Hello everyone,
Two nights running without any problems...AOL must be doing something right! It seemed to be a pretty ordinary Thursday for me, up at the crack of dawn, in Tesco`s at 7.45am. Everything was going really smoothly until about halfway around Tesco I ran the trolley over two of my toes, not deliberately of course! I was in so much pain I felt sick and couldn`t breathe properly for a moment. Of course when you are in a public place the last thing you can do is scream and how I didn`t I have no idea. I had to stand still until the pain had eased and then I hobbled around the store to finish the shopping, at the same time being very careful where I put my feet. One of my toes is badly bruised and it is very tender so I shall be very careful in future.
After shopping I took Jake for a walk and decided to take him to the vet to see if he`d lost any weight. It turned out that he`d lost 2 kilos, about 4 and a quarter pounds and I don`t think he needs to lose anymore. In actual fact, I didn`t think he needed to lose any at all but the vet said he was slightly overweight so I reduced his food a bit. He didn`t need his exercise increased because he gets plenty of it and because he has mild hip displasia it could be bad for him. When we got home I made myself a coffee and Jake lay down at my side. Suddenly there was a noise in the garden and Jake dived under my chair for safety. The noise turned out to be a bucket that overturned in a gust of wind...hmmm, good job we didn`t have an intruder with my scaredy-cat pooch...lol!
Yesterday Jim brought a bag of toys and books home for Roman. They belonged to my SIL`s grandchildren and were in perfect condition. The books are really good ones and Kerry was really pleased with them. One of the toys, a Winnie the Pooh ball was chewed to bits by Jake after Roman dropped it on the floor while we weren`t watching. Jake must have seen it fall and took it outside on the lawn where I caught him red-pawed with his ill-gotten gains. He was in disgrace for at least 10 minutes...lol!
I didn`t mention yesterday when I was having my moan about AOL but all my favourites on my tool bar had disappeared when I was having the problems. I only noticed when I went to open my journal and found the link was no longer there....it`s all very odd. Now I`ve had to go looking for the sites that I had there and put them back again. Right, that`s it from me tonight but I have a few funny kids jokes to share with you. They are all very silly but that`s the point really! Have a lovely evening, take care and Bye Bye for now. :o)

Oh your poor toes ,I hope they are OK now ,I thought you was going to tell us Mr Rat had appeared,lovely some more new toys for Roman ,and Jake lol .....Jan xx
Ouch! your toes must still be hurting. Poor Jake having to go on a diet. I am so sorry about his hip. Bet Roman will lose a few more toys to the toy snatcher LOL. That is bad losing your favorites. Maybe I should hit the back up tab on mine because I have several different folders I would hate to lose. That is if that option is still available to do that. Hugs,Helen
Good Day! I love your graphic this morning! So pretty and cheerful! I'm sorry about your toes. I hope you didn't break either of them. Can you wear closed shoes? So Jake is as fit as a fiddle? Well good for him! I bet he's so handsome with his new weight. Psssst........we won't tell anyone about his dive under your chair. Wouldn't want it getting out that he was a bit of a scardy cat. LOL Kathy
Oh your poor toes, know what it is like.....3 on my right foot got broken and the pain was awful....I did not yell either and I was in the house!!! Lol at Jake, Sam would have done exactly the same!!! luv Joanx
I hope your poor toes feel better soon!
~~Kath~~
Oh no, your poor toes! Hope they aren't too sore now. Ironically, I stumped one of my toes today on one of Will's toys he did not put away...ouch! So nice to have the toys and books passed down to Roman...he will really enjoy them. Great Jake lost his weight....good job Jake! Funny about him hiding under the chair...poor guy...he hates those sudden noises. I bet push come to shove he would protect you had it been an intruder...have a great Friday and enjoy your weekend...hugs and love,
Joyce

Hey Sandra, just found your journal. What graphics!!!!! I wished I could figure all this journal stuff out. Sometimes I am able to get a picture on my journal, then in a day or so, its gone. I don't know what I am doing wrong. Any advice? Thanks, your journal is so interesting. I love find jlanders that are in other countries. I live in Virginia in the United States.
God Bless, Liz

Sandra couldn't you have screamed, blaming your "run over foot" on some nearby shopper? Poor Jake, it seems he's frequently in trouble, he just wants his share of Roman's toys. Linda in WA
Your poor toes bet that really hurt. Don't know what it is about toes but they are so fragile the same with heels. So glad you have your big dog to protect you from bad things. Love Joan.
Oh Sandra how painful to run over your own toes ~ those trollies can be very dangerous ~ Well done on Jake's weight loss ~ 2 kilos is good ~ laughed at Jake hiding under your chair ~ and how nice Roman was sent books and toys ~ I expect Jake thought Roman had dropped the ball on the floor for him lol ~ loved the funny kids jokes ~ Ally
Ouch at the toes. Remember I cut mine on some glass a few weeks back, only recently stopped hurting. Lol at Jake and the bucket and Jake and the ball. He certainly is a real character. Lol at the silly jokes, still brightened my day.

Hope your toes are OK now. Haven't seen any photos lately. How are Kerry & Roman? How is your garden faring? Have a good week.

I would have jolly well had a good yell! I once broke a couple of toes but this was by kicking the leg of my 'perching stool'. I will just say that I did not hold back, the air turned blue and the dog hid behind the settee! - love, Angie, xx
