TCCLAC - Glad things went well in Court for you, and I hope that you got some sleep the night before..... I love the story about the toilet paper. I am the same! We have only an 18 pack and about 10 in the house and I am thinking we are getting low! I now only buy in 18/24 packs because then I don't get anxious about it. Hilarious. My BF said once to me she never buys toilet paper in bulk because people might think she has diahoerra. Poor Leigha, I can't imagine what it must be like to live in a family where she was under appreciated to that extent. I can't imagine how low her self confidence must be. Did she get a cake? What sort? Did she love blowing out the candles? Good luck for your lap which is coming up. Hope Ron has got his nurses out fit ready? Woot Woot.

Ferals - I love the photos of Sarabi - I think its a great idea to get two cats, for lots of reasons. First of all they can keep each other company when you are both out, second, they play with each other when you're all at home, and third, you and DH don't have to fight to get cat cuddles. I just adore my fur babies. Of course there is the litter ( not my job at the moment!) and the puke, and the vet visits because I am too viligant, but there are so many more gifts that they unwittingly give. I was woken this morning by a cat wanting a cuddle. Then I woke later to a cat curled up between my feet. Right now, a cat has climbed up on the lounge and is snuggled up to me. Perfect. Just perfect. And yesterday when I just felt inexplicably sad and was just crying, I went and laid next to one of the cats, who looked up from his snooze, stretched out one paw put it on my hand and started to purr loudly, and then went back to snoozing. It was such a simple gesture but gave me so much comfort. So my sweet, with two furbabies, you won't look back. BTW I have everything crossed for your weird symptoms. Cat cuddles!

Kit - I laughed so hard when you recounted the story of your George falling into the toilet and being blue from the toilet water! Hilarous. You must have just laughed so hard. He didn't get out and run like a mad thing through the house did he? That would have been funny, except you
would have had to clean it up.

Mildez - sweetie. I am thinking of you. It sounds weird, but somehow, after you move past the milestone of your EDD, things are different. Its not like a magic wand type of moment, but more as you pointed out, something you have been wanting to avoid has passsed. The dread can often be worse than the day itself. I am sorry that your DH is going away.

Is there anyone that you trust not to hover and crowd you in but who can be with you over the weekend? You are right, its better not to be alone. I will be thinking of you, especially over the next few days and keeping you and your angel close to my heart. Love to you.

Bons - hmm a manicure. I don't reckon it would get noticed either, but if you want to feel a bit spec, go ahead! Maybe the boy will surprise us all and notice!

Hello to all my other special friends - Murray, Crafty, MillyD, Ionna, Possum. Alice, Saffy, T Hopes, Loops, Reet, Jenna ( glad you got some pain relief from the hospital but sorry about AF- hope you are resting up) Porhce ( you've been quiet – all ok), Ami, Sunbeam, ScaryPinkFairy – thinking of you and sending you cat cuddles.

Mathews Mum - thankyou for thinking of me when you have so much to think about at the moment. I really do appreciate it. I am so heartbroken for you and your emby. I wish I could make it better for you, I really do. Sending you a big cat hug and purr ( and coping you are not allergic).

AFM - feeling much more my old self today after being quite weepy yesterday. Maybe I just needed some extra cat cuddles? On an aside, I am in the throes of my second ever known bout of thrush. Not too bad in terms of symptoms but lots of itching. Anyway, have been using the “applicator” for two nights now. Wish I had a funny story to tell, but I have nothing. Usually inner health plus works for me at keeping it at bay, but not at the mo. I can't stand the smell of the VJ after the cream is in there. Yucko!
