COLD DARK ROOM

[johnandjade]

soo a while back I commissioned an austrlian artist to paint me a picture of a kangaroo...

about a month ago he sent me an email with a proof sketch and it was just bloomin' awful.. so I replied with a list of things I would like altered. due to lack of response I decided to call him up last night and asked....

'didgeridoo it yet'

good morning joes mum! if your shower is electric then it should be on a cold feed and should still work?
remember to feed bob the builder tea and cakes, he'll do a better job lol

Sadly the shower is not electric.

He arrived at 8am on the dot and appears to be covering the carpets in some sort of cling film dust sheet. He has already been introduced to the kettle, tea and the fridge so he can help himself to as much as he needs.

@Gillian Moore
@Lyn W
Neither of you said goodnight tonight.
I am now going to cry and get you to beat up the other in the morning.

Apologies Adam it was so quiet here last night I fell asleep and woke up on my sofa in the early hours of the morning.
My laptop had also gone to sleep so I crawled up to bed.
There, there I will say 2 goodnights tonight.

Good morning

Morning Ed.
I'm not going to ask how you are because I know.
But hope things are getting a little easier.

Morning john and Lyn.
I'm doing better than I imagined that I would. I'm not sure why Chester dying hasn't sent me into the funk that I thought it would have. I'm just trying to remember the happy 15 years and trying to get the vision of him lying there dead out of my mind.
he's been cremated and I should be able to get him tomorrow.

Maybe the thought that he isn't suffering and is at peace now helps, Ed.
I had to make the horrible decision to have a perfectly healthy dog euthanized once.
A beautiful golden cocker spaniel that had been tied up in a corner of someone's garage for years.
She was very damaged and would suddenly turn from a friendly fun dog into a monster.
She would take over areas of the house and god help anyone who tried to go past her.
She wouldn't even let me get back in my car once when I took her out.
It broke my heart but it was too risky to let her go on taking chunks out of me or anyone else.
Her years of neglect out weighed my trying to give her love and attention.

Thanks.
Only a dog person would understand the connection.

I would love a dog but have never wanted to leave one shut all day in while I'm at work.
Maybe when I finish I will go for it but now I have Lola - who was completely unplanned - not sure I have room for the 2 of them.

 

[Lyn W]

Good night and good-bye for most of the week.
I head out early tomorrow morning and won't be back til Friday night. I mostly just lurk around and "like" things when I'm away for the week because I never get the most reliable Internet connections there and I only have my cell phone, not my laptop.
Catch yall later!!!

Have a good week, Bea!

Chester was also unplanned.
I've always hated Chihuahuas. Noisy and small. Not for big guys.
One day a woman came into the small motorcycle repair shop that I worked at part time with two flea covered and trembling babies. One of them seemed to really like me and i really liked him. So I took him. Free.
We went to the vet the next day and got him all fixed up.
We were together every day after that. He used to sleep inside my shirt while I watched T.V. etc. (He was always cold.)
He never seemed like a pet. He was a family member.

They always look cold, think it's the lack of fur. They also shiver when they're excited or nervous don't they.
One of my sisters used to have a Yorkshire terrier - I've seen bigger rats -could fit in a pint pot when a pup but she was a cute thing

 

[Lyn W]

Somebody should give her a real roasting.

Was that deliberate ?
Very serious incident - but that made me smile.

Guys, my birthday is coming up soon and I think I know what I might ask for....

A hamster

Don't get two. You'll end up with 60 of them.
One is a nice pet. My step daughter had them.
keep in mind that they only live about three years. Buy a young one.

Have a nice day. I've got to get to work.

 

[Lyn W]

Righto, if someone brings one along.
Looks like a jellyfish.
Quite pretty, actually.

Maybe we could use a jelly fish instead - we'd know who caught it by the scream after they'd been stung.

See you later Ed, have a good day.
