  • My name is Sue..................

    Johnny Cash growling away , candles burning brightly, cat snoring, clock just clonked 11pm - lots of chocolate and goodies left over from busy committee meeting - and ONE WHOLE HOUR TO MYSELF BEFORE I HIT THE SACK.

    Tomorrow's worries are on 'hold' - feeling contented and pleased with life - so what if I am broke, and the loo seat came off! I am SO fortunate and have SO much in my life that I am grateful for! If only we could bottle positivity -and take a swig when the feeling gets low - why are some folks happy with very little and others have so much and are quite at odds with themselvres? As a therapist I should know the answer to this and of course - I DO ! its just that you cant GIVE it to someone else!!!

    I So want to 'post' some pictures on my blog - I will do a bit of self larnin over the weekend and see if I can figure it out!!!!!!!!!!

    Sending my positive waves out to you blog person - thanks for bein there!

  • chocolate, chocolate and ----- yea more chocolate!

    Hello friends!

    Sorry its been a while - bacvk from babysitting AND a week in Cornwall ...........

    Years since Ive been in a caravan - and on the whole the week had some happy moments - or is it COOL? Best of all was the Eden Project - I wandered at will and the weather was just about ok - HOW I enjoyed being in the Continental dome and the Tropical one too - fabulous plants, interesting displays - AND THAT CHOCOLATE - well - I wish I could have a supply posted to me - it made the sun shine!!! I watched the guy demonstrate where it comes from and how its harvested and made into the FAB stuff mm

    Polperro was delightful - I wandered up quaint old streets where fishermen and smugglers used to live - right to the top of the harbour wall - and in a little resting place in tne sun I - yea you guessed - ATE some chocolates -HAND MADE ONES from a shop down below - they were YUMMY YUMMY !

    Looe at night was enjoyable - sitting outside in the cool evening air with a lovely m HOT CHOCOLATE! Just some pleasant moments with my sister and her little dog - early morning walks in fine drizzle - and once or twice - that special early morning SUN! (just a couplke of squares of the dark stuff to sustain us!!)

    Journey back was something else - roads like traffic-lava it took 6 hours in all -and I almost ran out of chocolate sandwiches - no really!

    Ah well - the cat's back and I cant imagine EVER putting him in a cattery for a week again - it was a posh one but he really has come back the worse for wear - nervy and disoriented - unsure if he wants to be out, in or both! Poor Moto - he even left me a chocolate present on the lounge carpet - something he has NEVER done - but THAT one you can KEEP!!!!!!!

    Hope you are all ok and seeing life in all its richness!- I guess tomorrow I will try to get into your blog and see what youve been up to since ----long time ago!

    God bless you and yours

    Marion

    now where did I put that last bar of..................

  • oh to be a cat

    There he is blissfully sleeping on my couch- a picture of utter comfort and relaxation - this splurge of gingery and creamy stripes - white booteed and pink-nosed pussycat is Moto. My moggy. Collected him half way up the M42 - hence his name!

    Seems I have exchanghed my oh so new- found freedom for that "now how can I go and leave him" feeling............

    Some cats you can just ignore (or they ignore you): some are independent and are mostly creatures of the night - sleeping the daylight hours away, and some are couchy-lovey-I-belong-to-you cats......

    Moto is a breed of his own. He likes: sleeping sleeping on my bed - especially when I am in it!!! AND staying out all night
    only eating his food cold from the fridge AND eating out (ANYWHERE ELSE!)
    being totally attached and constantly purring AND ignoring me completely
    behaving so beautifully like a good cat AND terrorizing the neighbourhood

    Consequently THIS cat is not just for Christmas - he is who he is and somehow gets me adapting around him - well, luvvy theres changes ahead!!!

    I AM NOT LEAVING THE WINDOW OPEN ANY MORE AFTER 11PM
    I AM NOT PANDERING TO YOUR CUISINE TASTES
    I'N NOT BUYING YOU ANY MORE TOYS TO BE IGNORED
    I AINT APOLOGIZING TO THE NEIGHBOURS WHEN YOU GET IN THEIR CATFLAPS
    I REFUSE TO TAKE YOU UP THE SHOPS IN THE BACK OF THE CAR
    AND
    I AM PUTTING YOU IN A CATTERY WHEN I GO ON HOLIDAY!!!!!!

    SO THERE!!

    In the meantime Im off for three days now to grandchild sit - and I shall TRY not to let the guilt last too long up the M3 - think I need some Cat Therapy!!!

    Bye Moto....ah............bless..........
