Twice a day

We had to wake early this morning as Lilly needed to go to the local vet in Bar-Sur-Seine for a blood test. It was a bit of a shock to the system getting out of bed before 8am for a shower. Lilly suffers from an over-active thyroid, so she needs to be checked periodically to ensure her level of medicine is okay. When we arrived in France we needed to change her medicine as in the UK we were giving her a tablet once a day which was slow releasing, but in France they use a liquid which is fast acting and given twice a day. The change has not bothered her and her blood test came back as expected, so all is good. However she was feeling a little sorry for herself from having to give blood and the vet had put a blue bandage on her leg which was annoying her. This did not stay on there very long though, as she kept licking it until it fell off.

This afternoon we cleared out the Jeraboam room ready to start the decorating. We then ordered the paint as we have decided on the colour and tones and how we want the room to feel. We are able to collect the paint from a shop in Troyes, but not until the second week of January - but this gives us plenty of time to prepare the room. We were also thinking of adding some coving to the room to soften the edge, this is still up for consideration but currently we both think this would be the right choice - let’s wait and see.
