Sore feet and aching muscles were forgotten as they reached the end knowing they had smashed their target for this year.<br />
<br />
Over the 4 coast to coast walks of the UK they have now raised in excess of £15,000 for Greyhound Gaps kennel fund!<br />

Off for a long weekend on Friday with Dawn to our usual haunt to have a crafting weekend.Sue aka Greyhound Loverhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03336712088816243258noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5610247204844289122.post-72874294540454589132014-09-16T15:44:00.001+00:002014-09-16T15:44:06.704+00:00Where to start?<span style="font-size: large;">Can it really be so long since I blogged! It's been a difficult few months as I have had a foot infection since the end of May and despite months of antibiotics both oral and IV the foot is still infected. I haven't been allowed to have my arthritis injection since the end of May which has meant life has become rather difficult.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Gangley bless her is still with us and enjoying life, I take her out on a mobility scooter I now have and then she has a wander and back onto my lap for the ride home. Just as a princess should be treated.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The other guys are all well and even the brat pack have calmed down to the point Eric can now walk the 7 hounds in one go rather than two outings.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We've just returned from our first holiday together for 15 years. We spent a lovely week in Sea Palling Norfolk with the front garden right on the hickling broads. All 8 dogs came with us and had a blast.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Eric has been lucky enough to have a loan horse called Brambles and is making good progress with his quest to ride and jump but it takes quite a lot of time each day to visit the stables and do the day to day stuff before the fun stuff LOL hence the need to walk all 7 dogs together. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">My son is currently in the process of walking across The republic of Ireland. It's the final chapter of the 4 planned coast to coast walks of Great Britan an.by walkingthebeat.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">THis walk is the longest and hardest 387 miles over 18 days, I can't really contemplate walking 387 miles.</span><br />

Lovely day at Bramford crop on Saturday, Janina always makes sure we have a good timer.<br />
<br />
Finally finished that's been hanging about for ages for Ben's album.<br />

Weather was great except for torrential rain Wednesday evening which didn't effect us LOL. We scrapped loads and even went for a walk each day. Ate very healthy and Dawn is Mother of the bride next month and wants to lose a few lbs lots of salad and fruit yummy! more so as Eric kindly prepared it all for us to take away.<br />
<br />
Eric told me Gangley wouldn't eat and lord knows he tried everything then on Thursday Belle became poorly so we put it down to a bug. Had just arrived home Friday feeling totally relaxed and rested when Belle started losing lots of blood from bottom, rushed to vets and she has colic which is apparently common but we've never come across it before. Vet said she probably ate something bad and she had been off lead up the meadow on Wednesday eve. Couple of jabs and she should be back to normal soon. Gangley ate a little last night but I had to hand feed her and she's very frail. Hoping now I'm home she'll perk up. Poor Eric got hardly any of his jobs done as Gangley was "demanding" his words not mine LOL. I have told him she's like that with me but don't think he had realised how bad it is.<br />
<br />
Anyway got 9 layouts scrapped one of which had 3 pages! we always take kits from crop as it means we don't hae to take so much stash with us but also we try and put our own stamp on them.<br />
<br />
These are kits designed by Janina for Bramford crop<br />

We've been going for 9 years now. This time we're going Monday to Friday instead of a long weekend which means an extra day yay! Eric is taking the week off so need to worry about the hounds and hopefully he'll have time to catch up on some of his jobs LOL.<br />
<br />
My car finally came home yesterday, two weeks at the garage being repaired after being reversed into by someone not looking where they were going. We had a courtesy car but it was brand new and so posh it worried us both LOL.<br />
<br />
A couple of layouts, first ben with his rocket he made, using a kit designed by Janina with a few Suzy's touches LOL.<br />

This year we're going Monday to Friday which gives us an extra day to craft LOL.<br />
<br />
Had a lovely day at Bramford crop on Saturday, extended hours to celebrate National scrapbooking day for those with stamina. Jannina always makes sure we have a great time and everyone wins a prize.<br />
<br />
Two layouts, both digi backgrounds and then convention paper.<br />
<br />

