Thanks everyone.
AS you all know it was with a very heavy heart I said goodbye to my lovely J.
It was hard, made harder by the current arrangements.
The vet was lovely, & I held my wee boy til the end.
IT was horrid coming home without him & it has been a strange weekend.
Mr N has been looking for him & is off his food.
He is going for a health check next week prior to being groomed so will see that goes.I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.

What a year it has been.
Cafe has just reopened a couple of days a week for takaway.
The algate at the loch is particularily bad this year.
DS's GF has made a lovely wee video of J & J which you have probably seen on FB.
It was so lovely of her.I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.

Really sorry to hear about your lovely cat, master J, as you know I lost big old furry boy a few months ago and it never gets easier to let them go. I have missed his companionship during lockdown very much. He's one of a series of older cats we have ended up taking in for various reasons and it hurts every time they die but I console myself with thinking that they had a good life, lots of love and attention and were very much cared about as have yours been
. Thinking of you xx 6 -
I have done nothing this weekend apart from potter & read.
I did a wee spot of cleaning in the conservatory.
Now watching Alex Booker : Disability & Me.
He is going a trip down memory lane & it is upsetting me.
The wonderful hospital I spent so much time in is long gone~~along with all my notes.I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.

I suspect I will at some point or one will turn up, have always had a cat or two during the last 47 years so it feels strange being without. I'd quite like a dog as well but couldn't while I'm working in case I ever have to go back to working in the City again!beanielou said:

Sending you lots of love and hugs, saying goodbye is so so hard, and in these very uncertain times even harder, I feel.As a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or
What does the saying say.... When life hands you lemons, make lemonade
Or as my Mum would say, brush yourself down, tomorrow is another day or
Fake it, to you Make It
