Molly and Aveline

Oh dear :( I seem to have got a bit behind with my blog. It's all down to my pets - they seem to have taken up rather a lot of my time this week!

Aveline, the now one-eyed cat, needed to go back to the vets on Wednesday to make sure everything was healing ok so that we could finally take her collar off, after Monday's visit to the vet with her. So, off we went on Wednesday afternoon after I'd finished work. Everything looked ok and the nurse was quite happy for the collar to finally be removed. Yay! (or so I thought). Driving home I kept checking to make sure she was ok in the carrier, and everything was going well until we were about a mile from home, when she decided to have a good scratch, right over the wound, and, you guessed it, she made it bleed and managed to open up the wound again :( I had to get home first, get DD to hold Aveline while I put her collar back on her, ring the vets to tell them what had happened and warn them I was on my way back, and then straight out and back to the vets where they managed to somehow tissue glue it all back together. Phew! What an afternoon! So poor Aveline still has a collar on until we're quite sure that she won't open up the wound again.

So that was Wednesday. Yesterday was my long day at work and then DH was later home than normal due to traffic, so that was yesterday sorted. And today it was Molly's turn to go to the vets, our Westie. She's been getting slower and less active over the last few months, sleeping more, getting grumpier, and eating less. She's also been having more and more moments when she seems to forget where she is and what she's supposed to be doing. The vet thinks she's probably got arthritis in her hips and possible dementia. But her heart sounds good which is encouraging :) So we came away with some medication to try with her and see if it helps. Fingers crossed for her.


Then after getting the normal food shopping done and sending off an order from Etsy that came through last night, I finally managed to get round to doing some crafting. I've had a few ideas for some cards that I wanted to try out, so here they are ……



…..and I've also had chance to make another cluster bracelet :) 


Busy, busy busy!

Why not have a look and see what else I've been making ………

Tomorrow is hopefully going to be our walking day this weekend, weather permitting and DD is away this weekend at her boyfriends. And just one more week to go for us before we're off work for a whole week! Hopefully lots of walking for us :)
