@wandeljw,
Hey ((((jw))))
me too also! I wonder if he goes looking for me... or he's found someone else to love him whilst I'm away, I don't think so tho. He's a real MaMa's Boy and he doesn't take to strangers, unlike Murphy, who is a complete and utter tart and will snuggle up around anyone for a bit of TLC - he's all fur and chirruping mews, he purr-sings constantly

Kitty Cat kinda keeps himself to himself and is the strong and silent fella out of the two - so could be he just goes off until he knows I'm home. He's been sprawled out across me whilst I was resting and is following me around now not letting me out of his sight. He does love his MaMa
So pleased he's back - he does worry me when he goes off.
As for the dawgs - well Maddie is just a little heap, she's a total floosy and craves every bit of attention - but Scooby is getting to be a poor 'ole boy - all cranky and creaky - his 'ole bones bother him, except for when he's herding Maddie up - then he thinks he's a puppy and struggles to stand up after he's been in sheepdawg mode. Poor 'ole fella - he can't even get in the car anymore.
I tell ya - it's a blooming menagerie here!
How are you jw... and how is wee Annie and the big kids? How is she enjoying school? I did see CJ's thread and read about her learning Chinese - clever wee gal you got yourself there - beautiful pic... love her smile - she is a princess. All going well in your world?
OK - I gotta go get some fuel - my tummy is cranky too. Gonna try and get to look at my Eire pics later on - still haven't got round to doing that with one thing and another, leave alone catching up on what's been going on around the threads and need to go out in a bit. That time thing.... not enough of it and I'm oh so verra tarrrrd. <yawn>
Tulip - if you get online - have been leaving you messages all over the place - how you doing gal???????? Will have mobile signal a little later so call me if you wanna/can talk - if not, will call you again tomorrow. Hoping you are feeling MUCH better and all is OK. xx
