Evening
I was happily sat downstairs with Oz last night - my usually evening routine, when my dad piped up
"why you are home tonight? Why hasnt Jack got you?" (Like im some sort pet or child) -___-
mum responds before I could "he's on the piss"
dad "good one Jack, all is forgiven" XD
thats where i stand on the matter, a trouble to my parents but Jack's drinking is supported XD
It took a while to drop off last night but I got there
apart from waking up at 4am feeling sick and needing a wee so I got up and I had a hot chocolate and some pain killers and went back to bed where I slept til about 8am
This morning felt weird, getting up and getting ready - not doing my morning exercises
me and mum were meeting Karen, I drove me and mum to a garden centre where we met Karen at 10:30am, it was soooo good to finally see her and she looks soooo well ^^ he hair is really growing back from her cancer, she looks healthier than me, how depressing is my life XD a recovering cancer patient has more radiance and glow than me!
but we sat and chatted for 2 hours, i was struggling to sit after a while
we had earl grey tea and a scone which was the best scone i have had in a long time
so we left and came home and I had lunch then i rested on my bed as i had taken a good dose
when I got up I motivated myself to go for a walk, i wanted to, but it looked a bit chilly out there!
still i walked for an hour i was sweaty afterwards
i came in and had a brew with my Oz
then i looked into what i could get Tara for her birthday on the 11th September
shes established and doesnt need or want anything, i didnt want to ask what she wanted, as i never like asking people what they want, i prefer to give them a total surprise. Only this month did she get a baby bunny who looks very cute and sounds very sweet natured and i can tell shes very happy with him as her current bunny is very grouchy and doesnt appreciate fuss. So I brought her a bunny bundle online and asked for it to be sent to her house instead of mine then i havent got to go over and give it to her. She extremely protective of James during this virus as he was born with only 1 lung so hes vulnerable, so i havent seen her since february. which is fair enough.
I then set about making her a birthday card, I water coloured Jasper, looks cute ^^ I will take a photo tomorrow
then I did 40mins of yoga, i was done in afterwards
Had dinner, and did my diary
gonna have a shower and sit with Ozwald
I have my concerns about Oz
basically for a while now like since maybe last year I have been saying his joints arent right, and lately i can tell if he hasnt moved for a while, he sits like hes holding himself as if hes got stomach ache or something. and when i move him like from his cage to the grass, hes always stiff and has to stretch to get himself going. when i carry him i can tell he isnt comfortable. this week i have noticed it really bad. and its because we have had cold damp weather which affects joints. this morning i put him on the bedding plants - soft - and his back leg gave way and then it took him 3 hops to get the leg moving again it was horrible to watch and i had put him down carefully. he hopped onto the bench today and sat on it ages, but then started pacing up and down and i said to mum "what is he doing?"
mum said "wonder if he cant get back down?" now we know he can we've seen him do it hundreds of times, but with his joints this week, maybe it would hurt him to get back down onto the wooden decking? so i went out to him quickly but he already made the jump. So im a bit stressed about it to be honest. as I looked into rabbit arthritis and basically all that can be done is pain relief thats it. it doesnt help that he is a bit over weight but not dramatically but it still doesnt help. i do watch what i give him now days tho. i dont really want to dose my rabbit up every day, hes only 3. but i guess i will have to if hes in pain but i think its cus its getting colder.
i talked to mum about it. and i said i was planning on taking him to the vets during october for his yearly vaccinations so i could ask then about it. but i said "maybe he needs an indoor cage?" she said "well you have plenty of room in your bungalow, a spare bedroom in fact"
this is true
so i plan on talking to jack about this, how he feels about Oz being an resident in the house
i would need to buy an indoor cage but i was planning on buying a new hutch anyway so thats no hardship really. i have never had an indoor bunny in the 15 years of owning a rabbit. to be honest i think jack will be totally cool with it. and Oz will only sleep indoors he will still play outside when he can :)
i just want what is best for him, and for him to go without pain killers for as long as possible as he might really need them in later life.
Tomorrow
mia mentioned on friday if i wanted to meet up on monday but im unsure if she realised it is bank holiday - rob will be off work - so im not sure if we are still meeting up
ether way i decided i want to try putting semi-permanent lilac hair dye streaks in my hair
never done it before i fancied the challenge and a change
and then at some point i will see jack as i am sleeping over at his as unfortunately i have school on tuesday!!! ugh freedom almost over
