The break from writing every night has allowed me time to finally hear the voice inside my own head.
That sounds a bit crazy but the silence inside my head is wonderful.
I’m so grateful that I have allowed myself the space to rest and reset.
It’s funny as I go to take a photo to share with you and then think I don’t actually have to do that.
I thought of you all when I saw my first daffodil of the year.
Her Travel Circle is growing from strength to strength. We now have 474 active members and 77 hosts across 5 continents. It’s keeping us both very busy.
So Craig is in Berlin this weekend on a solo trip and he is loving it. He’s taken to solo travel like a duck to water. I’m so proud of him. He’s taken lots of video for the Circle. It’s lovely to see him so excited and enjoying it as much as I do.
Unfortunately Freya has got sick while he’s been away and he’s saying he’s never going away again. 🙈
I took her to the vet on Friday as she has stomach pains and they gave her a steroid injection and a Buscopan cramps injection and she pepped right up.
She was fine all day yesterday. I met Gayle for lunch at Mocha Jaks and we had a great catch up…. And lunch!
Freya refused her dinner and I knew that was a sign that it wasn’t better.
She woke me at 1.30am and the bed was wet… it was blood.
I lifted her off the bed and got her outside, I cleaned her and got her settled again and called the emergency vet at 2.30am and woke him up…. She’s spotting blood all over the place.
At 9.30 they called back and I had an appointment for 10.30.
She’s a wee soul….
She got an ultrasound scan and she has a massive infection in her uterus. She needs a hysterectomy and all the infection to be removed. She’s booked in at 8.30am tomorrow.
She got an injection to fight the infection (yes the one that will be removed tomorrow!) and a second injection of Metacalm.
The wee scone is always happier outside and it suits me today. I’ve got black plastic bags over the dog beds to protect them.
We’ve got a traveller coming tonight or tomorrow and staying for the week. She knows what’s going on and that she’s still welcome. These things happen.
I am exhausted but my head is calm. I’m going back to bed for a bit.
It’s been so lovely to see some sunshine this week. ☀️☀️☀️
The lighter days are coming.
Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️
