Bought Sunday papers then did nothing, apart from crosswords, feeling a bit "off" after yesterdays jab
What have you been doing today?

My two jabs, covid and flu, caused me no issues at all, apart from maybe a slightly sore arm joint for 24 hours.
I seem to have had a cough since my flu jab two weeks ago. Tested myself several times for covid but negative both times. Covid jab tomorrow so I’ll test myself again before I go.

I decided not to you have to jabs as can't see the point but I'm getting stick.
I can see me caving in just to shut up the nagging and tut tutting.
Whatever.
Hung 2 pictures today.
Sorted van out ready for work.
Toolstation for filler and mastic ready for tomorrow.
Spent most of the day on forums and watching YouTube in between jobs .
Oh. I cleaned and treated van windscreen with washing up liquid to see if that stops it misting up.
Filed my work receipts for the week.
I'm enjoying listening to prison stories and gang member accounts so lined that up ready for tomorrows listening at work.
Paid for waste licence which is money down drain as nobody will ever look at it!
Stuffed face with roast dinner.
Lazy day for me tbh.
What a boring day!

I would check out your waste licence, roast dinner is always a positive.
Some drama today on my dog walk. A ferret came up to me on the path - I think it was tame and I think it was lost and hungry. It had either travelled a long way to get there as there are no houses for miles. Either that or someone was using it for ferreting and It got lost?
It wasn’t spooked by us or the dogs. Kept trying to climb up my leg but every time I tried to handle it, it tried to bite me and I had in the back of my mind that bloke that got bitten by a ferret on a chat show! Anyway, I took my coat off and tried to bundle it into that but it definately knew its way out of a bundled coat so in the end, I tied one sleeve in a knot and managed to get it into the sleeve and back to the car. I had more fun and games trying to get my car key out of the coat pocket without the ferret escaping. It made a right mess of my now patented Mottie ferret catcher/carrier!
My friend who I usually walk with was no bloody help but thought it hilarious watching me scream like a girl trying to pick it up. Of course she filmed me and put it on the WhatsApp group she is on with Mrs Mottie and their friends.

Anyway, yet another trip to the wildlife hospital who said they’d look after it. My friend is putting the info out on local facebook sites so hopefully it can be reunited with its owner.

Packing up items for the postman to pick up, replaced a battery in my watch.
Done, should cover a couple of weeks of ferret food
Just had my covid booster jab at a local pharmacy. Mrs Mottie came too and they did her as a walk-in.
Today I went out for my usual carvery and a pint - which has gone up by a pound, leaving the dog at home alone. As is my custom, I offer her a chew stick before proceeding on my way out via the side/ back door. She then gives me a 'look' before making her way to the bay window, climbing on a settee to watch me go, often as not with the chew in her mouth unchewed.
Four hours after my return, her already fed with some left overs from my carvery, made up to a dish-full with her usual food. She made a point of jumping on the settee in the bay, looked down the back of the cushion, then turned to stare at me. Rinse and repeat a few times, and it means 'there is something down/under there that I want your help with'. She must have bitten the chew and part of it fell down the cushion this morning - she remembered. She does the same when ever a ball or toy rolls under a settee, or in an awkward place, just points and stares until you get the idea.
Before that, I had left her snoring in the living room, on her bed, to go in the kitchen to make a coffee. The noise of the microwave must have roused her, because in she came and began nudging me and licking her lips - which means can I have a drink of milk? So she gets her drink of milk, whilst she is drinking that, I customarily pop a little dog biscuit on her back. She then sits and it usually rolls off her back on the floor, if not she sort of shakes a little as she sits to free it. It's quite amusing to instead of putting a biscuit on her back, to just touch her on the back then watch her frustration repeatedly shaking and sitting to shake of the imaginary biscuit. I do always give her a biscuit in the end

How many is that Mottie
Two regular ones, a booster this time last year and this one today so four in total.
