    Hello everyone. Just breezing through again as we're going out to dinner in a wee while.

    Kedi-Gato and hubby are off back home tomorrow so we have to leave here about 9am to take them to the airport. The near-on month has gone quickly.

    Sorry to hear your news, macleaf. It must have been a shock!

    Anytime Macleaf. It often helps to talk about these things,and I know there are plenty of supportive members on here who can offer any advice you all may need at this time.Just try to keep your chin up,it will all come right in the end,though it may not look that way at the moment.I expect it will get a lot tougher before it gets better [​IMG] [​IMG]

    [​IMG] Sorry to hear of your troubles Macleaf & Ann.. There are no easy answers to these problems, I know... All you & Ann can do I think, is be the "rocks" for the poor little mites & the sons to hang on to & hopefully you will all come out the otherside not too battered & bruised... We are all here to listen if you need an ear to have a moan in.... ;)

    Macleaf, so sorry to hear your bad news. I can well sympathise having had problems in that area earlier in the year when grand-daughter's husband up and left saying he had decided he didn't want to be married any longer!
    So with 3 little ones (5years, 3years and 3 months old) they were evicted from their house, as he hadn't been paying the mortgage, and put into a hostel. We have all been devastated and trying to help as you do.

    Things are just starting to get together again for her now and she is setting up home in a council house.

    Hope things sort out soon for your family Macleaf.

    Morning MF

    Still no frost for us,the cars are clean,though it is freezing again...just put on some washing so will hang that out later..
    They are having the firework display in our village tomorrow night,so we will have lots of bangs for an hour or so..I think some have their displays on the 4th and some wait until the 5th.

    Our Tina used to terrified each year until her hearing went,so it didn't affect her,but if we sneezed she would run a mile...
    We shall be keeping the cats in though...
    Just off to make some porridge and a cuppa [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Hi Gogs yes had my porridge and cuppa and then went to watch the sunrise.I was just saying to wildflower we did get a frost,but it was only light,though it is freeeezing out there.
    Got loads of ironing to do today and some housework so everywhere is nice for the weekend.

    Wildflower I hope everything does ok for your daughter and she gets lots of support form everyone who loves her.As you say sometimes you are better off on your own
