Aww puppy! What kind? Not that I really know much about dogs.

I think you do feel like you get more air when you have more room to walk.

Has Storm Ashley been causing problems for anyone? It was bad here this morning then eased off but it's picking up again now.

Cacoethes 20-10-2024 06:31 PM

Can't remember the exact breed, but she looks like a German shepherd puppy!

Its been windy and rainy here today! Not nice, but not horrendous so far!

tamobhuuta 20-10-2024 06:42 PM

Apparently it tipped it down this morning (while I was firmly in bed) but this afternoon it's just been a bit rainy and windy on and off.

one_step_closer 20-10-2024 06:52 PM

What age were your fluffies when you got them, Beckie? Have they grown? Have they stopped growing?

Best to be in bed when it's pouring down, Tamo.

Cacoethes 20-10-2024 06:55 PM

They were 7 months when I got them! They have grown a bit! I don't think they'll grow anymore. They're already chonky boys!

I like being in bed when it's raining!

one_step_closer 20-10-2024 06:59 PM

What age are they now?

I like hearing stormy weather in bed but not hearing my bins being blown over and the rubbish going everywhere!

Cacoethes 20-10-2024 07:03 PM

They'll be 3 in April!

Well yes, that is very annoying!!

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 07:48 AM

Morning everyone

tamobhuuta 21-10-2024 09:43 AM

Morning Cacoethes how are you?

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 09:48 AM

Morning tamo
I'm surviving!

How're you?

one_step_closer 21-10-2024 12:22 PM

Afternoon everyone.

I'm glad you're at least surviving Beckie but hope you feel like you're more than surviving soon.

How are you, Tamo?

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 12:30 PM

Thanks lindsay :)

How're you doing?

tamobhuuta 21-10-2024 12:46 PM

Gentle healing hugs for Cacoethes.

Hi osc, how are you?

I am ok, saw Dad this morning, going on leave at 3.

long road 21-10-2024 12:54 PM

Realised I haven't been around much, been finding things hard. Won't be on long as have therapy in 20 minutes. Sending love to you all!

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 12:55 PM

Thanks tamo
Hope you enjoy your leave!

Hi Jen!
Sorry to hear you're finding things hard. Hopefully therapy will be helpful

tamobhuuta 21-10-2024 12:57 PM

Hi lr, good to see you :) hope therapy goes well.

not_so_insig 21-10-2024 03:03 PM

Afternoon all. I have had my tesco shopping order. Only 1 substitution and 1 unavailable item. Knackered now so am having a rest before tackling putting the shopping away. Had a few more things than usual so will take a while. It certainly took ages to take the stuff out of the crates.

tamobhuuta 21-10-2024 03:23 PM

Rest is good :)

not_so_insig 21-10-2024 04:08 PM

Thanks tamobhuuta. I have now put the majority of my shopping away. Had some coconut water which was disgusting :-( . I can still taste it now.

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 04:14 PM

Afternoon everyone

not_so_insig 21-10-2024 04:16 PM

How are you Beckie?

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 04:28 PM

Alive XD
Thanks for asking :)

How are you?

not_so_insig 21-10-2024 04:52 PM

I am ok now I have had my rest. Gonna tidy up later. Woke up with cold type symptoms but am ok now.

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 04:54 PM

That time of year with things going around I think

not_so_insig 21-10-2024 04:58 PM

I had a good soaking on Wednesday so I wouldn't be surprised if I caught a cold. Even my bra was wet.

one_step_closer 21-10-2024 05:24 PM

How was leave, Tamo? I hope it went ok.

Hope therapy was helpful, Jen and you are taking care of yourself.

I agree that coconut water is disgusting.

Ahimsa 21-10-2024 05:33 PM

Also agreeing that coconut water is gross.

not_so_insig 21-10-2024 05:43 PM

Thankfully I only had a standard can of it and even then some of it went down the sink. Thank goodness I didn't buy a lot of it. I certainly won't be buying any more of the coconut water.

one_step_closer 21-10-2024 05:44 PM

Coconut is good though.

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 05:50 PM

Don't think I've ever tried coconut water tbh

Ahimsa 21-10-2024 05:51 PM

hmmm also a no from me.

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 05:56 PM

I do like coconut in things

long road 21-10-2024 06:07 PM

Therapy was ok still early days, it absolutely exhausted me this week so had a nap afterwards. Mind you I think I am coming down with a cold or something which won't help.

Not a fan of coconut water either. And not a big fan of the texture of dessicated coconut. Do like the flavour of coconut though.

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 06:09 PM

Glad it was ok jen.
Colds are awful. Lot of it going around

one_step_closer 21-10-2024 06:13 PM

Glad therapy was ok, Jen. Oh no, you can't be doing with getting a cold!

Beckie, don't ever try coconut water!

Do you not even like the scent of coconut, Beth?

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 06:20 PM

Don't plan on it!
Especially now!

one_step_closer 21-10-2024 06:23 PM

I once bought an actual coconut but it had a line round it that was supposed to make it easier to open but it didn't. I chopped at it and all the water inside was coming out and making a mess but for some reason I didn't think to drain it before continuing. Then I couldn't get the coconut flesh out the shell!

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 06:26 PM

I smashed a coconut with a hammer trying to get into it.
Idk what I hoped to achieve. I was rather drunk XD

long road 21-10-2024 06:55 PM

My Dad used to use a hacksaw to get into coconuts we won at the fair XD

The cold or whatever it is appears to be triggering my asthma which is extra rude of it. Colds are annoying enough on their own without asthma joining in!

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 07:06 PM

Well, if it works, it works! XD

oh noo. That's not what you want

long road 21-10-2024 07:17 PM

It worked. Eventually... XD

It is categorically the opposite of what I want. Just used my nebuliser and it seems to have helped but I reckon I will be calling the GP surgery tomorrow morning

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 07:24 PM

At least you have a decent GP!

long road 21-10-2024 07:28 PM

Very true! Both my named GP and the nurse practioner who knows my lungs work on Tuesdays. So hopefully should be able to see one of them. If I explain it's my asthma I will get a triage call and then likely a face to face appointment when they have triaged me.

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 07:30 PM

Fingers crossed!
I also have a GP appointment tomorrow.

long road 21-10-2024 07:35 PM

Hope your appointment is helpful!

I am about to have dinner. Nothing fancy just beige (fishcake, wedges and beans)

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 07:37 PM

Thank you!

L is cleaning out the piggos and we're having salmon, mash and veg.

long road 21-10-2024 07:39 PM

Salmon is my favourite fish!

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 07:41 PM

Me too!
We're also having Krispy Kreme doughnuts.
I ordered them for L to say thank you for looking after me and S so well

long road 21-10-2024 07:43 PM

Ooh tasty treat! What flavour doughnuts?

Also what a sweet gesture <3

Cacoethes 21-10-2024 07:52 PM

Got 4 different flavours! Got a dozen.
I think they were biscoff, strawberry sundae, blueberry and I think original glazed.

I am not sweet! I am darkness! XD
But yes, she deserves some recognition. She takes such good care of us both <3
