Tired

Irune - thank you. I always have a soft spot for blue.

Eileen - there's quite a bit of weight to it, which I think helps. It's not so soft, but definitely warm.

I had a rotten night last night, then drove to help out a friend who needed lifts with a poorly cat. Then I came home, then back to pick up bear, then home, then off to take bear to the climbing, then home - around fifty miles all told, and some of the roads were tricky. I'm exhausted. I didn't manage to get the writing done for today. To be honest, I'm barely keeping my eyes open as I type. 

I am determined to keep going with the pics, though. Here is a pic that I took today of something that made me happy.

My friend bought me some treats, and we had some, then they came home with me and were very much appreciated. To show how much they were appreciated, I thought I would share a pic of the empty tub!

It has been a tough day, to be honest. The news was not good for my friend's cat, and then I found out that my brother had lost his dog, Woody. He had been on Scarborough beach, got the vomiting bug and was too elderly to fight through it. Woody was a rescue, probably around the same age as bear, and something of a mix. My brother got him when Woody was around three years old, and at the time the poor dog wasn't sure about carpet and didn't know what a treat was. Fortunately, he landed on his paws and was truly loved and incredibly well looked after. He saved bear from a locked room. Well, sort of. Bear went to have a rest in a room, but the door knob came away and he was stuck. It was Woody that let us know to go and get bear out. 

Woody was a good dog, full of love, always scrounging snacks and as gentle as you would wish. He's going to be missed.

And the writing stuff will definitely be there tomorrow.

Hugs and good health to all.
