The 28th of July. I actually had a thing today - endocrine clinic, but I'd forgotten to put it in my diary. Thankfully, Mommy had it in hers, so we didn't miss it.
Andy Toogood usually runs pretty well to time, and today was no exception, so I got very little of my book read. He called me in shortly after half eleven, and I updated him on my current state. There's nothing he can do about any of it but he needs to know these things. He did want some bloods to check my thyroid function, so I did that, then we had a quick trip into town. I needed to stock up on facewipes, and Mommy wanted to get her glasses tightened up a bit. We went our separate ways, and I searched all the aisles of Superdrug, but it think they've stopped stocking the range I use. Curses. So I bought some other ones and some toothpaste, and had a very entertaining time in the queue - a child in front was being a dick, doing fake crying because he couldn't have some mint imperials. Then, when I had to pay, he was blocking my way, and refused to move. The woman with him (grandmother?) couldn't get him to move until she physically moved him, and she apologised to me a lot. As I left, I heard her say "That's it, I'm not taking you to McDonald's now." Bwahahaha.
This afternoon, I have been assembling the minion. I got the arms and legs on, but when it came to attaching the eye, it was too big, so I've had to make it again with a smaller hook and it looks a lot more promising.
The 29th of July.
Finished the minion and season 2 of Zoo. What a productive person I am.
Started my day with a phone call from Black Sheep to rearrange my hair cut appointment because Danyl has left! Don't know why, he's just gone. So June is going to cut it instead. Mysterious. Then I finished the minion's face and took some photos to send to Robyn and Stu, who were greatly appreciative. Then I wrote up the blog post I forgot to do yesterday, and sorted out what I need for the panda.
Lunch (pretzel and cinnamon swirl, thank you M&S), then this afternoon has been spent on the last three episodes of Zoo (had a tiny cry) and began work on the panda. He does not contain an immense amount of black and is less tricky than the minion so won't be as hard as I thought.
I have also been trying to find a Pandora charm that is appropriate for tomorrow. I found a toy soldier, because I am a brave soldier? These links are getting very tenuous now but there is not much I haven't thought of in ten years.
