KonMari

Another early start (3.30 am) and then Polly became restless a couple of hours later, and at 6 am anyone passing may well have raised an eyebrow at two people in the garden in their dressing gowns trying to get urine samples from two Westies, using plastic takeaway boxes. Mr DA did well with Basil's sample but Polly saw me coming and stopped mid-stream and crossed her legs, refusing to do any more, resulting in just a couple of drops landing in the box. Fortunately, I managed to get a little more before I took her to the vet for her toenail clipping appointment with the new nurse. The upshot of it all is that Polly's increased thirst and urination are due to the steroids she's on for her cough, and Basil doesn't, as I had thought, have a urine infection, which means his kidneys are probably deteriorating, so we're probably going to get a blood test to check it out.

In other news,  having been introduced by a friend to the wonders of Marie Kondo, I've had a go at her trouser folding technique and - ta da! - this is how my jeans/jeggings drawer now* looks!  This is just the beginning...


*I thought of posting the 'before' picture as well but was too ashamed of it!