Bought Eric new jodhpurs for his birthday and he got lots of money for extra lessons. Doing work for Maria in exchange for bum in saddle time is working out well he gets to ride several times a week in addition to the lessons at klub equest, lucky or what! And for those who think he's left it rather late in life to start there's a lady who stables her horse at Maria's who has just started at the age of 70! LOL. </div>
<br />
Finally found out what was wrong with Gangley she had a open ulcer type thing at the top inside leg which was why she couldn't walk, antibiotics and cream and it's almost healed and she's back to being reasonably mobile although her appetite is becoming a problem trying all sorts to tempt her. Of course cake is acceptable.<br />
<br />
Other hounds are all well and have been enjoying the better weather.<br />
<br />
I had a little meltdown yesterday went to do some work on our walkingthebeat website and it had disappeared, felt sick as I had been doing a lot of work on it but it's back now thank goodness.<br />

Also visited my Uncle John who is helping me with family history for my
heritage album and we went out for a meal with some friends. One is well and truly
shattered.<br />
<br />
<br />
Dogs are also totally shattered.<br />
<br />
Today Gangley has taken a real dip, her left back leg won't work at all and she either falls or just stands but can't walk. Eric is going to try hitting her hard with reiki tonight and we've been giving her some extra homoeopathy stuff, paws crossed, it's awful to see but true to form Gangley is bothered.<br />
<br />
Shall be having a very early night.<br />

Vikki had been saying for ages she wanted a bike, so Eric bought a second hand one and done it up for and gave it to her this week as an early birthday present, she squealed so loud our ears hurt LOL. Now she can go for rides with Ben. Her bike is called Daisy apparently and she has of course a purple helmut LOL.<br />

Who yet again has had to remind me to blog! life with 8 dogs is always full on and doesn't leave much spare time. I've also been very busy making cards to sell to start this years coast to coast walking fund.<br />
<br />
A layout I recently finished, each year I ask Ben the same questions around his birthday, thought it would be fun to look back at the changes as he grows up.<br />

Dogs are thoroughly enjoying the sunshine and no mud! Gangley has good days and the wobbly days but is happy in herself.<br />
<br />
Will try to remember to take photo's of the cards I've made, all digital and CHEAP LOL.<br />

Garden has actually begun to dry out from months of rain.<br />
<br />
had a lovely time at Bramford crop and actually finished the last two layouts of my 2013 album<br />
<br />
Although Twizzle is only a year older than Belle she is definitely Mummy and takes care of little Belle, washes her, cuddles up to her night time to keeps her warm and plays with her, they are rarely apart.<br />

Well I had to record the Christmas wipe out didn't I, it's mostly digital with a few bits decoupaged and the title and bling added.<br />
<br />
Hounds are all well and happy, although Gangley has become much frailer, so sad and really upsets us seeing her struggle but then just as you think that's it she perks up and has a good spell. Really hoping she can enjoy another summer.

Eric recently got another motorbike (think that's number 9- but only two on the road LOL) since I had my knee replaced in 2008 I couldn't manage to ride on the back of his GPZ as it's a racing style and left my knee at a painful angle HOWEVER on this new one I have a proper seat and foot plate and it's so comfy. I gave my leathers away but luckily hung on to my helmet, boots and gloves and my sister kindly lent me her gear to wear. Can't wait for some warmer days to go out and about on it. Eric has always said bikes are for riding not polishing but he has turned into a polisher with all that chrome. So going to have to document that LOL.

