One is not having to deal with all the changes of address that come about as a result of moving. I\u2019d like to say that we don\u2019t have changes that need doing, it\u2019s just a human thing, but that\u2019s wrong. Mum has explained that we need to update our records for our microchips, my passport, our insurance, The Kennel Club, our food supplier\u2026 I may have fallen asleep at that point. I\u2019m just glad that Mum has a list and is working her way through it. The sad part is that she will have to do it all twice, once whilst we\u2019re of no fixed abode and again when we move into our new home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Illogical<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mum says the worst part is there is no logic for how to do the changes. Some companies say you have to make changes through their app on the phone. Others say that you have to do it through their desktop login. Some don\u2019t seem to want you to do it at all. I\u2019m going to be very upset if I find my food is delivered to the wrong place. I\u2019ve asked Mum if she can prioritise that one, but she says that\u2019s not as important as some of the others. How can she say that? If she gets that wrong I shall be on the phone to the local butcher ordering best steak to keep us going until our food arrives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Having fun<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve been having great fun playing with the other dogs here. There is a serious risk of me going home fitter than I arrived. Mum says perhaps she should have booked in to join us, but I think they may have spotted she wasn\u2019t a dog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Wilma thinks there are some very good things about being a dog and one of them is not having to do her own changes of address!<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":23730,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23778","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-day-to-day-life","post_format-post-format-gallery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23778","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23778"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23778\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23730"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23778"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23778"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23778"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
