I can’t cope

I won’t but if it gets to outta control and I can’t cope I will tell you @tyme

That sounds amazing. I remember that day too. I was living and working on the coast and in my 20’s. The fear surrounding it like it could happen again anywhere at anytime.

That sounds so cool, to see them in person. I like sightseeing but I don’t go anywhere.

That’s awesome that she followed you. Technology has come so far. I love that she called everyday. The excitement will be something she will remember.

Was the beach in Florida as good as Aussie beaches?

I’m so glad you are getting the bed to yourself. It must be nice. So she is in her own bed school nights now? That gives you a break.

Yeah Pix has a sensitive stomach but I am changing up her food after she got sick to try and help with it. She is doing sort of ok.

This was screened at the memorial museum... it gave me shivers, yet it also shows the power of community coming together in times of crisis.

The beach I stayed at in Florida was a private beach owned by the resort. It was massive and lovely because there weren't that many people. They had a giant inflatable slide too lol. I went on it. It was good.

And yes, we were far away in distance, but technology meant she was in my pocket. She sleeps in her own bed. She's got a double bed and yes, she's in her bed on school nights. I can't have her with me.

Poor Pix. I hope her stomach is okay. Runny poos are horrible.

Wow….. that was amazing. @tyme. Ive never heard about that. That’s awe inspiring.

I love that you went on the slide! I would have too. A private beach sounds so quiet and relaxing. Sounds like a great trip. Did you learn lots as week?

She has had many butt washes! She knows when she needs a wash cause she runs and hides from me. I have to trick her to catch her.

It was a really great trip. Certainly so much to learn. Nothing like home though. The people over there would LOVE to come to Aust. @Captain24

Poor Pix... she sounds traumatised. Does she like baths in general? How do you 'trick' her?

So many people would love to come here @tyme. When I stayed with my host families in Spain and Ireland they wanted to come over but they all said it was too far. It’s a long way and expensive. They go for weekends away in another country. Not a whole weekend to get somewhere.

She’s a pain in the arse. She’s good once you get here in the bath but catching her is hell. I have to hide the fact that I’m getting the bath ready. When I sit on the lounge she wants to get up so I try that and grab her. If I’m sitting outside she comes for a pat so I have to snatch her up. She also likes to lay on my dirty clothes in my room so I try and grab her from there. Sometimes I have to give up and just wait for the right moment!

That's hectic @Captain24 !

You may need to put her on a leash and then get the bath ready. She's smart.

How's Jett going?

She is smart. @tyme. To smart for her own good.

Jetts just being Jett. He is so cute. He has to be near me at all times! Sometimes when I’m going to sleep we lay and look into each others eyes. He isn’t very smart though. He hates the bath but I bath Pix first and then give her a treat. Jett waits for his but I pick him up and put him in the bath. He hasn’t learnt yet and it’s been 18 months!

Too cute @Captain24 . Jett's a baby and always will be.

I'm wrapping up now, but I wanted to ask how your bday was? Did you end up getting food from your mum?

Yeah. They got me dim sims and curried prawns. @tyme. My day was ok. Work was a bit all over the place but it is what it is. Dad pasted on Facebook. ‘A few years ago a little ray of sunshine came into my life’ so that was nice.

Mum posted a cute photo of Pix and Jett. I’ll show you on Wednesday.

Have a good few days and I’ll see you during the week.

Awwww @Captain24 . Sooo cute. That's so lovely of your dad and mum.

I'll chat later this wk. Take care!
