    Evening all, sorry to hear so many of you are having a sad time, hugs to all esp Molly, Beemuzed and Marie-still hoping. Hi to all newbies and returners. DS cooked a lovely stir fry and I now have to wash up, then I have 23 stories to read and mark as it's SATs time for my littlies. They have all been really good and worked so hard which is amazing as they are only 6 and 7. Now we can start planning our Jubilee celebrations and make lots of bunting and crowns.
    Heard today that my niece is pregnant , she got married last year, so now I'm planning another baby quilt. i'm the eldest girl in my family and that makes 2 of my younger sisters who will be Grandmas before me.:j feel I'm far too young to be a Grandma yet but it does sound enjoyable. Mind you Great Aunt actually sounds worse!!!!!!
    Have a good evening all.:)

    Evening All

    Big hugs to Beemuzed and your family, try to think of the good times.

    Molly - Sorry to hear of squeaky's passing, he/she was obviously well loved and had a good life. Let your son cry, it shows he is a caring and loving human being.

    Hope the dog recovers well from its op, mine had a similar op and was fine.

    Had a bad day at work, had the dreaded meeting and apart from having a blubber half way through nothing much was sorted. Boss is a very headstrong woman who seems to enjoy watching other folk suffer and likes to tell the odd story or 2. Still, it's over and I hope I get another job soon.

    Put the washing out when I got home and it's more or less dry, I could see the big black cloud approaching but the wind was so strong it only took an hour to dry. Spag Bol for tea which was very nice, having a glass of wine to chill tonight.

    Take care, Wednesday tomorrow so nearly half way to the weekend. XX

    Molly...so sorry to hear about Squeaky...special thoughts for DS.

    Some of my very kind MSE friends have put Kerry on Facebook...just in case....seems fitting that Thunder is also in the picture, as they were great friends, DD4 found him dead on the road the morning after Kerry went missing, so he is now at the bottom of the garden in the pets graveyard.

    Sleep well, stay safe all
