Not much going on

Ive not updated in a while, but really not much has been happening.

I'm still gaining weight, albeit very slowly (mercifully!). I'm about 6-7lbs over target now, but making a bit of effort this week.

Back at school this week and it was a bit hard going after only one week off! Maybe it's because Liam was off work with us. Our home is getting increasingly messy, to the point where I'm quite worried that I shall never regain control. There just always seems to be too much to do! I'm feeling a bit more upbeat and likely to get on with stuff today, but then I've already had to take Scarlett to ballet (Liam's at a tutorial) and collect an item for Liam from the sorting office (which wasn't even there after the loooonnnng queue dammit) and then I'll have to whisk Scarlett off to a party this afternoon (do these parties ever end??) so although feeling positive, I probably wont actually get any more than usual done at home.

I had a bit of a landmark moment with Tonks yesterday morning - as I was getting ready to put her lead on and return home, she suddenly saw a teenage boy come in to the park on his way to school and bombed after him faster than you could imagine! I quickly 'pipped' on my whistle and prayed that she would come back; she got within inches of this boy when she stopped and turned back to me like a bullet! Shocked was an understatement - and I was so so proud of her! Of course, as DH pointed out, it would be far better if she never run after him in the first place, but that moment really was a breakthrough and I hope that we can keep with it.
Today she had fun with another pup her age, a male Staff x weimaraner who kept trying to mount her! He really tried to dominate and Tonks lost all assertiveness, that was the first time I've seen her roll over for another dog, lol! But I'm glad in a way, she needs to experience all kinds of dogs while she's young and able to learn better.

Gah - I'm so *tired*!!! I could just fall asleep now, and my eyes are stinging like mad. I didn't go to bed that late and slept well, without getting up as early as usual this morning. Yet every single day I am falling asleep - I wish I knew why.
