Hello to all my lovely bloggy buddies...yes it's your bundle of golden deliciousness...not looking quite as gorgeous as usual but I've been through the wringer for the last few days...laid up in intensive care with the worst tummy upset ever and I want to squash any spurious rumours that may be doing the rounds...it's official...straight from the vet's mouth...it wasn't down to my scavenger habits but a super bug that I picked up somewhere. I had the nicest care team...the vet and my very own nurse were so kind to me giving me lots of snuggles when I was feeling lonely but they don't half love giving you a good old poke and prod...not to mention the indignity of having your temperature taken every few hours...I did suggest she could stick it under my leg but she was having none of it and I was definitely miffed when she shaved my gorgeous golden locks in several places...leaving me looking a bit patchy and to add insult to injury stabbed me with long pointy things...
But I'm feeling much better now...you just can't keep a good dog down and it's so good to be back home...I've handed in my sick note and will be taking some time off from my cubbyhole crew duties to rest and recuperate but I have a sneaky feeling I can kiss goodbye to anything in the way of pay for quite some time to come...the coffers are well and truly empty...the cupboard is bare...the old 5 star medical care wiped out the crafty stash purse and made a huge crater in the cubbyhole budget...oops might be an idea to keep a low profile for a while...head down and keep out of hot water.
I would like to send THE BIGGEST SNUGGLIEST HUG ever to each and every one of my lovely bloggy buddies and Facebook friends who kept Mum's spirits up and sent lovely messages and get well hugs. And a special big hug to my lovely bloggy bud Polly from Wales who's having her own tough time caring for her hubby after he fractured his pelvis and was kind enough of think of me and send this beautiful card.
No doubt I'll be hanging around the cubbyhole getting under my old Crafty Mum's feet and will see you all very soon.
Big Hugs & Furry Snuggles

Darling Buddy, it is so good to have you back! Even if you are feeling a bit worse for wear, you still look a big bundle of gorgeousness.
ReplyDeleteYour Mummy and Daddy will be so glad to have you back, you will be able to do 'no wrong' - at least for a fair while, so take every advantage while you can. (Tip - if you feel that they are starting to take you for granted, just roll on your back, groan a little, and roll your eyes - I bet that'll get 'em running!)(Don't tell them it was me that told you that)
Huge hugs,
Jennifer. x
P.S. Even my 2 furboys send their love, and they are CATS!
It's great to hear that you're back home with Mum and Dad for good,"hames aye best" as they say up here. I bet you can't take that smile off your Mams face just now, she's been so worried about you. Hopefully there will be a wee bit of sunshine for you to enjoy today, and no more super bugs.
ReplyDeleteLovely to see you back home Buddy. You rest up and you'll soon be back to your normal self. Hugs :)

Oh Buddy, you did give us all a fright! So glad to hear you are resting at home now and that you are on the mend.

I am so pleased that you are on the mend and I know that Mum won't really mind how much it cost. Sumo and Gaucho my two elderly dogs were beginning to go into a decline worrying about you.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to see Buddy back home. What a dreadfully worrying time it was for all concerned but he certainly did get the very best care going.
ReplyDeleteLots of snuggly hugs for a very brave boy and hoping you will be fit and raring to go very soon. Someone needs to keep an eye on the Missus!

Ah, happy day, Buddy - so good to see your back and haven't lost your sense of humour. Now you just take it easy and take as long as it takes to recuperate properly. Sorry to hear about the depleted crafty budget - but you're worth it :) Hugs and kisses, Elizabeth

So happy to see that Buddy is back home! Now for a speedy recovery so he can be up to his usual charming self soon!
ReplyDeleteDeniseB
Good to hear from you in your own words Buddy, well, your own woofs then! Don't worry about the cost, I'm sure your mum would have mortgaged the house to make you well again. Rest up and get better and you'll be back to bouncing around in no time. I'd advise your mum to enjoy this period of enforced quietness because it's not gonna last, is it!!!??
