Yes we must have another picnic, last year's was great even though we all parked up in different areas of the park!!

My right hand is full of blisters because of the fact that I've been putting Ikea furniture together in my brother's apartment. Robert came round to install the electricity and while mom and my brother went shopping, I put six chairs, five tv furnitre blocks and a bathroom furniture thingie for his towels.

Since February, he rents a nice apartment for a very reasonable price just down the street from where we live.

I'm not in that stage yet as I still have my car loan to pay until January of next year. On the bright sides, I'm now earning more and have quite a clear view of the amount of money I should put aside to buy everything. LOL!

Oh gross blisters. I'm sorry. *beats up the evil ikea furniture* I've been doing nothing this week because it's my midterm break. It's been delightful but I wish I could hang out with my friend more because my mother is driving me up a wall. *pulls hair out* Oh well. Can't really complain really.

Well, I had the operation on my foot this morning and am currently at home al bandaged up with my slave er .. I mean SD waiting on me.
I'm bored already - I have to be off work for 6 weeks and have no idea what to do with myself!

My foot is still anesthetized at the moment so I'm not in any pain, but apparently, once that wears off I'm going to be in agony for several days

Good to know your operation went well, Lise.

I have a hectic few days over the next two weeks. Lois is busy preparing for her end of term show at her acting school. Finley seems to have been invited to every party in Surrey and it's his birthday on the 27th too!

We finally got around to booking our flights to the States. We'll be there for nearly three weeks, visiting Florida and Washington DC.

ArrHarr JIm Lad!
Hope you don't get too much pain. Just poke SD with the crutches and get him to take you lots of places!

BTW Didn'tw e used to have a Birthday list somewhere on here? I need to check it out.

Yes I was looking for the birthday list too the other day.
I think yours is on the 29th April Sue if that's what you were after

I have a mini list in my diary which goes like this:

Row: 23rd January
Lise & GHD: 13th April
Sue: 29th April
Ann: 20th August
Lizzie: 20th December

I usually manage to remember the months of the birthdays but rarely the actual date itself.

In fact, I'm going to a secret birthday party this evening. One of our pipers is turning 18 and just like they did for his brother, his parents have organized a little gettogether. Unfortunately, four of our pipers won't be able to attend so it'll be a small welcoming tune he'll be getting. I'm currently installing winamp and learning all about it as apparently, I'll be the DJ for this evening. I've already gone and helped to install the music equipment and my laptop will be used for musical purposes.

Hope your foot will heal well, Lise!

I'm a little behind but I hope your foot gets better!!

Hey Sob buddies! Sorry I have been away for a while.. I just get SO busy! I'm perfectly fine.. just away with the fairies.. obviously for most of the time! LOL..

Thanks for your email Sue.. nice to know you haven't forgotten me.. LOL.. despite my reclusiveness..

Lise.. I hope your foot feels better really SOON! golly 6 weeks.. I think you may go mad with bordom! I was off my foot for about 2 weeks when I did it in a few years ago.. that was enough.. Maybe Ollie and I can come visit you during Easter holidays?

My cats are taking up all my time.. well.. I am taking up all my time being with them.. I think I might be.. shock.. gasp.. obsessed!!

I took my two boys, Homer and my kitten Dylan to a cat show last weekend.. They both got firsts in their open classes.. Dylan got best of Breed too.. and some seconds and a first in his side classes. Homer got two thirds in his side classes, which was very good as they were big classes..

Dylan is apparently a VERY good cat and my friends at the show all told me I was robbed of best in show...! Which I think would have been a bit too much too soon! The cat who won was in the cage next to Dylan and I don't think he was as good.. but then I wouldn't really would I! LOL.. however I was very pleased with my little boys.. Dylan in particular seemed to have a really fun time.. and enjoyed every minute.. he was so relaxed and enjoyed many cuddles with various aunties at the show.

Here are a few photos..


Me and my baby... Note look of obsession on my face! LOL..


Dylan and his rosettes..


Homer and his


My relaxed kitten! LOL..

Love my babies... didn't they do well?

That would be nice. I did post an invite for all the Sobbers (and children) in the 'My 40th Birthday' thread somewhere

Your new kitten was obviously born to be a star Row, what great photos, and a very proud mummy by the looks of things

What clever cats!!!

I could tag along in the Easter hols if you like Row as long as it's before the 14th as I shall be panicking about our holiday by then.

Congrats on your brilliant cats Row! That's fantastic.

Wonderful results, Row. Congacats!

I went to solo drumming and mini band competitions yesterday. Our band didn't participate but our two allied bands did. They both won in all the grades and their solo drummers took all the prices in every category they particpated in. It's very unusual as the competition was in the Netherlands and they usually prefer to grant their own bands the victory. Our groups were deserved winners though, they played very well.

Lizzie

Congratulations Row and the cats!
