Do you think if I posted an ad saying \u2018wanted, body double\u2019 I\u2019d get any takers? Oh don\u2019t get me wrong, I\u2019m perfectly happy with the body I’ve got and most of the things I have to do with it. It\u2019s just that if I\u2019m being honest I\u2019m bored doing the Zoom calls. They were fun to begin with, but now when I see Mum sit on the settee in front of the camera I realise I am not going to get her undivided attention. She in turn has asked whether a change of location would keep me interested. \u2018What, like my beloved mountain?\u2019 but sadly she was meaning more that we could sit in the lounge. Does she think I can\u2019t tell it\u2019s basically the same thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thankfully when I kick off, which I did yesterday right at the start, Mum calls in reinforcements. Shadow came to lend a paw, but bless her, once she has jumped all over Mum in her excitement at helping, she prefers to sit on the floor. Then it\u2019s Aristotle\u2019s turn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, you\u2019re going to think this is really mean of me. Given it\u2019s my own fault that I\u2019m not in the limelight, the least I could do is be generous about Aristotle receiving compliments. However, if that dog comes bouncing out of another Zoom session telling me what a handsome dog everyone thinks he is, I might just tell him what I think. Ok, so he is good looking, but he\u2019s much nicer when he\u2019s modest with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From Izzy\u2019s progesterone test yesterday, Mum thinks she will be ready to meet her stud dog sometime from the middle of next week. Honestly, from how excited Mum is, you\u2019d think it was me hoping to have puppies rather than Izzy. We\u2019ve all got our paws crossed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
