt doing some cleaning today...
Deebi...again sorry I havenβt popped over to yours...big SSS love precious friend...ππΉπ¦π§Έπ€.. πof you 24/7 with my care...π§Έπ€
Much love, care and hugs everyone..ππΉπ¦π€.

Hi Grandy and everyone
Sorry I haven't been here for a bit. My goodness hasn't the weather been cold lately!
It certainly sounds like Peppa is having fun at your place Grandy! I had to chuckle when I read what she's been up to with your cushions! I'm so glad to hear she is settling in OK, that's wonderful, you have an even bigger fur family now!
I know how you feel about groups, I'm no good at talking in groups either, I can totally relate to what you say. I just accept this is how I am, I'm not going to change much now... I do envy people who can be relaxed in groups - my mother was very harsh on me when I was out socially, so I blame my acute anxiety on that, and I know it's just how I am and I can't fix it now.
I have to dash to an appointment that has been moved earlier today, so sending big hugs from us here ooxxooo
