Good afternoon Lex, welcome form one cat lover another. I also live in happy co-habitation with my feline companion Lilly. We are in the North-East of Scotland and do not look forward to the next couple of days. I shall hibernate for the rest of the week. Fingers crossed everyone stays safe and the electric will stay connected Thankfully I have a multi fuel wood burner, so shall be cosy whatever the circumstances. All of you please stay safe and warm
love Alana and Lilly
You too Eddie and Poppy. I am certainly planning a couple of days hibernation, with the next storm arriving over the next few hours. Log burner is going and Lilly is already sound asleep. Oh to be a cat when it comes to the ability of sleeping. Can’t be long now before Sheila is back home. Hope she is enjoying her time with her Sister. Give her my love when you speak to her. Big hug for Mandy and all the little bundles of joy. Have a cosy evening Eddie
love Angie and Lilly xx
Glad to hear from you Alana. Hope the wind is not too severe at your place and no loss of power. Have a cosy few days with Lily
Eddie: Ho-e Many copes well with her 4th cycle. How many more does she has to have? how are you feeling nowadays? I often used to go to S Africa at the end of January for a couple weeks sunshine and warmth. So find this year particularly hard to cope with the bleak weather and chemo for life. But I a, now a lot more connected with Craig, my mum and friends. So that is very precious too.

Hi Alana,
Lilly looks lovely! The wind preps here are frightening. Schools closed, trains cancelled, never before had this based just on the warning (that I recall at least). I have a f2f GP appt at 2pm, really hoping it still goes ahead. My Tiki is very content napping warmly indoors, spent 2 hours sleeping on me this pm. Love it so much when she foes, she isn't a lap cat so it's extra special
Hope everyone gets through the weather okay.
Lex

Hello Stella, I am delighted that you sound more positive of late. Good for you my love. Lilly and I will have a cosy time for a few days. Got plenty of books to read, candles and charged all my led motion sensor light strips and power pack. Best of all still have an unopened Tin of Quality Street. What more can you ask for. You and Craig and Winston stay safe xx
love Alana and Lilly xxx
Hi Angie, thank you, Sheila, is having a lovely time, she's been with her sister to Tasmania and Melbourne, and will be home a week early, the end of Feb hopefully, as we're going to the Scilly's on March 7th, for the wedding and a break, and she would love to see the twins before we go, I will pass on your love to all the family, my friend,
love Eddie xx
Hi Stella, Mandy has had 4 cycles, with up to 6 more and thankfully is coping well, unbelievably well, and I'm doing ok, thank you, my friend.
I know it can be tough for many with the dull days and long nights, my partner finds it extremely difficult, so can understand how it affects you, so I'm sorry you didn't get to South Africa, but delighted it's allowed you to get closer to family and friends.
Eddie xx
Hi, Lex, stay safe tomorrow, both of you, and I hope your GP appointment goes ahead, and that's lovely to hear Tiki cuddled up on your lap, not being a big cuddle.
Eddie xx
