Blushing!!!! I am sure we all try, as best we can, to support each other. x

Life is a journey of learning and knowing thyself, we learn to know we are strong and powerful free thinking human beings, sometimes we forget that, but its good to be reminded.

happy day Bernice, Toci and all x x

Carrotts. It hasn't been a good year at all, but your wise words are of comfort. The latest upset is that we will have to get rid of our cat. She has become totally dirty in the house, so much so we have to confine her to one room. We cant cope with a dirt tray so ...read your words of advice.

Me again, forgot to mention the mysterious plague of flies. As I write, I see loads of dead flies down the end of the room. We have used fly spray but need the experts to find out why.
