Well it's only been a few short days.. and already my good intentions have already flown out of the proverbial window. Yes yes I should have blogged... at least at some point over the weekend.. and I didn't.Well nothing overly exciting happened.. although the weekend did seem to pass remarkably quickly. I made a cheesecake.... which seemed far larger when I finished... than I had been expecting. I ended up giving a lot of it away to a friend. lol I watched "Anchorman" on DVD again inspired by having seen "40 year old Virgin" at the cinema a few days earlier. Having seen it .. I did consider chaging my MSM log in name to "Tits Magee".. but only very briefly ;-) If you like the Austin Powers films... then I would recommend Anchorman as something to look out for.

I have a Labrador... he's lovely .. I've had him for 12 years.. and has been with me through some of the most difficult periods of my life...for example....when I had the call at 5.am on a July morning 9 years ago, from the hospital to tell me my mother had passed away... I took him on a very long walk.. right through the woods on the other side of the village... it was great.. just to clear my head.. come to terms with things .. with Ruf bounding along beside me. Sadly after an operation last year to remove a few cancerous lumps.. he really slowed down ( mostly due to his age... 12 is old for a Lab)... he potters around in the garden... but gets tired very easily on walks... and ends up dragging his paws after only a few hundred meters... so I've stopped taking him. His health has really started to slip recently... but he seems very happy .. as always...but I guess it's dawning on me that he probably won't be with me for that much longer. An end of an era approaches.... and era that marked big turning points in my life... but all things come to an end. As long as he stays happy and pain free and loved.. then I guess that's the best anyone can do for him.
