I do like having them, but 4 weeks is a bit much particularly with Daisy's separation anxiety. I am borrowing a cage from M so hoping to get her used to that in the weeks in between, but not holding my breath :-0 :-0

I must be oiff now so sleep well and I'll catch you tomorrow :-) <3

You know you love it YG ;-) :-D :-D. I will have to organise our cat sitter again after a year without needing to.

YG Report 20 Feb 2023 22:28

Definitely no peace, LG :-D

I have some dog sitting to do coming up!! 3 night next week with the little hell raiser, then two weeks mid April with Poppy, followed immediately without a break of two weeks with the little one again!! The two weeks overlap, so she will have to go to the boarders for two days until M & R get back. They will pick up Oscar and Daisy and drop Daisy off with me :-0 :-0 :-0 Phew!!!!

It sounds as though things are all falling into place for all of you :-D. We are looking forward to getting away in June for a well earned week of sanity. We then have a second week booked in August and we are taking the 2 oldest Gooners with us,,no peace then ;-) :-D :-D :-D

Everything is pretty much sorted, V & B are going over at the end of April for two weeks for a holiday and to finalise all the requirements, The dogs are all booked in with a lady not far from M's that boards a small number of dogs as I obviously won't be around to have Poppy, so at least all 3 of them will be together :-) :-)

Apart from that, I just need to keep focusing in getting things I need month by month as funds allow!! Waiting for spring/summer stock to come in and to hopefully get a bit of weight off when the weather warms up!!

It has been a s**t year for us and still not finished yet :-(

YG

YG Report 20 Feb 2023 21:26

That has gone by quickly, LG :-0 What a year it has been though, one way or another :-0 I thought that once we were more or less over the pandemic that things would return to normal! I've almost forgotten what life was like then :-0 :-0

I agree with you on that one. We realised earlier on when we were writing a birthday card for baby boy's fiance that it is one year tomorrow that we moved here. :-0 :-0.

They should have the system set up to put out a voice message 15 mins before they are due to close for the day, advising that no further calls can be accepted, or staff should be expected to finish any call that they are on at closing time before clocking off. When I worked at Sains** we always finished 30 mins after the store closed which allowed time to serve the last stragglers at the checkout and empty the tills.

OH had that happen with British Gas when we moved here. We had no Gas or Electric and needed to top up the meter. We had no cards to do it with so he called them. They cut him off 3 times during the day and then he was just getting through to them about the problem when 5 o'clock arrived and he was cut off as the office closed. We spent the evening wrapped in duvets and with coats hats and gloves as it was freezing with snow on the ground :-|. The next morning they went through hell and finally got us sorted.

I'm ok, LG :-)

Just calming down from another round with BT on the phone and I think he just left me hanging as they finish at 8pm. I was holding while he checked something, but hadn't come back to me after 7 mins, which was after 8pm, so presume I was 'stood up' :-| :-|
