I’m tired. I have loved having Bd but the early starts have started to wear me out, especially as I want to spend every moment I can with him so I haven’t been going to bed as early as I should. I have also had to factor in time with Poppy, half an hour a day with her isn’t enough but this week I’ve been struggling to find any more spare time to give her. And don’t forget that for the half hour I am cuddling her, Bd is locked in the house by himself. I feel guilty, when I am with one as part of me is overly aware that I am not with the other!
However, I have muddled through the best I can. And I have loved every minute. I hate that he has gone back today!
It all happened at the wrong time of course, it always does. Poppy wasn’t suppose to arrive only a few days before I had Bd for a week and a half. She was supposed to come in January, so I would be into a routine with her before figuring out how to look after them. So that I could easily get her to the vets for a check up, have all the right stuff for her so she could get out of her too small cage. But as with all best laid plans… Things will start improving for her now though. She is going to come in to the house on an evening – I don’t have a run, but she needs out the hutch – and we have a 9am appointment with the vet on Saturday so I can get her checked over and her nails trimmed.
And it’s not just been getting used to a having Poppy and Bd that I have been challenged with. Just to add another layer of general stress to the mix, I have ended up changing jobs this week. New hours, longer commute, a whole new challenge work wise (I am worried that are going to regret headhunting me. Yes, take a second for a small victory dance I was head hunted!!) So add new job stress to early start, late evenings and trying to find more hours in the day and you will see why this post is quite so bad!
I don’t know what is going to happen to this space. I used to write on my lunch break, but I am not sure yet if this will happened at my new place. I know that I am not going to stop writing, it helps me process things and you guys are just way to awesome to loose. But I may post less. Quality not quantity right?
As soon as I know what is going on, I will let you know. In the meantime I am thinking of you all

Thank you. It has been a long overdue change, my last place was getting pretty awful.
Big hugs
Thank you!
Sounds like you need to take a break and no worries we see you when we see you. Try to fit in some me time. Have a tremendous Thursday.
Best wishes Molly
Thanks guys. I will pop in whenever I can, and when I am in my new routine I am hoping to become much more regular again… if I have anything interesting to share obviously! ;0)
I’m looking forward to hearing about the new job.
Thanks. It is going ok, lots to learn so I am at that stage of asking lots of questions and trying a bit too hard to fit in. I am looking forward to being 6 months down the line when I know what I am doing and can just get on with it!
