8th year on Hive Happy Birthday to me 🎂 🎁 🎊 Got a lot on this year. 🐕 🐶 ❤️

OMG I can't believe I have just missed my 8th birthday with Hive, 8 full years being here, I didn't think I would last a month. It's been a challenge and I've learned so much plus gained a little extra to spend. I joined Steemit first before we moved to here, I loved those years, I had quite a few friends that have disappeared since moving. Hive isn't the same. Hopefully I get few more years on here, we will have to see.

It's non stop here at the moment getting the kitchen cleared completely as we want the electrics renewed, the whole kitchen skimmed and painted plus a brand new floor before they start fitting the kitchen. There's also a massive change to the kitchen as we have designed it based on being a shell, we told them what we wanted then they measured up then said if we can have it. Once the kitchen is finished it's going to look amazing and have more order to it. We have also thought about us getting older so no bending for ovens etc, everything is in a new place that's more efficient for us.

We are also having a discussion about getting another dog, we lost Geordie last December, it was horrible finding him on the kitchen floor, I cried for days and still have tears as I miss my little man so much.

We have a big problem, my youngest Pup Luna has really bad separation anxiety, it's under control at the moment as when we go out she still had Mika to play with but Mika is getting on so how will Luna be once she's in her own.

We have to decide what we are going to do but having 3 dogs again is going to be hard work. We have decided we aren't getting another puppy as they are too much work so thought a rescue dog would be best hopefully around the same age as Luna so they can grow older together. Luna doesn't like being left, she knows something is happening in days we go out, she stops eating, follows us around moaning to herself, it breaks my heart leaving her but somedays I have no choice, she would prefer to be with someone 24/7. When we return she cheers up follows us for the next few hours then when we sit down she will fall asleep on my knee, I honestly think she doesn't sleep when we are out waiting for us to come home. I think we will have to look around the dog shelters, I'm dreading it as I will want them all then leaving them will upset me.

Thank you for visiting 💟💟
