I am in so much pain today :( Yesterday I went to the shop with “Willie” to pick up some more tiles as we decided to have the toilet done as well as our bathroom. You see, here in the Netherlands it’s not uncommon for the toilet to be totally seperate from the bathing/showering area. So in our flat we …

Today I had Bailey out for his morning walk when this lady came along with some big yellowish dog. Not a lab or retriever but some other biggish dog who’s breed I couldn’t even take a guess at. Anyhow, as usual the two dogs were straining to get near each other and I figured Bailey would be his usual playful …

Today is Bailey’s birthday, he’s two! Three sleeps until I turn 30.. only three days left of my twenties. I hope to god my thirties don’t go by as quickly! Seven sleeps until Xander and I have been married for 5 years. We don’t have any big plans for any of these occasions. For our anniversary we already bought tickets …

Yesterday our speed was cut by our ISP (Chello). When I spoke to them on the 9th the guy I was speaking with told me that if I called back if we were cut off, that it could be reset. I phoned yesterday and got this guy, and I told him what the guy before him said. His response was …

My baby is sick and I don’t know why! Last night Xander and I were watching TV and Bailey threw up near our feet. When we got up to clean it we found 3-4 other piles of vomit. He threw up a few times after that and again during the night in his bed (and on ours, ugh!). I was …

The timed cat feeder didn’t work, feeding them a little before we went to bed didn’t work.. We’re still being woken up all night by our cats and I honestly have no idea what to do. They are my responsibility, I love them.. but they are making us both crazy. I know I’ll probably just continue to suffer because I …

This is Gus and Ike, the dogs I’m petsitting this weekend while their owners are in London. They are Basenjis which is a breed that originates in Africa. They are so sweet and easy to care for, I really love being here with them. The thing I find most strange about them is that they never bark. They are actually …

I really need to get a new memory or start writing things down. Every day I see/hear/read/think things and think oh I must write about this in my blog. Of course once blog time comes around the memories of these things are nowhere to be found.Oh, Oh! I remember one!! Ok, I got another good blast of “You never REALLY …

I’m MOLTING! Yeah, pretty gross pic, huh? Gross to you I mean, it’s me doing it so I’m not really fussed. Am I the only one who can’t stop from peeling myself after a sunburn? I guess it’s probably one of those things like popping zits or sticking your fingers in places and then sniffing them. You know, things most …

Yay it’s Friday! Truth be told, I only said that because everyone else does. Friday really isn’t any different than any other day for me now that I’m not working. I would say it’s because I’ll have Xander home on the weekend but that’s not really true either, he’s working from home yesterday, today and Monday. I love his job, …

Well I’m back in Holland.. have been jetlagged as hell and woke up this morning to about 5 blobs of cat puke around the house. LOVELY!! After being at my parent’s house where everything is soooo clean and sooo nice, I’m fucking disgusted coming back to this house. No matter what I do, there is cat hair everywhere.. no matter …