So many people have had their homes flooded or destroyed by falling trees, so no more moaning about mud from me.<br />
<br />
Scrapped with Dawn last Friday and did this layout of Ben's 8th birthday. It's based on a layout I've done before designed by Vanessa from Papermase. The little girl is one of Dawns grandaughters Jasmine. I've blurred her face out as they don't like her to appear on the web which is fair enough. I've also printed out the birthday invites I had designed for Ben's rollerskating party and popped it behind the photo, maybe it will be of interest to him when he's older.<br />

Half term this week so tomorrow Ben will be here all day and has our day planned LOL. Making cakes, arts and crafts and walking dogs.<br />
<br />
On Sunday we finally had a lovely day and the hounds made the most of it playing outside and soaking up some sun for hours. Poor things have been stuck in doors apart from walks for weeks.<br />
<br />
Gangley seems to have become frailer the last week or so but nothing wrong with her bark or appetite LOL.<br />
<br />
More than half way through February and I still haven't finished my 2013 scrap album, hoping to get another couple done on Friday and at crop Saturday.Sue aka Greyhound Loverhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03336712088816243258noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5610247204844289122.post-67011229866942319862014-02-02T11:58:00.002+00:002014-02-02T11:58:12.512+00:00Mojo is 14!Well that's approx 14, impossible to say exactly with rescue dogs although Mojo was first rehomed via GG in 2005 and he was thought to be about 4/5 then.<br />

Had a poorly Ben home Wednesday, sore throat and cough but basically think he's just exhausted. He's had a lot of changes with moving house and school but apart from tired he's loving living out here.<br />

He spent the day snuggling up to all the hounds which was lovely for them all.<br />
<br />
Actually managed a layout at crop LOL. photo of Eric and Ben looking very serious whilst playing a game on PC last August. I was horrified to discover I still needed to do 8 layouts to complete my 2013 album. Best get on with it!<br />
<br />
Really enjoyed a break from muddy paws at crop yesterday, Janina always makes sure we have a lovely day and I won another prize a beautiful photo frame for multiple photo's. <br />

Dad has had the all clear from hospital after his hip replacement and can resume driving. Mum has been brilliant taking care of him and doing all the driving but is quite happy to let him take over now.<br />
<br />
Gangley continues to be okay wobbly but eating well and enjoying little walks. Yesterday and today we have blue skies and no rain what a treat! everywhere is totally water logged with more heavy rain forecast this week.<br />
<br />
Roll on spring!!!!<br />

Also found this gorgeous photo of Gangley. Gangey has good days and then a few bad days but on the whole is pretty good. Others are all okay just fed up being confined to indoors because of the wet and mud!<br />

Eric bought me the silhouette cameo for Christmas and I totally love it! even more so now I've finally managed to export an image from the digi programme I use to the silhouette which then cuts it out for me. It is a bit more long winded than I expected but I'm sure as I get used to doing it I will become quicker, so no more cutting fiddly bits out by hand when I want to do a hybrid layout!<br />
<br />
Talking of hands went to see my hand surgeon Friday and whilst there are several issues going on we both felt as I'm managing it would be best to leave them alone for now.<br />
<br />
<br />
Looking forward to scrapping on Friday with Dawn and going to Bramford crop on Saturday.<br />
<br />
We've booked our scrapping break, off to Caistor as usual but have decided to go Monday to Friday this time and have the extra day we always say we want after a long weekend LOL.

Friday Dawn and I actually managed to have our normal scrap day, first time in ages and then Saturday I went to Papermaze crop and enjoyed a few well earned hours away from mud! With constant rain and storms everywhere is water logged and our garden is a bog. Poor dogs spend all day waiting for paws to dry out! It is very depressing.</div>

This was a kit designed by Janet but as my photo was landscape and not portrait I made lots of changes and cuts lots of bits out using my new silhouette that I got for Christmas. Seems so long ago that that photo was taken just before Orin passed away so suddenly.</div>

Eric actually managed to get out in between showers last weekend on his bike and set up the thingy I bought him for Christmas which records distance and speed. He was very disappointed when it recorded 21mph as he had thought he must be doing 30mph LOL. We did laugh when he put the new sunglasses on as I had missed the ticket with retail price £49.99, poor Eric said I can't wear these they're too expensive what if I break them. Had to show him the receipt proving I paid £9.99 LOL.</div>

At the Christmas crop at Bramford I was lucky enough to win the star prize, a carousel for all your crafting bits and bobs, finally got around to sorting it out this week and I love it. Of course it had a roll on effect and I spent the rest of the week reorganising my crafting stuff.<br />

So when I go to crop now I just put scissors etc in my tool bag and I'm sorted.<br />
<br />
Other than being fed up with mud hounds are all well.<br />
<br />
Herbie missed his 3rd chemo session as his blood count was low, everyone is hoping it's just a blip. We've lost so many hounds to bone cancer and we only tried chemo the last time with Lucky but she never made it passed 2 cycles so desperatly hoping Herbie will be okay he really is greyhound gaps favourite hound totally adored by so many people.

