    Sorry FFF hope I'm not stealing your job ;) lol
  • Thank you Doc, CW and CM. My OP clearly touched a lot of you, I knew some of you have lost a parent in recent months and for a while I was reticent about posting, not wanting to be disrespectful to any of you or your angels. Just want to say though that sharing this has helped me gain a little clarity, not sure Im ready to make any big decisions, but there is a little clearing in the woods now. Thank you for letting me be me! x

    The "Merry Widows" are taking my dad to the hospital today, I will go tonight so at least I dont have to see him today.

    As an aside my mum puss, Hope, who I have selfishly allowed to have 2 sets of kittens has gone to the vets today (along with Alfie-Moon, the little blackie with the kinky tail from her last litter - adorable!) to be neutered. With a human baby joining this chaos in the new year it wouldn't be fair on Hope to allow her to be produce more fur-babies. Ive always found good homes for her offspring and have the luxury of having kept two (one from each litter) and watching another 2 grow up (my friend had two). They have been my nature's prozac! Hope has been a lovely mum puss, its been a privilege and an honour, but I think the time has come for her to have some quality of life and "me" time. Am thinking of them both this morning too, as they hated car journey this morning. Much howling and wailing and that was before we got to the end of the road.

    boohiss to Asda! how dare they fix their wonderful glitch. Glad I got some pears yesterday, loads of johnsons products to see baby Luca though to puberty, lol, cereal and 24kg of Iams in the shed. Im pleased with my haul, although of course would have loved this to have gone on and on and on and on...

    love and hugs back to you all x
    Love, through the trees, past the sky, beyond the northern lights; and I won't let go. May your soul and spirt fly sweetheart x

    My alphabet-girls are with me every step of the way x

    FFF & CW - it does work (oops got me knicker twisted here thought you guys were talking about printing apg, then realised you were talking about glitch shopping - I think the "elite" will be glad that they can have their leave me alone thread back), I have just printed out all of my 4 receipts. I think they just shorten the input by typing barcode all info will be prefilled. Nothing to worry about.;)

    Am waiting for DD2 to come back from school before we leave for York.

    ps : its a good job I did not bother with all those glitches mine was a proper shop with moccy back of course.

    I have had my Poppy shih tzu spayed a week ago (monday 24/9) BW scolded me :D she said I was selfish:eek: she said poppy could have given birth to little puppies & she could have 1 of poppy's baby:D I did it because I want her to have better life & disease free.

    If I want another poppy I can always go & find her twin sister who is not far away. Poppy is my family 1st dog ever & I want her to have the best of everything.:D

    Feel for you MAGS - hugs from me too! I can't be doing with selfish behaviour - life's too short as CM said.
    We've still got a DAIL in hospital - it's been about 10 weeks now, still in pain, wish they sort her out soon...

    Been to M's, got a few bits and 4 tins of Heinz5, used MOC no problem - my favourite SA put them through on SS for me. She's always amazed by my coupons :rotfl:
    If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try - oh bu99er that just cheat :D
