After a couple of interviews and a 3-day internship, Ben has officially been offered an apprenticeship at Nestle, to start in August. It’s what he wanted to do, and where he wanted to do it, and I couldn’t be prouder of his achievements. I opened the door, but he walked through it and did the heavy lifting to impress HR and the team he’s doing to be working/studying with.

Christmas craft project is Byron-approved
We’ve been wanting to do a tiled table for a while now, for several dog-related reasons. We’re hoping that the tiles and metal railings will prevent him from eating the damn thing, and hopefully help cool him down in the summer heat. We did it with the oldies while they were here over xmas. It almost looks like we knew what we were doing, and I’m super happy with the final result.

Cockroach seemed highly offended when I caught her in the act of going to town on her own leg.
Trying to get back into the gym groove
I am coming up to 50 and I’m fat and out of shape. While I’m walking often, my muscle mass has gone down and my body fat has gone up. Yay, unhealthy aging.
So, to fight this, I’ve started going to sports physio and as homework, I need to work out twice a week. I’m starting to get into the rhythm.
So far, I don’t hate it.
