Just know you're not alone...something to make you smile: husband sorting 20yrs umpiring records, piles of them, all carefully year dated...I'm hysterical that he would actually keep them,cat leaps up and knocks whole lot onto the floor......🤣🤣🤣

I'm reassured by your comments that I'm not the only one to feel this way. A sense of complete and utter despair and no way back.

Dear Amanda; I think Betty needs lots and lots of cuddles at the moment, please give her and Colin as many as you can.

She looks so calm, happy and settled, eyes full of love and trust. Her whole demeanor is joyful to see. What an incredible job you and Sociable Dog have done- a much needed happy post this morning. Thank you.

If you can get hold of some merino and possum gloves from NZ, they are the softest, warmest gloves I've ever found. Even OH is converted- and wearing them.

I never read any Graham Greene- probably because my father said I should- but bought this last year and am now devouring all his books.
