Rory just spontaneously emptied his anal glands on the sofa luckily I have the reflexes of a ninja and caught all the stuff in my hand. I was cooking Chris's tea at the time. He nearly fainted once I told him what I had just fielded and said I hope you are going to wash your hands. I told him no I was going to pick it off my fingers. He nearly fainted again.
What made you smile today?

It must be difficult not having sense of smell, mine used to be acute, but age is dimming itI can't smell it. No sense of smell
You wouldn't have liked the smell of anal glands! I used to love the smell of dogs' smelly ears!The scar on n my face is healing beautifully. The surgeon really did a great job. In 6 months or so I really think it will be hard to see. Only the one hand has been a problem I had to have a dig about and found a stitch which hadn't disolved properly. I pulled it out and it's healing properly now. It's got some funky plastics dressing on now so I think I'll be back at work next week. Just so happy with my pirate scar

If you're bothered, you could ask your doc for a prescription for some silicone sheeting to stick on it. Works great but it means walking around with a sheet of the stuff stuck to your face for a couple months. I think they now make some liquid that does something similar. I used to use the sheeting for scars and it works but after a certain number of scars you do kind of just shrug and go with the pirate scar look. Wear it proud, right?
I'm really not worried about it I've got some vitamin e cream recommended by some SCC people and I've seen the silicone stuff. They do allsorts of stuff now so I might try some of them but I do wonder if I will need it. He's hidden one side of the cut down the side of my nose which hides it and the cut along my cheek he's cut into the normal line of my face so that will fade. He really did a good job. I'm seeing them again in a few weeks so it will be checking work that's done and planning the next stageIf you're bothered, you could ask your doc for a prescription for some silicone sheeting to stick on it.

Trigger warning: dog abuse. Left outside in the cold (20C) for HOURS (5 minutes with a kibble scatter) with NO WAY of getting back in (except through the open door).
PS the door does move. Just fine.

The torture is real, @snowbunny . Don't you feel ashamed of yourself? 
I particularly like the Squidge barge. Reminds me of someone else.

I made contact yesterday with someone in the same stages of setting up her business as I am. I'm no good at that sort of thing either, but sometimes it's good to push yourself. It'll either work out great and you'll make a long-term relationship that benefits you all, or else you'll spend a little time together and go your separate ways. No harm, no foul. Good luck with it

I've found that I have had to do it a lot in recent years with Nathan going to Kinder and school and starting at sporting clubs.
Soooooo out of my comfort zone

It was my gorgeous step grand daughter's thirteenth birthday today. They had a smallish party yesterday afternoon/ early evening for friends her own age and grandmas, grandad, and auntie were invited for coffee and cake at 11.00 thismorning, dogs also welcome. It's a pleasant walk along the towpath for GGJ and me. We can stop off for a ball game in the field on the way there and a swim in the river (strictly on the way back, they have a CLEAN house!) So off we set ,it only takes about an hour and it was a beautiful sunny morning. Joy knew exactly where we were going and was most excited and SO happy to see everyone, but very good, no attempting to get on furniture, greeted everyone and did a lovely Settle when I asked her to..........then Donna, my older stepdaughter arrived, with her lovely dog Blossom, a rescued Lab cross. Joy adores Blossom. We used to go for walks together but Blossom is getting on a bit now and no longer up to the long walks, so we haven't seen her for a while. Both dogs were touchingly pleased to see each other, squeaking and nuzzling and then Joy got the Zoomies! However there wasn't a lot of space, the room being full of Aunties, Grandmas and what have you, all having coffee and cake, so being a Veryvery GoodGirl she did her best to do Sensible Zoomies! This involved the rolling of the eyes, the tucking under of the tail and whole back end and of course the zooming round in circles, but she was doing teeny tiny circles, so small that she would have been chasing her tail had it not been tucked well away. It was one of the funniest things I've ever seen and had us all laughing, whereupon she suddenly stopped, looked around her, had a good shake and laid carefully and deliberately down at my feet, as if to say 'Whoops! That was a bit embarrassing!' I'm still smiling now!
