Meet Barney

Meet Barney...our newest family member! Unfortunately he's not ours. My sister and her husband bought him on Saturday. Fortunately they live about 2 minutes away so we get to see him all the time. He's soooo cute. He's a pedigree Shi Tzu, just 8 weeks old. You'd think he was a new baby or something the way we've all been going on! So you can imagine who we spent most of the weekend with!

On a completely different note....apparently today was supposed to be the most depressing day of the year. Some one from Cardiff university (Dr Arnall) has come up with a worst day formula which is ([W + (D-d)] x TQ) ÷ (M x NA). (W: weather, D: debt, d: money due in January pay, T: time elapsed since Christmas, Q: time since failed New Year's resolutions to quit smoking, drinking etc, M: general motivational levels, NA: the need to take action.)

I must say it hasn't been true for me. I've had a great day, mostly because i had a day off work seeing as i worked on Saturday. So, i got up later, i went to the gym, came home and had lunch and then went to visit my friend Laura who had a gorgeous baby girl last week (she is just 5lb 8 oz and was so delicate looking and lovely). I spent a few hours with them, came home, made a rather tasty spaghetti bolognaise and am now planning on chilling out in front of the tv and doing some stitching. So Dr Arnall, today was a great day, how do you explain this??
