Phew, eventually here. Had a bit of a busy day today, so took my pics before I went off to work this morning. They aren't very exciting or imaginative today.First off, here's me and my dog Bubble. He's a lab/staffie cross. We went out jogging at 6am this morning and when we got back home I thought I'd take this picture for my blog. My apologies for looking so bad and my dog just wouldn't perform for the camera.............in dog talk the fact he's looking the other way means 'look at the camera and say cheese, my arse'. lol!
Anyway, as I was saying we were up and out at 6am, just jogged around the local streets. There isn't very many places to jog at that time in the morning, because where I live there are lot's of secluded areas, places that you really don't want to be on your own at that time in the morning.
I got home and was bloody knackered, yet my dog looked at me and gave me the 'come on you unfit person' look.
My second picture is again of my dog. This time I got him to give you all a little wave. Although, capturing the wave on a digital camera is really hard because of the delay. He does several tricks, he waves as you can see, he walks backwards, weaves in between my legs, twirls, stands on his back legs, walks on his back legs and goes round and round me.
One more picture to round the day off. It's a pink Orchid and was given to my mum by my auntie (My mum's sister). I just thought it looked really pretty in the light and that's the only reason I have for taking this picture. Although now I think about it, the flower was given to my mum just after she came out of hospital, a kind of 'get well soon' gift.
My mum had a phone call today from her cancer nurse. They had a meeting yesterday to discuss mum's operation and they rang to tell her that they've made an appointment for her to discuss the outcome with them. The appointment is for next Tuesday. Very scared now, again, it's the not knowing. Argh!
Moving on slightly before I depress myself too much. It was my first session back at college tonight and although tough going after a days work, I really enjoyed being back and seeing everyone. I didn't realise when I started the course that I would develop a bond with my fellow students and the lecturers the way I have. We had to hand our essay's in tonight, which was scary. However, we did get our marks and comments for the presentation we did just before Christmas. I am absolutely over the sodding moon with the grades and comments I got. My overall mark was 67% (pass mark was 40%). I got 5 very goods and 2 excellent and some really positive comments. I am totally shocked to be honest because I wasn't totally convinced I had done it right. So, yeah, the long busy day I've had has ended on a really great high. Better get off to bed now though, have to be up at about 5.40am, early start at work tomorrow, although I finish at 1pm, so it's not all bad. :-D Take care! xx

Bubble is adorable as always!
