well we're all settling in again. Gizzy's back to ambushing me in the bathroom in the mornings, Murphy's back to the vet with his latest ailment. Andy (No. 2 stepson) is back to being out and Emily is being very helpful as I try to get going on MSN'ing - more difficult (and fun!) than you would think
I had one of those random encounters in the vets yesterday morning (after having to run out a partner's meeting half way through to make the appointment). After calming Murphy down after half strangling him with his collar to stop him retaliating to the previous patient's "come on and have a go if you think you're hard enough!" growls (it was an alsation!) I glanced over at another woman there - and she was peering at me too .... and lo and behold ! It was Nicola Gunn from school in Glasgow! All married and with her son (looked about 8) with her and the dog..I couldn't believe it! I haven't seen her for over 20 years and there she was, looking all fab and trendy - and still talking nighteen to the dozen.. (people don't change, do they?) and she's married to a guy who was in my year at Uni and they live pretty close. . . spooky!
Anyway, I digress . . . Murphy is now on more antibiotics for his ear (which now reacting to the drops we were giving him to clear the infection he had in it last week) - as ever it's no problem getting him to take them, he thinks they're sweeties
and we've really confused him by letting him up on the sofa last night and the night before.. I think we'll have to stop it he doesn't know if he's coming or going and lies there looking terribly guilty before it finally gets too much for him and he slinks off to a doggy haunt at ground level...
