Georg Philipp Telemann Thursday @ TDD - C&C

[Kittykatt]

Good morning / good afternoon, Helian and Laura!

Helian -sorry about the short night. I hope the meeting with your trainer is productive and you find your DMum responsive. Unfortunately, the vicar's email was indeed hacked, but he was already aware, and is making everyone else aware.

Laura, so glad you had plenty of snuggle time with Little J. The parade sounds lovely!

MQ was over at church early, so was.ablemto phone the vicar on his personal.phone, as it was still early. Then she left as she was expecting a delivery, but I was able to deal.with the lady from the College who had an inquiry about her church booking. The service itself was very thought provoking and helpful. Afterwards I made the coffee and cleaned up with DF PM 's help. MQ arrived in time to supervise the team from the College who came with decorations for their Awards Ceremony.

Jude was a little angel at the vet. Good news from her weight check, she has lost 100 g (4 Oz). Very good news from her dental check - jet teeth and gums are all very good. So, no dental work needed for her.

But , the head nurse came in to say that unfortunately their dental machine had just blown up (literally!) so they've had to reschedule Matilda's appointment to next Wednesday. (They will ring if it has to be postponed again). I'm actually slightly relieved, as it means I won't have such a rush tomorrow morning, and I can go out in the evening with a clear conscience, without worrying about leaving her, even with DF CW babysitting her for the evening.

The rain has stopped for now, but it's very muggy and thundery. My plan is to finish my cup of tea, then do a little in my front garden, and then clean the fridge. Anything else I can get done before Waitrose arrive will be a bonus.

[Kittykatt]

To do:

Appointments:
Thursday: DH WFH
10.30 am church

Phone call from vet at ?? regarding Matilda's upcoming dental surgery - postponed until next week
2 pm weight check with a vet nurse - Jude
2.30 pm dental check with a vet -Jude (I'm desperately hoping Jude's teeth and gums are fine, as I really don't want two cats recovering from surgery within days of each other!) All is well with Jude's teeth and gums, and she has lost 100g
6-7 pm Waitrose delivery
Matilda 's anti-inflammatory med
Laxapet -Jude and Matilda ( if we didn't do it yesterday)

Friday: DH WFH
leave the car at the church (MQ has given permission)
Walk across town to the health centre (much quicker than dealing with rush hour traffic, and parking there is hopeless anyway )

House tasks: Replace the bit of mortar that's fallen out of the edge of the roof (I think its called the verge? Can this wait until next year when we get the house painted when a roof ladder will be in place?)

Fix garage guttering that's loose at one end and bending down. Dneighbour R2 may fix?

Book eye test for me
Find picture hanging equipment for DH
Sort prints and put in albums (this will probably be an activity to do on wet days!) WIP I am now working on 2024
Think about setting up Guardianship for F,J and M - looked on Cats' Protection, I need their microchip numbers, approximate DOB, colour and markings and useful information about them. Bookmark link with local recommended solicitors (also ask DF CW?)

Good afternoon. I’ve piddled away most of my day and the rest doesn’t look promising. I’ll try though. Every little bit helps.

(((Gma, Tutsi, mom))), I’m so sorry for your rough day yesterday.

Trissie, thanks for getting us going. Are you a big fan of classical music or are you learning along with some of us?

Kittykatt, cheering for Jude’s visit going so well. Yikes on the dental machine exploding.
Dh has spells of organization and chaos, he comes from a family of hoarders but I was fooled into thinking otherwise bc his home when I met him was so neat and tidy. He has a roommate that probably deserves thanks for that. I have tried to help him with that, I was very organized when we met, but kids and his repeated stubbornness is definitely a challenge.

Helia, do you get souvenirs/collectables from all the places dh travels?

Laura, I suffered for years feeling bad if my house wasn’t perfect only to realize the mess doesn’t matter. Don’t be hard on yourself.

LAnn, I love a good market.

Hi Peaches.

Hello, L Ann, Peaches, Gma and Bama!

Bama, apparently the dental machine was 15 years old, and started acting up a bit yesterday, and evidently decided it had had enough today. Matilda's appointment may have to be rescheduled again if they can't get a new machine /new part (not sure which?) before Wednesday. We have enough anti inflammatory to last until Wednesday, so it's not really a problem (Matilda doesn't know what's going on) and the vet will prescribe some more if we have to wait longer. Can I ask whether you have ever tried cleaning any of your cats' teeth, and if so, how it worked out? The vet is very keen that we give teeth cleaning of some kind a go, especially with Matilda. I think there's some genetic component to this gingivitis, as Matilda and Jude are fed the same food, so it can't really be diet related. Also Jude is nearly 7 and has a full set of teeth, and Matilda isn't quite 4 and had 2 teeth extracted when she was around 18 months.

I had a spurt of energy, and now the fridge is cleaned out, the filters and spray arms on the dishwasher have been scrubbed, and I've rung the cleaning cycle on the washing machine. I still need to run the dishwasher's cleaning cycle, but I need it to be empty first! Everyone has been fed and Waitrose have delivered and the groceries unpacked and PA.

Going to write my list for tomorrow and then try for an early (ish!) night

[L.Ann]

Fresh peas and the first of the corn, Bama.
