Ok I am running about a week to 2 behind ...I have a lot of pain in my left wrist due to "Tendon " inflammation
Im on drugs ..and pain killers and have to see a Physio ...but at least I can use it again

I am still working ...but I have to be careful and not overdo it ...and no knitting or crochet ..that makes it much much worse
Its a beautiful day ..and I marvelled at the colours when we went out
blue blue sky and green fields and the yellow of the rapeseed flowers ..its just been a perfect day ...Oh yeah paid for my mew Mini Riz too ..I just had to have another ..love the tan one
well we went to collect Sam today , and here is is
Zack jumped on him straight away ..and we are having to be watchful ..Zack will be 10 weeks Tuesday and he is HUGE next to tiny Sam ,
Sam is timid and so far much quieter ...Maddie has taken to him straight away
She has really surprised me ..she has gone so loving since Stan passed

Pete made an amazing wire screen to put up the french doors, so we can have some air as its so hot ... the sun shone in . the cats all lay in it ..we had ice lolly and the foot ball droned away in the back ground ...and its is beautiful

a far cry form how lousy the beginning of the month was

Im trying to get a picture ,of Zack ..that is him ..his personality ...this sums him up!
I get the camera and he charges at me
Yesterday he learnt how to growl ...today he was spitting ...whilst skidding up and down my kitchen , playing
I had to take him to the Vets today , he has a pooly tummy , bless him

Vets given him the once over ..and thinks its just the change of food and worms ..so he has been de-wormed ..sprays for fleas and now he is sleeping
cant believe how much he has grwon in a few days

Production is at an all time low this weekend
when I could go get my Zack ...a week early than I thought

but I am so inlove with my little boy
he loves hands and toes ..so I am trying to teach him now to play with ribbon and a mouse that squeeks ...so far its working ...and he loves cuddles

so he is actually getting me to sit and relax a little ...

I miss my old Stan so much ...Zack is certainly keeping us all on our toes ..now to dye some wigs whilst he is asleep

Zack ...

Zack

I love my Husband ...

he has always said when STAN went I couldn't have another cat ...but I feel as though Im missing something ...Maddie and I have go closer ..she has always been Rosies cat ...but I guess were both missing Stan ,

so Pete told me to go ahead and start looking ..but I couldn't have a black one ...so I dug in my heals ...and this is Zack ..his full name ..Zachary Binks

he isnt old enough yet ...but he is 6 week old Maine Coone x

and a handfull ...

I cant believe he is mine ...Im dreading it ..in a way ..he loves running up legs !

I have to kitty proof the house ...and get little tray and close all the windows for a while ..

he wont be home for a few weeks yet ..and I cant wait

Imp ..my red bracken

Im so glad he has arrived ..I LOVE this boy
the reed is gorgeous ..love the girls too ...but Bracken is so HOT ! red

I had the tiny brownie arrive last week and Ippo today ...so Im going to take some pictures ....it will take my mind of Stan a bit

its so lonely without him in the say ...
Maddie is still sulking about ..she keeps looking for him ..and wont eat

sigh ...

lousy week

we had a wonderful time in Hey ..when I came home Stan was sulking ..he hated me going away ..always did ...over the next week we noticed him getting slower and slower ..untill he didnt have the energy to walk ...or eat ...
the same time ..I had a HUGE Bobobie Bill topay ..all my limmited editions to pay for ...and Lloyds ..bless them ...I hope they fester ..decided I didnt need an overdraft on my new bussiness account ..this is AFTER the interview at my local branch were they promised me the earth and more ...if I didnt use my PayPal and credit card and went with them ...now they tell me ..when I have a monster bill ..and another due in a few weeks ..I couldnt have a bloody overdraft

this is after waiting 3 weeks for a return phone call ....so they called to tell me after I had settled my bill ...by selling my soul and wacking up my Card ....
So I told them ...to stick their account ...NEVER take their advice ...still angry ..still smarting and very broke ..my Cat went down hill ...so with the last of our Holiday money ...I got Stan to the Vets May 1st .....
its still to painfull ..and too raw ...but an hour later ..they called me with the worse news ever
they had found he had a huge shadow in his lungs ...and blood tests had confirmed the worse ...I dashed up to him ..and gave the consent ..he died in my arms ...and my heart broke

I bought him home ...when I walked into the front door the phone rang ...and it was UPS ...with a £150.00 Import charge ...I dont think the poor girl knew what was going on ...I broke down in tears ...appologised ,she has to wait 5 mins untill I stopped crying ....

what a bloody shit day ...
I got the post out on the Saturday ...its Rosies birthday today ...
I never thought I could feel this sad over a Pet , but Stan was my shadow ..and Im missing him so much
Maddie is pineing ...she is my other cat ...but very much my daughters ...and its horrible :(
