The Wednesday Wag on Thursday.
I went for my much needed Spa Day today!!! Mom has been calling me a fluffykins as I have been really, really wooly. In fact I have not had a cut since before Christmas!!!!
Here I am before I set out. Mom has been brushing me even more than normal to keep the fluff down!!!
Here I am back home! Mom says we have half a dog now after all the fluff has gone!!!!
I am sorry for appearing nude in the pictures but my collar is being washed, along with all my beds and my soft toys!!! Mom was going to also wash the actual baskets but the weather has turned cooler, of course, and they need to be done on a warm sunny day!!! I am sure she will get around to it soon.
I feel so much better and a lot cooler even though it is not as hot as it has been the last few weeks. In fact Mom thought I had actually put on some weight but it just turned out to be fluff!!!!!
I hope you are having a terrific Thursday.
Woofy Hugs, Treacle xx
Shortages.
So Week 11 of Lockdown and slow easing of certain things, despite our Supermarkets saying that there is now no problem with their supply chains, there is no flour of any description available!!! It is, they say, because everyone has been buying flour at the start of Lockdown for baking and the flour mills cannot keep up with the demand. Surely after eleven weeks now things should have gotten a little easier? Anyway I have managed to find, on line, a supplier who has plenty of flour and it should be arriving tomorrow.
Which brings me to the second supply issue, lack of eggs! Are the chickens in Lockdown? Are they social distancing so not laying? Really!!!! I managed to buy twenty four eggs last week which will be okay for a bit but I usually buy that amount every week for cooking/baking etc. Good Grief Charlie Brown!!!!
Eldest has heard that he is back at work from Thursday of this week, yeah. Although I am going to miss him terribly as he has been at home for 24 weeks since he dislocated his shoulder and was just due to go back as Lockdown happened!!!! I always used to feel like this when the Boys went back to school after the summer holidays. Anyway he is so pleased. However Youngest will not be happy as he has not heard anything yet!!!! Swings & Roundabouts!!!
Our nice sunny weather is due to break tomorrow with rain and cooler temperatures which is just as I told it would be as Treacle goes to her spa on Thursday!!! It is not due to rain on Thursday which is a good thing as we are eating outside with the Boys and their girls, we will be wrapped up though. Hopefully the sunny weather will return soon.
Happy Tuesday All.

June!
Goodness me it is June!!! Five months gone and what months!!! It is still quite worrying as no one seems to know how things will go from now on, it is all guess work and we have to assess our own risks. Our Boys are still waiting to hear about going back to work and DH is still working, but obviously it is a lot quieter than normal. I think we have to take each day as it comes.
The weather over the weekend was very sunny and warm and we got a few jobs done inside and out. Now we have finished all the big jobs we only have bits and pieces to do. I got quite a bit done on Eldest’s memory books.
We had a lovely meal on Friday with Eldest and Finacé outside and despite all good intentions of taking pictures, I forgot!!!! We are hoping on Thursday evening to have a meal with all of us, again outside!!! This will be the first time in three months we will all have been together, it will be so nice. Treacle is off to her spa on Thursday as well so she will look all clean and tidy!!!
This is her new spot under the table and bench when it is warm!!! As you can see she is very fluffy at the moment.
I keep brushing her to try and keep her woolly coat clean but every time she goes outside she comes back with half the garden in her coat!!!! Our floors look more like woodland floors with all the bits!!!! I will be glad when she is cut but of course the weather is set to be a little cooler after Thursday!!!! Of course!!!
My good friend Jayne it is her Birthday a week before mine. We usually go out for lunch or shopping for the day but I don’t think that is going to happen this year!!! Perhaps we should arrange to go out for a picnic far from anyone else!!!
I hope you all had a lovely weekend and will have a great week, whatever you are up to. Stay safe.
Hugs & Love Susie xx
