    Hiya
    Just popped on to say a big thankyou for all your kind wishes. She had a lot longer than we expected but we never thought she'd go downhill so quickly. I'm just thankful it happened when we were here and not away with the caravan. She was a very special lady and we were lucky to have her and her madam-ish little ways. I've never, at the age of 40, not had a cat so it's VERY strange. Saying that, spotty dog keeps whacking me over the leg with her plaster cast so it's not like we're alone!!

    Thanks again for your kindness.

    Speak soon xxxxx

    My goodness I am flying today! (Shattered icon, anyone?) Pit stopping only to feed baby and DD attempting to help, bless her. Am nearly there tho! Think DD and I are going to go out in the garden for a good 45 mins or so before her dinner, as feeling a bit guilty we haven't done much "playing", tho she seems to enjoy "pitching in".

    I am sorry to be SO THICK but I am wondering...
    is the heart list (our list) for all week or to be done in one day? (ie one thing off it per day)

    I think Pigpen's one is a weekly challenge still, but a decluttering one.

    You don't qualify for soappie's 'Nursery slope' list, as you're perfectly capable of doing the whole of Pigpen's proper list :p - the idea is that the short personal list replaces the big, scary experienced flyer list!
