....and the official working week is over....... and breath! that's 3 ZumbAtomic (kids zumbas) taught and 2 adult classes. as well as teaching and doing things around the house.i left this morning at 8am. i got home just after 5pm and went out again just after 6.15pm and came home at 8pm. i then put out all the rubbish (it's recycling day so there's 5 bags, 1 box and my bin). i then cooked tea whilst doing the dishwasher and the washing machine. now i'm on here!
emily is having issues! several issues. the first is that she either wets or stutters. over christmas, after it, her wetting stopped and her stuttering became really bad. it was like "ddddddddddddd da da da da da daddy!" i was told this might come back at christmas time due to the excitement for santa but it came afterwards. very strange. she's struggling at the minute too with being very tired. we get her up at 6.30am most week days (especially those that we work). she's so so tired and the problem is that she messing about at night and not going to sleep, going into the bathroom, messing about in her room etc. then when i pick her up she's falling asleep on the way to getting dude from nursery! argh! we are all tired really.
well, at least i get to take her to school tomorrow and pick her up at a reasonable time. i also get time to spend with my little guy after our hospital app. so plan of action tomorrow!
1) take ems to school
2) take dude to hospital (we'll be early but.... better that than not finding a parking spot)!
3) go buy emily another bottle with emily written on it as we've lost hers.
4) do the shopping - we do not need much at all. i'm tempted to just buy milk, salad and cheese.
5) visit my mum for a coffee
6) take matthew to tumble tots
7) relax at home for a while
8) go get emily
9) take her to tumble tots
10) get home (probably after 5pm) and cook tea
relax!

did all my jobs and phoned the vets. dude's app went well but we were kept waiting for 30mins as they were 2 staff down so double booked! we'll get another follow up in the post.
friday 13th.... forgot about that! oh well! just another day. been rushing around so much all day.
parents dog is getting on and it just escaped getting put down by the skin of its teeth at xmas. now there's blood in its urine. i think that this is it! dog down day!

the thing is their dog is almost blind, quite deaf, her back legs are going (she's had ligament problems and has been operated on in the past) and she is peeing and pooing on the carpet, no there's blood too. my dad has enough to cope with with my mum without this too. misty is 14 years old. that is old for a small pedigree. i'm half expecting her not to come home tomorrow i feel that i should be there too. my dad is going on his own.

Oh no, sadly I think think you're right about pups, it's a sad thing to have to do but sometimes it's for the best
Glad dude is healing nicely, bless him. Hope you have a nice relaxing weekend!!
they've given me some stuff to rub on his scar that's good for it and has antibacterial properties and will help to heal it beautifully. i waited half an hour over my app and was in and out
i didn't want my dad to be the one to make the decision as i know my mum will resent it. thing is.... if only it were legal for humans too!

misty dog is dead. the vet took bloods and her liver has deteriorated further. giving out more antibiotics would have been an option if it wouldn't make the liver worse.... but it would. it seems that there's something bigger than what the vet could feel going on in misty and so we made the call. i was there and held her, her heart stopped and i was left with misty for a little while. i held her until the vet came back which i was glad of because i didn't want to leave her alone but i also didn't want to feel her go cold. i'm trying hard not to show that i'm upset for my mum's sake but alone with little dude, at home, i'm very sad and upset and i think i could cry quite easily. my diet is far from my thoughts at the min as i'm quite stressed about it all. she's getting crem'd and my parents can then have the option of woodbox, cardboard box or scattering.

So, sorry Nikki -- but it is better than let the dog suffer. My uncle had his dog cremated and then he scatted the ashes along their favourite walk path. After he passed away -- he asked that his ashes be scattered there, too.

They bring us so much joy and companionship, but part of being a responsible pet owner is being able to do the best by them....even if it isnt the best by us?! Hugs to you all. X

not doing well. have eaten a few bits of cr*p. 4 shakes has turned into 2 with cheese, 4 chocolates, nuts and some alcohol to dull the pain. not good! i must get my head sorted. feel like cancelling my weigh in on monday having my birthday off (on tuesday) then starting again wednesday for next monday's weigh in. part of me just wants to battle on tomorrow and go to my weigh in on monday regardless of results.

don't think i've lost this week. i have today to try to do something positive in that direction! i've booked dude into the creche on monday and friday this week. i'm going to go every other monday to weigh in so that every other week i can do 2 hours at the gym and the other weeks it's just 1. i'm also going to look at booking creche on saturday for an hour too. creche for dude and dance for emily! i must start getting out running on sunday. so my week would look like this for exercise.
monday - gym 1hr one week 2 the next
tuesday - 2 ZA classes 1 zumba class
wednesday - nothing
thursday - 1 ZA class 1 zumba class
friday - 2 hours at the gym
saturday - 1 hr at the gym
sunday - 30 min run gradually increasing 2 mins a month.
monday - gym 1hr one week 2 the next

it's 4 weeks to valentines day. my plan is off by a good amount! not doing well at all this week. with bad dreams, doggie death etc. stressed to hell. so need focus and motivation from monday.
so 4 weeks to valentines day. how much could that be???? possibly 12lbs if i do 3lbs a week. so if i'm perfect i could almost be there. honestly i need a good kick up the butt!
i'm now thinking i need 810 plan in my head not ss+ as this is really not working at all. it's all mental! i could do it if i really focused, really focused! it would only be 1 more week of ss+ anyway!
i have 17lbs to go so 12lbs would be almost there. it would make a massive difference to me, i would look so much better. i could enjoy a nice meal that weekend.

You can only do what you can do -- just keep on doing your best. You are very good at getting the weight off, and know that you will do so (sooner or later). So, do whatever you think is workable with your current life situation (new job, etc.) and give yourself some credit for hanging in there during this week from H3LL.

you make me cry :cry: i know i can do this. each week i set off with good intensions but seem to fail badly! i'm not sure what to do next week to be honest. it's my birthday tuesday. do i celebrate it wednesday (have zumba tuesday) or not at all? i wasn't going to but i feel the need. then i get back on track and just focus to valentines day. do i just go through to valentines day and try to do 100% with full focus and heart so that i can enjoy being slimmer in feb and looking hot, go out for a meal at the weekend after it! not sure. with everything that's busily going on it's kind of hard.
