Not had a very productive last few weeks. The mole removal incident really took it out of me and I havent been very good healthwise for the last month or so
( Read more... )
Oh gosh, a mole removal would freak me out! I imagine it would be a VERY physically and emotionally exhausting experience.
It would be great if you found a dog that was a good match for your family! It's always exciting when you bring a new pet home...even if it is hell on earth at first. For whatever reason the first few days (weeks, even) are always filled with anxiety and irrational "Oh god, this was a mistake" type fears for me.
"(x) eaten a whole pint of ice cream in one night (Regretably, yes...and although it sounds good in theory, you're stomach wont thank you for it, believe me!!)"
Haha, there's a comedian here named Sabrina Mathews that jokes that "If you eat a half a pint of icecream, you're a pig. If you eat a whole pint of icecream, you're the victor!" It's so true.
I don't have anything better to do, really, so I just might steal this survey.
I was just about to drop you a comment, as I haddn't heard from you in a while, I hope everything's been ok. Have you been up to anything interesting?

I think it would have been too if I'd manged to have the bloody thing removed, lol. But just as the surgeon was about to inject me with the local anesthetic my stupid needle phobia kicked in and had evil panick attack and wouldn't let surgeon/nurses anywhere near me. Oh well! Looks like the mole will stick around until they invent needless jabs. I am such a woss when it comes to needles.
For whatever reason the first few days (weeks, even) are always filled with anxiety and irrational "Oh god, this was a mistake" type fears for meI can totally understand that! I think if we do get another dog and had some problems or difficulties with Jake it would definately be an 'oh my god what did we do' type panic. I know when we got Jake for a while things were

Ack, I can't say I blame you. LOL. I remember having breakdowns (hyperventilating, crying, shaking, etc) before blood tests and such when I was younger. I got better after I got sick since I needed so many bloodtests at first that I managed to just get over my fear, but before that I was pretty bad.
I think knowning my mum and dad we'll be getting another

Awesome! Do your parents have any ideas or thoughts about what breed they'll go with?
I'd love another Greyhound or a lurcher as they're such placid/friendly dogs, but I don't think we'd be able to fit two of them in the house, lol. Mum and dad I think are after a nice medium sized cross breed. They're going to a local rescue centre to look at a 10 month old staffordshire bull terrier x (looks like it's crossed with a whippet) which has just come on the website adoption pages and looks/sounds perfect.
we've been casually looking for a playmate for Bambina
Cool :0D ! Did you do a lot of showing with Bogart? When we had Libby our poodle we did a bit of local showing, but we never got anywhere with her because we wouldn't give her that awful pom pom cut that the kennel club seems to think poodles should have.
