Writing 2026
My car slid on ice this morning when I was driving back from walking Lydia, after taking her to the groomers.
Vicky, as always, did an amazing job in keeping Lydia trimmed and clipped, and Lydia enjoyed the extra treats.
The K9 bridle that I’d ordered for her arrived and I tried it on (her, not me!). She seemed not too unhappy but that’s in the house – we’ll see how we fare when her sniffing instincts come into full play tomorrow on our walk.
Tired today, I’ve rested a lot, getting up to eat some birthday cake that my friend kindly bought for me – complete with candles. I blew them out and made my wish.
I drank the rest of the birthday fizz that another friend had given me, also trying out some sour cherry gin. I discovered that it pairs very well with chocolate, and not on a small-plate basis!
It’s still cold outside but the house has warmed up again. It’s amazing what a difference central heating makes; so glad we had our gas fire to fall back on though.
