LP - poor little puss! Make sure you do take her to the vet sometime over the next couple of days, my former wonderdog Beags was prone to tail problems and when it swells up it can affect their nerves in their backs, making them quite sick. Sorry not what you wanted to hear. The painting sounds excellent, will you branch out into eBay land?

Cally, enjoy your packing (LOL at extra stuff!) and your early night. I'll be required to stay up late for the ILs but that's no biggie after all the stupidly late nights I pulled in Dec, sewing! Hoping for a sleep in or a nap tmrw though!
