My Newt is not so small any more, she’s positively chunky!

Enjoying the garden while it's cool, and playing fetch with the dogs instead of their walk, while my husband is in hospital. Waiting on his results after CT and lumbar puncture and several armfuls of antibiotics. Please take any outdoor cuts seriously and clean and dress them immediately! #NHS #Dogs

Morning! I'm hoping for good news from the hospital where my husband has suspected meningitis, he's feeling a lot better and wants to be home but his results haven't come back yet... I'm in the garden playing fetch with the dogs while it's cool enough. #NHS #Dogs #friday

Not a good week, my husband is in hospital with possible meningitis, my dogs have been walked twice since Saturday when they usually go out twice a day, and I'm stress eating which is playing havoc with my diabetes. I don't have the spoons for this! Cute animal pics please 💙 NHS #spoons #MS #NHS

I will mostly be on the sofa in front of a fan, as this weather badly affects my MS, but my son and his partner are picking up the keys for their new (rented) home in Birmingham tomorrow - they've been staying with us since May when their old lease ended - exciting times!

#goodnews #happyMonday my son and his partner have signed the contract on their new house rental in Birmingham, we will miss them but it marks the start of the next phase of their lives. Also, two friends have just been offered new jobs today. Have a picture of Parker - she is as crazy as she looks!

Here are mine, from l-r Sparky, Newt, Parker and Weaver. Sparky went over the rainbow bridge just after we got Parker, and the idea was to leave five years between dogs but we ended up getting Newt three years after Parker. Weaver is now our old lady at 10, Parker is nearly 5 and Newt 1.5.

I have three, they all like to be as close as possible - pic shows two of them, the third is black and a bit stout, she weighs a ton when she lies on me because she is terrified of any buzzing insect!

This is my son with his new puppy, the day she came home (I think). Not the most flattering photo, but the love he has for his pup shines through. She still likes to have her paw held four years later!

#Marillion Weekend Leicester: bring it on!! I love this band (and no, Fish is not still the lead singer, "new guy" Steve Hogarth has been with the band for nearly 40 years 😂)
