I need to take Harlee into the vet to have her teeth checked this afternoon after work, (luckily I finish early enough to be able to take her to a 3.30pm appointment). I’m pretty certain she needs a tooth removed, and 100%that she’ll need them cleaned too. I think both of us are going to be very pleased when it’s over and done with!

Test run to see if I’ve got adding photos to pisrs on my phone set up correctly!
I had my last appitment with my durgeon yesterday, hopefully I won’t need any more any time soon! Everything seems to be Ok at least, which is a massive plus.
I have to have fluid drained from my abdomin again this afternoon. It’s the 3rd time this year, but at least its not as bad as the 1st one as its a lot less fluid. I’m not happy about this obviously.
What food would you say is your specialty?
My lasgna in particular is great, even if its annoying and time consuming to make. I’ve made a point of improving my stir frys because they’re quick to make and have lots of veges in them!
What have you been working on?
Apart from the usual stuff, like going to work, I’ve been trying to get on top of things. Doing little cleaning jobs here and there, trykng to get more exercise, stuff like that. I’ve been aiming to do 2 to 3 smaller extra “jobs” or 1 bigger one each day. I do try to follow the “No zero days” thing, do all the absolute essentials each day, and try to do a few extra things each and every day on top of that.
What’s something most people don’t know about you?
I’ve been having on going complications from the surgeries I had to have, and I’ve had constant lingering pain in certain areas. I worry about the amount of pain medication I need, so I iften don’t take it.
I had the surgery yesterday and things seem to be going really well! I should be going home sometime today, I just need things like the drain to be taken out and I’ll be all set. Have had the pharmist come to see me with my medication.
I have to be at the hospital tomorrow at 8am and the surgery itself should only take 2 hours. I’m not sure when the surgery is due to start , (9amish?), as I do have yo check in and do the usual getting weighed and my height measured first of course.
I am quite anxious about it, but not as bad as before my operation last year! At least I’m not on a blood thinner this year and the operation isn’t as big as last years one was. Depending on how things go I should be out and back home either on Tuesday or Wednesday. (I am definitly spending the night in hospital tomorrow).
