got up toasty early (although it was freezing - yes, i was very cold last night) for a hair cut. only to have to wait because the hairdresser was running late.

so i shopped at myer. got my bang bang bin and some clearance clothing. nice~

came home, nessie's eye was weepy. so made a last min consultation at the RSPCA. poor baby. so scared. so she's somehow managed to damage the outer layer of her eye and amazingly not her cornea. the vet was perplexed and had no idea how that could have happened except to say that she's a super lucky dog! so we came home with some eye ointment. that's going to be fun...

and then...

more itinerary and europe research and planning. it goes slow but almost there in terms of what to DO. then i need to plan how much to SPEND (i.e., budget). easy part right?

anyhoo and i feel the need to share with all that i watched breaking dawn last night after awesome dinner with janpanny at chat thai.

hahaha yeah.. . needless to say, it was... . . . . . . as you'd expect. had its moments.

a fitting day - it has been exactly one month and we finally got to bring him home!!!

going to bury him and plant some pretty flowers when the weather clears up.

no adorable dogs today at the rspca. :(

there was this massive siberian husky in tan though. never seen one like it before!

took my beloveds to the rspca. vet checks and booster shots all around. poor bubbas. scout has been recommeded to an eye specialist so need to organise that.

this morning, my challenge was to get a urine sample out of him. it was very very difficult but he finally peed on someone's wall and lucky for me . . . i had a dish waiting... YAY!!!

so we took that to the rspca to be tested and then me and wendie went to look at all the pups and cats and kittens and dogs up for adoption. and zomg zomg.

if i didn't already have scout and nessie, i soooo would have adopted either the spitz puppy or beautiful fly the border collie. he was sooo smart and obedient!!!!!

also satisfied my yum cha craving at my fav nrl club restaurant.

anddd went to dfo on a whim - and bought more for my sis that for myself. pretty good sales but as always, the tradeoff is that there are too many people.

meet nessie, shes my new australian cross cattledog. and shes beautiful.

we picked her up from the rspca today. it was a close call. cause if i'd been 5 minutes earlier, nessie would be a chocolate and white "jasper" (which is her brother). but as an afterthough, valerie, dad and i had decided that nessie was the better choice. she was lighter, brighter, happier and more playful. her brother was down, fat and lazy.

went to arvo tea - hk style (yeah, i'm livin in the past) with valerie. then we went to get puppy food and toys and whatever else puppies need. a brush. still need to get her a kennel. but don't think she needs one yet.

she's not allowed to be walked yet cause she still needs to get her booster shots. but shes smart and she's already learning how to sit!

scout's a bit jealous when we only pay her attention. but he's being an awesome big brother to 'miu miu'. he keeps an eye out for her and makes sure she doesn't go where she's not supposed to. =)
