...Fun was still had: found a photo of me and the new dad (then aged 2) so I sent it to his wife  that was good.  And I went to stand in the garden, and Half Grown Kitten came over to say hello, that was good too.

Haha - every so often my favorite Aunty from across the pond scares up a photo no one knows existed & scans and sends it over via e-mail.  It always leads to lovely memories & tales to be told  about whichever era the picture is from!

How sweet to see the kitten

That's exactly what happened  turned out my sister pinpointed the day - she'd rented out a trampoline in the local sports centre for a couple of hours for a birthday, I stayed over to help out.  My memory is *that* is of standing at the edge of a trampoline lifting very excited 4 year olds on and off for about a million years    sitting on the floor and reading a book to a 2 year old was a doddle in comparison

It was!  I think the bottom of my garden is on it's route.  In fact, I think it may be a boy, I'm seeing it so regularly, they roam much further than the girls.  Purring is good, whatever it is 😽

Aw, lovely memories! How lovely that you've managed to pinpoint the exact day 😊😊

Karmacat

Yep, it was lovely!  

Another little victory today - all cards sent!  

Now it's the emails one or two of which are individual, the rest are like Christmas letters.  I *had* to write a letter for one of the last cards, elderly rellie in Yorkshire who has no email address - and my handwriting looked really, really dodgy 

Karmacat

Well, no emails written as per the post above, from 2 days ago.  My science/New Age buddy who moved to Glastonbury rang (from his hospital bed!  two weeks and counting!) and then yesterday I went to my sister's for my birthday lunch of incredibly rich food.  Loved it.  And I re-learned all her electrical and electronic doodads (switching the tv on can be complicated!) because it looks like I'm bunny-sitting in the New Year.  The professional is having a knee replaced, not heard anything to the contrary with omicron yet, so we're acting as if it's all happening.  Heaven only knows.

So, the emails are *today*, as is tidying up the office, because honestly it's so disrupted I can't use it for anything at all. It's going to take the whole day - if I'm lucky, it really is a state

You’ll feel better when it’s done!

A good concentrated tidy always makes everything feel better even if it is only a small corner!
