A very belated post...

I was very remiss because I am so very busy at work. I didn't post for international box day. Our woofie friend Khyra today reminded me of fun we had back in 2009 when GJ was sent to her for that day. I have shown you the pictures from then.
Khyra saw the box
GJ getting ready to go..
Ready for coming back..

 
We are so very short staffed at work with illness and holidays that I never seem to be away. I am only dipping in the internet for short periods to check things from the kids etc. I know I am missing so much and for that I am sorry. I left the house on Wednesday at 7:30 am and came in briefly at 4:45 which turned out to be only ten minutes before getting called out and didn't return until 22:10. Thankfully didn't get a call out in the night but was woken very early with a headache from hell. I have never experienced one like it and hope I don't again. Maybe tiredness or the way I had to struggle to lift a patient, not sure but it knocked me for six. On late shift and on call all weekend so will not be on the internet much but we are going to Holy Island on Tuesday so a little relaxation to look forward to.
Sorry for the moan but hey it helps sometimes. 
Hope you enjoyed the little GJ flash back. I did a lot
Hugs Carol

We used to think GJ looked so cute with his "summer" furcut and Mum still has our pink feather boa hanging from the bed headboard! Enjoy your trip to Holy Island - I loved it when I visited there.

you can "moan" any time that you want to! I don't know how you handle that grueling schedule!

Kari said...

There you are Jasper sweetheart! Look at your haircut. You look cool and comfy and oh so ginger! You're positively glowing! We miss you , precious love. We know you will visit the lovely garden your mum and dad have planted and they'll let us know when the recognize your presence.
We're sad to hear your mum is being run into the ground. Please tell he she must try very hard to take care of herself.

You sound like one of their steadiest, most reliable workers. I hope they appreciate you.

It's good to see Ginger Jasper again, especially with his buzz-cut hair.
