Waiting to hear from the dog-sitter

Molly, people say dogs take after their owners so you are painting a good picture there.

Mine was 7 when I got her. All bad habits already in place, but she has mellowed under my benign influence

Waiting to hear from the dog-sitter

Yes, she quite likes you. No accounting for tastes

Pedal you have changed profile pic 4 times in this blog, I'm getting confused. As I type this, you are a cat or kitten - cute, anyway. No idea what you will be by the time I hit the Post Comment button.

Ha, Z, that air of pained disapproval? The underbite? The blood on the muzzle? All traits of the more alarming mother-in-law.

Hang on, wait just a minute. I'M a mother-in-law! (And yup, she bit him too, but almost a nibble. She likes him.)

Yup no way you could do the kennels thing either.

She'll be closer than velcro when you get back but long run, it will be the best thing that she gets used to you vanishing occasionally.

Friend of mine has a Yorkie that hides under her pillow and howls from the time she leaves the house to the time she gets back. But Yorkies apparently are a little prone to stuff like that.

Ohhh

She is going to hate your going away. But when you return - she'll realize you always will. Did work that way with mine. She even stopped biting me.

That was a joke, she only bit me once, we had words, never happened again

Molly, yay, official adoption! The shelter waived the trial period because she was down in Cornwall and was moving to Scotland.

16 hours it took to drive up. She barked
the
whole
way
she insisted she needed the loo
the
whole
way
she flung herself to the limit of her safely belt
the
whole
way

She's not a good passenger.

I'm truly sorry to do this but I am going to delete that comment because that picture is awful. Do feel free to post on the blog, it is the picture, not the comment, that I am deleting, it is making me feel ill.

Cal, I don't think that's him on the bike

RE: "BUT..IN THE END"

Nam, I don't paint it daily. That's the point. I probably should.

Oh, hang on, reading the rest, I don't think you're talking to me at all. Sorry. as you were.

Waiting to hear from the dog-sitter

Haha Pedal see you found your perfect match

Waiting to hear from the dog-sitter

Aw, Cal, that's gorgeous! I was going to ask what you do when you go away but of course you have family at home to keep up the routine

Waiting to hear from the dog-sitter

Okay, that was scary, where's Pedal and what have you done with him?

Waiting to hear from the dog-sitter

The dog or me?

The camera suddenly loved me on Wednesday, I took about 12 selfies and only had to delete 4 We are back to our usual hate-hate relationship again, though. In other words pics look like me again.

I'm just blogging to waste time while I wait to hear back. We can talk of other things.

Waiting to hear from the dog-sitter

Oh I know you're struggling to think of something polite to say. But she has a lovely personality.

Okay she doesn't. But my cousin works for the dog shelter and asked me to take her because she was difficult to place. She hates dogs, children, and anyone who needs a walking stick. Oh, and skateboards, postmen, anyone who points and laughs, and, okay, the whole world. But she doesn't mind cats. I had a cat, no other dogs, no children, no-one in my life on a walking stick, never ride a skateboard, and was, my cousin said, perfect for her.

RE: Taking Virtual blogging into Reality

Heading to bed, 2B? Er - you have visitors on the way -

RE: We have five senses

Taste.

Unless there was a delicious dinner for the start of the romantic evening. Phew. Dilemma.

But few people taste delicious raw.

RE: Reasons you reject someone

Reject, hmm. I am interested in most people, but I do lose interest when they say something that proves their minds are set in stone, filled with mud or slime or grime, or they are completely selfish and out for number one at whatever cost to others.

Until then, I enjoy talking to all ages, all types, all persuasions, no matter what race, religion or creed.

Although I do find politics boring

RE: Astronauts back on earth again today

All this time on CS and you don't know how to load photos yet? Why, I learned that WEEKS ago. (Yup, after nearly 2 years )

RE: Women - know your limits.

One or two passing references to Scotland ...

RE: From War to Peace..a mind and body journey

Like it, Map. Very much.

RE: Women - know your limits.

Ha, never seen these before. What a very sensible chap he seems!

Er, Z, any chance you could take them down before Chrome pops in?

RE: what women need to get ready....

GJ, the results are worth it

RE: Washing clothes

Genius!

That's that logical thinking men are so good at, right?

RE: You Already Have It All!

I like being a woman but I'll be honest, I'd love to be a bloke for about a week a year. Just to see how the other half lives

I would be a very bad lad, too. My favourite type!

RE: what women need to get ready....

Yup, Call's right. And that's impressively tidy, as well.

I can get out the door for work without slap because I am fortunately employed for my stupendous brain rather than my fabulous albeit mature looks, but a date? Takes me half an hour just to give myself an estimate for the plastering and paintwork.

RE: ANYONE OUT THERE ???

Put up the other pic. People want to feel energised, not depressed, when looking for someone.

RE: Los Apodos of Your Childhood!!

2B I was also Skinny Malinky!

Gee that was a long time - and a couple of dress sizes - ago.

Now I am Biff to nearly everyone, although one friend made it Teasabiff, then shortened it to Teasey.

Leap year, baby! part 2

So generally looks like I struck out for the next 4 years, because although I did get one private message saying yes, I suspect it was not entirely genuine

Chrome's private reply was a hoot but not to be published

Another message was rather nice and held out some hope if I could just be patient. Not an option but hey, better luck next time. I want it all, and I want it now.

This was FUN, and it's been a fun day. For those women everywhere who made serious proposals and got accepted, live long and prosper, and may you always be as happy as you are today.
