Honey and I slept together again last night, but not exactly peacefully. She rolled over so I had her pinned leg in my face! I tried to wriggle around it and managed to get it into a position she was ok with and so was I. I rolled over and found myself right on the edge, almost hanging off the mattress! She was quite happy all night but I woke and turned over a few times. I had set the alarm for 8.30 just to make sure I woke up in time to take Honey to the vet again. Another change of dressing today under sedation. They all know Honey at the vet and the reception ladies all make a fuss of her, which she laps up. The vet, Dan, is pretty cute and reminds me a bit of a children's TV presenter whose name I can never remember, or maybe a bit of Toby Anstis. Anyway Honey was happy to go with him and I'll pick her up later this afternoon. I think she is fit enough to start going for little walks now. I asked the vet and he's going to check with the orthopedic vet's notes. My road is a cul-de-sac but there is a footpath cutting through to the main road behind my house, so I could easily walk Honey down the road a bit and then through to the grassy area on the main road. She would love to have a good sniff around and maybe meet a few dogs. She is getting stir crazy being at home all the time. She was excited when she realised we were going out this morning, even though it was to the vet. It will be good for me to get moving more too.
Yesterday was fun with the grandsons. They had a lovely Christmas day with loads of presents. It was more excitement yesterday with a pile of presents to open up. It didn't take them long to unwrap everything and then it was on to the PlayStation 3 to play Lego Harry Potter! Looks like it will be a popular game they can both play.
We had a lovely tea there too.
Today is back to normal pretty much. Jen's vanished off to Salisbury until Wednesday night. She's working Thursday and Friday but will be off again back to the horses Friday night I'm sure. Here's a video of Teddy at play in the snow. Nice for him to be active with all his blankets and coats off.
This week will give me a chance to get my head down on Swanage Folk Festival and the club's upcoming dates. Hours on the pc - whoopdedoo! LOL
Make the most of any time off you might have this week, relax and enjoy!
