Day 95 – Sorry again not much walking today, but a busy day nonetheless, first another Eva vet visit. I know it is a shame we don’t have shares in the place, but a complete and utter fortuitous blessing that we do have pet insurance. Oh, boy haven’t we just kicked the arse out of it. Giant breed dog, Giant breed dog vet bills. I know some say that dog insurance is a rip-off but we always get it. I would whole heartily suggest everyone gets pet insurance. Because hopefully you won’t need it and hopefully you will see it as a waste of money but should you need it, it’s there. Big dog 4 times the tablets 4 times the cost. First Dane heart murmur (lifelong condition). And I have never ever had a more poorly dog then Eva, who shot through her £10K allowance of last year in 10 months, and we limped in for the last two months paying and praying nothing else went wrong, came up, or further injury (lifelong skin condition and allergies). John Lewis Pet Insurance, who knew, but they do. They have been so good and paid out with little quibbling and directly to the vets.
At the dreaded Vets, Willow made a scene, as usual, she is completely petrified of the vet, who is a lovely lady. After Willow’s dramatized scenes we went to Mum's – don’t worry we're in her social bubble, well when I say we, it was Me, Willow, and Eva, so how much of social bubble the girls appeared to be is up for debate. But to be fair, mum seemed happy to see them and they were happy to see her.
Not wearing a watch is weird, I feel naked and don’t like it. I was using a cracker packet one, but it clocked me as walking 1000 steps and I’d been sitting down all morning so clearly completely inaccurate. I was retelling the tale, and Mum suggested, as if by magic and totally without suggestion, hints, or peer pressure - Mum had this wonderful idea of me borrowing her Fitbit, amazing suggestion and totally out of the blue. I very gratefully accepted as I still have 2 weeks to wait until my strap turns up.
