Hi,
just wanted to let those who know me, that my darling Bess had to be put to sleep yesterday. Very, very sad.

A canvas one can be got pretty cheaply on ebay if you keep your eye out. This would be one less angsty feeling about your home until you can afford what you want.
Sometimes it's ok to prioritise your needs.
That's very true...
I have good news - the dining table is gone!:j Buyer was very happy, I'm happy with the space. It's all good. Now to get rid of the sideboard...
Sorry to hear about your Bess, Byatt."Why, this is hell, nor am I out of it."0 -

Byatt xxxHugs. It's so hard to say goodbye, but TG we have the chance to end suffering for the animals we love.
Got rid of a pair of awfully 'molly' unworn sandals today, bought mail order. They are earmarked for a charity car boot.
Also out, various bits of underwear in a size I haven't been for some years and in styles for someone 10-20 years younger..
Plus DS has informed me he no longer wishes to eat potatoes. C. 6lbs of spuds rehomed to friend.
Sweet potatoes are acceptable and are one of A!di's Super 6 this week.3 bags in, 1 already used, with pork minute steaks, dusted with A!di's new hot n spicy marinade mix, used as a rub, YS asparagus and YS mange tout.

Oh my dear, I'm so sorry for your loss. Please look after yourself.
This poem was given to me 18 years ago when I lost my beloved Max. I don't know where it originally came from but I'm passing it on in the hope it might bring a little comfort to all who've lost loved pets.
If it should be…
If it should be that I grow frail and weak
And pain should keep me from my sleep
Then you must do what must be done
For this last battle can’t be won
You will be sad I understand
Don’t let your grief then stay your hand
For this day more than all the rest
Your love and friendship stands the test
We’ve had so many happy years
What is to come can hold no fears
Would you want me to suffer? So
When the time comes please let me go
Take me where my needs they’ll tend
Only stay with me to the end
And hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see
I know in time that you will see
It is a kindness that you do to me
Although my tail it’s last has waved
From pain and suffering I have been saved
Do not grieve it should be you
Who must decide this thing to do
We’ve been so close we two these years
Don’t let your heart hold any tearsS.P.C. 9 2016 No. 062 Banked £337.50

I am a bit of a lurker here, the hoarding is pretty much under control, but you good people keep me motivated:D
Just wanted to say commiserations to Byatt, it is hard when we loose one of our 4 legged besties.
