    Thanks both.

    Right yesterday I discovered during one of the many visits to the hospital I am at 40% increased risk of full stroke in the next month.

    My head has just gone again

    Stupid thing

    Plus points

    I discovered RuPauls Drag Race, it is one of the funniest things I have seen in ages.

    Seriously any programme that has the phrases such as
    The time has come for you to Lip Sync for your life
    and
    Your Beautiful, Talented and truly a Queen for all seasons, just not this one now Sashay Away

    needs to be watched.
    Mr T has gone on a girl hunt my OHs tablets have started to kick in so instead of flapping he has realised thats what Toms doing and is pretty calm.

    I shall try and tape it, just what I could do with!

    I so miss cat cuddles, I am getting seriously broody looking at your pics of Mr T. I don't miss the battle for the comfy chair, the war over food, the ambushes, litter trays, stray hairs...

    Who am I kidding? I am really missing cats.

    In your position I would be stressed out of my mind, but try and take it easy. Sending hugs.

    It might mean my OH and I haven't slept in the same room more than 3 times since we brought him home. I wouldn't be without him though.

    He's filled out now and his coat is so soft and shiny.

    Now bearing in mind he's middle aged should o have him castrated? He doesn't spray he knows where home is (and he's not leaving ta) hmmmm

    So
    Cooked, washed up, cleaned bathroom, done floors, walked dogs, brushed Tomcat, played with new catnip infused turkey bird toy thing with Tomcat, had a huge cuddle involving purring and dribble .

    What I think really needs to happen is for someone to come round, hold a gun to your head and make you rest!

    Take care of yourself. Remember, cats and dogs are supposed to really help with health. Those cuddles are lowering your blood pressure and that is your actual science.

    hugs

    I'd be exhausted with that lot, and I'm not ill. Is there anything on the cleaning front you can let slide for a bit (not a problem in this house!), or would a bit more clutter just stress you out more?

    Edit - I'm not entirely convinced by the pets as de-stressers theory. Although that may be more down to my choice of pets.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Not cleaning would stress me out I am pants at sitting still (as you can see)

    I agree with the not destressing Elsien Porky was in a foul mood last night which meant she kept launching herself at Laurs and getting a smack.

    Though the cuddles do help, Tomcats cuddles are soothing, Porkys are more forceful
