Just thought I'd let you guys know I'm away for the weekend, going to a horse show with my family. I'll be back Monday. :) Be good whilst I'm gone. ;)

Thanks, guys!

I'm back now, I had a wonderful time! It was an amazing show, I'll tell you a little about some of the things that happened, if you're interested. :)

Sorry I haven't been around much these past couple of days, I've been mega busy. I have a day away again tomorrow, it's our bridesmaids dress fittings but we're having to travel quite a way. So I won't be around 'til Thursday unfortunately.

Hey guys,

I am back, but I'm very ill at the moment. Everyone at home is really ill as well, so after a days work I just crash out. I sleep a lot of the time when I'm not working, and I don't get online much. I hope I'll be better mid week, but until I start recovering I won't be around much. Sorry.

Thank you for the prayers, guys! :)

I am back now.

I had some antibiotics from the Doctor, and I'm feeling a lot better, although am not 100% yet. But I'm getting there. :D

:D I do keep lurking, but I'm not 100% yet; very busy, very exhausted and so I don't get to spend as much time as I'd like. Hopefully things will calm down over here soon; but until then I'll be keeping up with my jobs, and posting bits and bobs, but probably not as much as normal for now. :)

Thank you, Jon! I apologise for the emails you sent that I haven't replied to; I haven't been able to keep on-top of my emails very well at the moment. :P

I finally have the day off today! Very happy, as I have been so busy recently it's been crazy. I hope to catch up on some HW stuff. :D We have a new puppy arriving today, although Rach and Dad have had to go to Ireland to pick her up so she won't be arriving until around 2am, so be expecting lots of photos of her. :D

Hey guys!

So, I'm hoping to be around more now. :) I feel so bad for being absent for so long, but life has been weird, busy and unusual for me lately.

Here are a few pictures of our new puppy, Mercedes.

And the link below is a photo of what she should end up looking like. :) We are intending to show her, so I'm spending a lot of time grooming her, and have started stripping her coat as well.

Giant Schnauzer

And that's what she should end up looking like. :) We are intending to show her, so I'm spending a lot of time grooming her, and have started stripping her coat as well.

She is growing fast! She's very well behaved as well, and was house trained in about three days! She eats much more than our Mini's it's quite funny!

Me too. It's good to be busy, but I hate feeling out of touch here! :)
