Morning everyone,
sorry I've not been in these past few weeks properly. I've been logging on mfp but have had the week from hell last week and 2 of my dogs needed vets. I've been stuck indoors which has driven me crazy, oh had to work away so have been on my own coping with the dogs, the house and other stuff. It may not sound much but I'd got in to a lovely routine of getting out, exercising and generally being in a good place for it to all come to a sudden stop. He has one more week away and then hopefully I can get back to myself. I HATE BEING STUCK INDOORS but we have the dogs so can't leave for long periods incase they bark and don't stop for neighbours.
Luckily I work mostly from home so this has never been a problem before. Lacey had a couple of days to go before her pups were born but it didn't go well for her and the vet took her in for a c section, 1 pup was alive and well in there right up until they gave the oxytocin which I told them I didn't want for her since it's never brought on contractions but has ended up in stillborns for my poms. They know best though so one and only still born. Bless her coming home all stitched up with no pups.
My starsky had been down for a few weeks and just wasn't himself, wouldn't go for walks, couldn't pee properly and his stomach was distended and his gums were bleeding so in he went for an expensive X-ray to find out he has a swollen prostate (basically horny bugger) so even though everything I'd read online showed liver disease and I'd scared myself mental he is now fine on antibiotics.
Anyway I'm still alive and 9.12.4 today. Have been totm so possibly up a little because of that but I'm doing well on my calories and have behaved myself considerably considering being trapped in doors and not getting my walks and life in I have not succumbed to the angry, depressed food cravings. I've kept myself occupied and understood why I felt I could do with some extra food all week. Because I'm still an addict and when I'm trapped, bored, depressed or stressed I look for my old friend.....I didn't search long this time because it's now become my enemy but it's taken me over a year to realise that.
hope you are all keeping well?