So yet again I manged to miss all of Christmas and New Year but at least Mr T managed to keep me out of hospital this time! Finally starting to feel better and starting to function again.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
It's an exciting weekend for us as our daughter and family are moving to the village and my grandson has started school over the road from us. It's going to be so good so see little Ben everyday, although doing the school run is taking some getting used to, I am so worried about forgetting to collect him I have to set an alarm LOL.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Dogs are all well and were fantastic whilst I was busy dying, not helped by Eric also getting sick. Several days they did get a walk at all and were quiet as little mice. With weeks of storms and rain everywhere is water logged and once again we battle the mud, our garden always gets very muddy but it's now so bad I daren't even walk around it.</div>

Looking forward to life returning to normal and going to crop next weekend.<br />
<br />
Great news Dad is making fantastic progress with his new hip and we're all very proud of him and Mum who has been a star taking such good care of him.<br />
<br />
Herbie has had two sessions of chemo and is fully adapted to life on three legs.<br />
<br />
Think that brings me up to date LOL. </div>

<br />
Tomorrow my little grandson Ben will be 8, the years have gone by so quickly and he is growing up so fast. He's having a party with friends at lunchtime then family will visit for cake later. I made his party invites and thought they were good but Ben bless him thought they were mega cool LOL.<br />

I'm very pleased to update you all on Herbie's progress, he's had his first chemo session and is now adapting to life as a tripod and can go up and downstairs, impressive!<br />
<br />
Greyhound Gap have a DVD out for sale, Amanda another volunteer has been working on it all year, I've helped a little bit by designing the cover and researching stories etc and there's a section on walking the beat. Approx running time 52 minutes and at £12.50 inc of p & p is a bargain all money raised goes to the kennel fund. If you fancy a copy you can buy it <a href="http://www.greyhoundgap.org.uk/merchandise/online-shop" target="_blank">here</a>. By strange coincidence Amanda chose a photo of Gangley and Orin for the front not knowing they were our dogs LOL.<br />
<br />
My Dad is making brilliant progress after having his hip replaced last Thursday and Mum has been a wonderful nurse. The females in our family are not usually good Florence Nightingales, day one is okay, Day two interest starts to wane and by day three forget it LOL. Just hope Mum doesn't get worn out herself.<br />
<br />
Gangley hasn't been so good lately, whilst she is in no way ill her wobbling has increased but she's still managing two shorter walks a day and still eating like a dog twice her size LOL. Other hounds are all well, Elmo has so far destroyed two baubles from the tree and a Father Christmas not as bad as we feared. <br />
<br />
A few projects finished but better wait until post Christmas to share. LOL.<br />

On Sunday we took Dad and Mum out to Sunday lunch as Dad will be in hospital for his birthday on the 14th. Dad had his hip replaced yesterday and will hopefully be home Monday. Poor Dad has had a really difficult year with health problems and we're all hoping this operation will be the beginning of better times for him.<br />
<br />
I was asked to design the Greyhound Gap DVD cover and disc which should be on sale soon. I had helped a little bit with information on dogs and the walking the beat stuff and apparently I will be in the acknowledgements LOL. All very exciting. Amanda who is making the DVD sent me this photo and said do you know whose dogs they are and are they gap dogs of course I knew it's Gangley and dear Orin what a coincidence she chose that photo. <br />

