Mandy I adore your posts!

I talk to my Pup too all the time and the "with Me" story had my LOL as my pup is 7months & that's exactly what we say to get him to walk..years ago it was called "heal" 🤣

Go for the Tattoo...I'm needle phobic I got my first tattoo 3yrs ago I now have 3 and going for my fourth next week....lol This will be the First place I've been since covid...I've not even been in a supermarket as I'm so vulnerable. This tattoo is my 40th birthday present 🎁🤪.

Can't wait to read your next installment xx

Thank you darling. I'm envious of your pup - it's the best age! How brilliant to do that for your 40th - what are you going for?? ...very tempted but I'm so indecisive about what to get! Plus I'm a chicken. Take care please Xxx

He is certainly keeping us on our toes lol. I'm having a Lion and flowers & possibly a butterfly, to represent my disability and all I've been through. Courage & strength for the lion (and I'm a Leo 🙊) the flowers to represent nature when I'm having down days my rheumatologist tells me to visit the outdoors as it helps and it does. The butterfly as when my old fur baby was really sick we kept seeing butterflies and one landed on he's nose and he got better. All of my tattoos have a meaning but I will next time go for an impulsive one lol

Thank you Mandy 🥰 you take care too xx

Sometimes Sharon I think the most wisdom comes from within!!!! Plus as Ritu says further up the page, very often i'm talking to the family and i may as well be talking to myself... Sending you love Xxx

Mandy, I don't often talk to myself, but to be honest, it feels like I am, when I am trying to converse with the family, and they aren't listening, so I might as well be. I mean, I know I do go on a bit, sometimes...!😜

I often think of getting a tattoo, but I have no idea what, or where!

Love these posts. Really brighten my day. I too would love a tattoo but don’t like needles or pain so probably won’t 😊

I got my first tattoo this year after spending years being terrified of needles but I got talk into it by a close friend and I now want more I have 3 Mickey and Minnie heads on my wrist with stars and hearts to symbolise my little family !

I talk to myself like you all the time !! At work I’m constantly getting asked if I was speaking to my colleagues or not !

I also speak to my dog and I swear in my little town they must think I’ve gone crazy as I chat away to him as we walk usually calling him some name because he is being a bit of a idiot but I do love him dearly and I swear one day he will turn round and tell me to shut up and stop worrying !!

I hope you have a lovely weekend and look forward to your next post

P.s don’t take the brie off the shopping list it’s the best cheese !!!

You are most welcome lovely lady and yes, she really did dump in her sleeping bag... in fairness, it was a long, long walk to the latrine in the dark, but ye gods!!!!!
