Your cross stitch pictures are beautiful Whiff. It's lovely to have a creative outlet isn't it. Cross Stitch for you, knitting for Pixie, is it you hugs that writes? And for me singing. Yogin has her yoga which is great for the body and the mind.
Wednesday must have been a difficult day for you Whiff, seeing your dear friend with her grief which will still be so raw, and bringing back the pain of your own loss, which like it is with estrangement, never really goes away.
We had home serve cover in our previous house because there was a manhole cover on our front garden, so any issues with that pipe would have been our responsibility. Thankfully we never needed to put the cover to use, but the peace of mind having the cover brought was certainly worth it.
Telling yourself over and over again that if your EAC can't tell you what the problem is then it must be their problem, is so important, especially in the early days hugs.
Bitterly cold here as it is everywhere. So cold that for the last 3 mornings Mr. S. has had to carry our little poodle for at least half of the dogs morning walk because he gives up and sits down.
We think it's because it's too cold for his little paws. Thank goodness they have their jumpers and warm coats that go over them to keep them warm.
When he brings them back and I take them off, I can feel how warm their little bodies are.
Went to the pictures last night to see 'Moonage Daydream', a film about Bowie which was brilliant. It was so well done that I couldn't help thinking that if he was still alive, and had made the film himself, he'd have done it in exactly the same way.
Rather treacherous walking to and from the cinema so Mr. S. held on to me just in case.
Hope your boosters go OK today hugs.
