How is everyone doing today?
I’ve been trying to keep myself busy done some gardening, normal house work things glad the weekend is over it’s the worst time for me!
Might go for a walk later depends on how the weather is overcast at the moment will have to find something else to do if it rains! Grieving is so horrible painful but we understand how we all feel let’s hope the good days come soon!

Morning Abi, I’ve been trying to keep busy today too. It is dull here as well, so don’t fancy going out to be honest, there’s no one to see. I could walk I know, I’ll see how I feel. I have seen my brother and nephews this weekend, it was really tough though. They live far from me, my son took me, my anxiety was pretty bad though and I felt quite ill at times. It’s the first time I’ve visited without my partner. I’m pretty exhausted today so I probably need a rest. I hope you find some good in the day today. Thinking of you. Take care

The weekends and this one being even longer because of the bank holiday are hard to cope with. I try to keep busy which helps. The weather is quite overcast but not raining. I am going to do some gardening this afternoon. Hope you get through it the best you can . Look after yourself

Thank you Sherbet, hope you manage to get out a bit before any rain. Sending hugs

Hi Sherbet, our long weekend started on Friday as it was a holiday. Today I have been out all morning doing things but driving home in the pouring rain I couldn’t stop crying. When I got home there was a horrible smell in the kitchen from my sweet dogs. One or both have rubbed themselves in something so I’ve got to give them baths and wash their beds when I did it a week ago when the sun was shining. Sorry for moaning but some days I wish there was a fast forward button.
I hope you all find more joy in your afternoon
Wishing you all the best
Tom


Have a lovely afternoon if you can let’s hope the sun will shine tomorrow!
Hi Tom
Sorry you’re having a rough day , the weather doesn’t help when it’s raining. Although it’s cloudy here so far it hasn’t rained. It’s hard having to wash 2 dogs on your own. I don’t know if you have fox’s in Spain.If dogs ever roll in fox poo OH G what a stink . It’s really hard to get rid of the smell. Hope your afternoon brightens up for you .
Hi Sherbet, thank you. I don’t know what they got up to but it wasn’t pleasant. As I don’t take them on the lead they do what they want which sometimes results in unpleasant outcomes. I wiped them down with vinegar first which eliminates most smells. We do have foxes and wild boar both smelly 
The weather forecast is rain all week so we will see.
Wishing you all the best
Tom

Hi Tom
My border collies used to be off they the lead . They would roll into anything, fox poo was always the worst. I had to get some special shampoo to get rid of the smell.I don’t let my English setter of the lead as his recall isn’t good . He soon gets distracted. I do have a long line for him so he still gets his run . Take Care