And the biggest shock ever is we have the tree up and the house decorated. Normally we are very late doing this LOL. I wasn't going to have the tree up (we didn't last year) because of the 3 young dogs but Eric got it out and left it bare for a few days and as they showed no interest we decorated it last night. I am still not convinced it will survive!</div>

and all our bridge babies are remembered even more so at Christmas time with thee lovely things Mum made for us, last night as we hung them up we felt quite sad especially adding Orin who at just 4 years old should still be with us. Such a wonderful way of remembering each hound that once shared our lives.<br />
<br />
Off to Christmas crop tomorrow and have just made a malteser tray bake yummy!<br />

Chest and water infection guess that's buy one get one free. Strong antibitics so starting to feel better.<br />

Very pleased to announce Herbie is well and truly on the mend and is now going for 2 - 5 minute walks a day and is finally sleeping through the night, his poor Mum Lorraine is exhausted.<br />

We're taking Ben out tonight to see the Christmas lights beingswitched on, we've done it every year since he was born but suspect it will soon be un cool to go out with the wrinkles so had better make the most of it. Ben will be 8 on the 21st December how time has flown.<br />
<br />
All the hounds are well (touching wood) just fed up with the constant rain and mud as are we!<br />
<br />
I have decided to sell my Cricut Expression, I've had it since 2008 and only used it enough to wear out the original cutting mat, with it comes four cartridges,plantin school book, home decor, home accents and accent essentials, so if you fancy buying yourself a Christmas present it's going for £75.00.Sue aka Greyhound Loverhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03336712088816243258noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5610247204844289122.post-71363456547970972632013-11-18T13:59:00.002+00:002013-11-18T13:59:08.151+00:00HERBIEI've held back until today to post about Herbie as he has been terribly poorly. He had his amputation and all seemed to go fairly well and the following day he went home. Once home he went down hill very fast and was eventually admited into a vet hospital. It seems his vet never gave him a anti clotting injection and as most greyhound owners know their blood really doesnt clot very which following surgery can be very dangerous. Herbie began bleeding internally and it has taken all weekend for them to stabalise him. He has however now turned the corner and god willing will be home in a few days. All of gap world have been sending him massive good thoughts and weve all been on tender hooks all weekend praying ee would pull through. This morning his Mum (Lorraine) rang me as she wanted reassurance that she would cope when he comes home, I told her it is stressful and you remain on red alert for months but they are so well prepared I feel sure they will cope. Lorraine is a strong woman and I know she will do just fine. Milo one of her other dogs is now not eating at all no doubt missing his brother and Lorraine's austric son can't understand why they just don't go and get Herbie. It's been hell for all of them and I hope and pray that happier days lay ahead for all of them.<br />

Today my Dad received a call from the hospital to say he is booked in for his replacement hip operation on Decemeber 12th, it had to be put on hold earlier in the year whilst they tried to find out about the other problems, so looks like Dad will be spending his birthday in hospital. I've made him a card, it is a card on top of a card and has a beautiful poem about Dad's. Terrible photo as per usual.<br />

Dasiy is adorable and I love her.<br />

Finally probably the worst photo I've ever taken of a layout recording this years walk. Lots of hidden journalling. Layout is actually quite nice and used papers from a Bramford kit, tried to follow Janinas design but as my photo was landscape had to make a lot of changes.<br />

A week or so ago I had all but decided to stop blogging as I have so little time with 8 dogs and feel like nothing of interest to say or show really but then one of my dear friends I've known through greyhound gap for over 7 years rang me to say her greyhound Herbie had been diagnosed with osteosarcoma. Herbie is greyhound gaps most loved hound and such a clown and the news hit everyone very hard. Whilst talking to Lorraine I remembered I'd blogged when Jim, Sandy, Ranger and Lucky were diagnosed with the dreaded bone cancer and went back to read it. After going through lots of tissues I realised what a source of information this was and passed it onto Lorraine so she could read a blow by blow account of what happened how we felt and coped. So that said I've decided maybe the blog is of use to me if no one else and will carry one LOL.<br />
<br />
Lorraines daughter had drawn me some hounds to use in card making that I had called Herbie, I think previous post has some pictures so please send loads and loads of positive thought to dear Herbie and Lorraine. Herbie is at the vets for amputation as I type.<br />
<br />
I apologise for not visiting my blogging friends but will try to soon.<br />
