Hmmmmmph!

In case you're wondering, that funny word above is a long aggitated sigh, I just didn't quite know how to spell it!

I was due to drop off my cat Poppy into the vets tomorrow to have a thyroidectomy the day after - she has to go on a drip 24 hours beforehand because of a slight kidney problem. Anyway, I got home this evening only to find out that the vet had called earlier and spoke to John. As Andrea, the particular vet who specialises in these type of operations, is on holiday, they wanted to postpone it until 3rd January.

It's so annoying when that happens coz you build yourself up to something only to be dashed at the last minute. Naturally I was getting a bit nervous and it's always horrible putting your pet through all that. So now I have to wait until after the New Year. I am now on leave from work so that's why I booked the op for this week - fortunately on 3rd January I have a half day and John is off all week, so at least there'll be no problem in that respect.

So lucky Poppy-Lou - you have a reprieve (for now).
