Here I think we all know there's nothing to be done about the snow, so we just barge on. This year's amount is amazing though. And there's more coming down! I swept the car off to take a fuzzy to the vet today; roads were slushy, and it's cold, but kitty Jake was so good. He never even cried. But I do see a lot of buried cars and wrecks--people just have to take more care behind the wheel, and maybe take a cat with them to talk to. :-)

I'm glad your brother made it. Is he going to stay long? It's nice to have visitors over the holidays. No one's visiting here--everyone's too far away--but we have plans to go out a lot, and to give the kitties their presents, which is always entertaining. And we're going to watch a lot of DVD's!

I think Mom would approve.

Anyway, Merry CHristmas to you and Dickens, enjoy all your company and all the good meals and treats, and hug Dickens for me--and yourself!

Oh, my manager called Saturday. It seems someone contacted him with great interest in the series after seeing the materials at one of our already interested paties' offices. My manager seems to think this might come together very quickly! Perhaps the New Year might start off with a bang.

Have fun!

Over a metre of snow and you still keep going. We are such wimps over here. On Friday woke up to a few inches of snow. First the supermarket shopping delivery cancelled. Then the doctor's surgery cancelled my appointment. Schools had closed for the day. Public transport wasn't running. Everything came to a standstill. I managed to get the local shop to deliver some basics. My brother was due this weekend and I wondered if he would be able to get here. In the end he did get here and we even went out (in the snow!) Saturday night for a really nice meal. Twas good to see him and have a good talk and catch up as well. I'm glad the snow didn't prevent his visit.

The rest of the holidays I've got people visiting on Christmas Eve Boxing day Saturday and on the Monday so will be doing quite a lot of cooking. Apart from that hope to stay in in the warm and watch the holiday specials on TV and generally eat drink and be merry!

Really hope you enjoy yourself with your sister and your cat family. I know you have got sadness as well but try to relax and enjoy as much as you can

Take care
Jill.

So sorry to hear about losing your Mom. It's a shock even when you are expecting the loss. I'm glad you have got your writing to help through this difficult time.

Also glad to hear the cats and kittens are doing well. It's a shame they have to get old like your Jake. I wouldn't be surprised if he is going to your Mom either. Animals often seem to me to have psychic senses that we have lost.

Sorry about your car your furnace your accountants and any other annoying hassles you are having. The good signs with your manager and neighbour do sound good though. And well done on getting to be a finalist in the scriptwriting contests. I know you have a lot of talent and that will be rewarded sooner or later. Hopefully sooner.

We had a bit of snow today but it didn't settle and now at 11ish at night I look out and there is a right snowstorm going on. Dickens just doesn't know what to make of snow at all! Our friend Tony is here and we are thinking he may have to stay the night rather than go home in this weather. I expect you are used to a lot of snow but we are not and the whole country grinds to a standstill over it!

Yes do hope you enjoy the holidays despite the sadness over your Mom.

Take Care

Can't believe it is July since I wrote to you. The time has flown. I was just reminded to write to you because a newish member Lily told me they have loads of rescue cats. So how are your kittens and how are you? I hope things are going well. It will soon be the holidays now huh.

Anyway I havn't forgotten about you!

Bye for Now

Yes well I was sure we would win the 49 mill last night but NO! Oh well we are bound to win next week.

Sounds like you and your sister have been through quite a lot together. It is good you can both be supportive and caring. I think it helps a lot when you have people you can trust around. When I lived on my own a few years I found I would think too much and brood on things all the time. I'm much happier shareing with Azzi now. But when I was married I was unhappy shareing so it doesn't always work.

I hope you find a good publisher for your books soon as well.

I don't know about literary agents but we do have Shelagh Watkins among our members who has written books and has a group called Published Authors:
http://publishedauthors.ning.com/

and other groups to do with writing and books. So it may be worth you getting in touch with her.

Yes it would be nice to win the lottery and get your series sold. Every week before the lottery draw I have a little daydream what to do with the money when I win. Every week I am convinced I will win! At the moment my cause is housing and homelessness so I would spend a lot on providing good easily affordable housing for people who can't get any now. But my causes change on a regular basis. Of course I will give a lot to you for the cats as well!

Yes it is much better to be breathing well again. And I appreciate being able to breath in a way I never did before I got ill.

I'm a bit shocked at the moment because poor Alec told me in May that his Mom had got cancer but the treatment prospects looked good but now he just told me she has died. Terrible shock for him isn't it. Do you know Alec on here? He lives in Seattle which I think of as being up your way!

have you finished the 5 novels yet?! Only joking! Mind you the way you are so creative I wouldn't be surprised How are the kittens and everything? I am much happier with a stronger inhalor that has given me a new lease of life this summer. Didn't think I'd ever feel so well again. Well except for recurring stomach problems which continue on and off but the breathing is much easier. Hope it stays that way!

Anyway this is all really just to say I hope you are doing well at the moment.

Wow five different novels at the same time is quite something! Hope you don't get confused with so many different characters to keep track of though. But you seem so talented you probably manage fine.

I went for the results of my breathing test today and was told I have to go for a chest xray and take a stronger inhaler. I was expecting the news so it wasn't a shock really.

Went to this nursery afterwards and bought some plants for the garden including some marigolds which look really bright and cheerful and some rock plants for a small rockery area we are planning in one corner. It's only a very little garden but I like to fit a lot in!

Anyway don't worry about writing back because I know you are not feeling too bright lately. I'll be back round to see how you are getting on before long anyway.

Bye for Now

I think I am confused by inhalers and ventilators as I thought they are the same! I have got an inhaler but probably not a ventilator if it is different! I will have to look these things up and learn what I am talking about...

Fancy you still having snow over there. It must seem like a long winter to you. Yes I am looking forward to time in the garden in the sun this summer. The daffodils and tulips are now nearly over so I am thinking what to plant that will flower next. Probably some wallflowers which smell really nice as well.

Anyway take it easy and I hope you feel better soon.

Bye for Now
