    Your maw is a force of nature, can’t blame her for getting away while she can. She won’t like having her wings clipped when she has her op. 

    Sorry to hear about your friend, it’s very good of you to visit her and provide support but don’t forget you need some downtime.

    She is certainly a force of nature & a hard act to follow. 
    I’m trying so hard to have boundaries but it can be hard. 
    It’s funny when I walk along as Mustard toddles along too. He waits for me to come home again. 
    I sometimes take the car. I’m waiting for him to follow the car one day.

    My mom’s cat used to follow her to the shops. The times she had to take him back home. Cats can be more faithful than people think.

    He certainly is faithful to me. Sleeping on the chair at the top of me  & snoring away 😹

    My grandma's cat used to know which bus she was on and meet her at the stop.  Keep going @beanielou, you're fab.  That quote re being the storm is spot on.  Love Humdinger xx
