I never take things for granted mind but it's not an easy decision to make. Also, hard decisions include serving notice on colleagues - horrible. So yeah, cutting back now when we can if something sensible. However, am hopeful that my wife gets a job she deserves and my own job / company gets more stable. Am hanging in there and my courage is strong (though dented in a few places!) - peace!

However, time to see (and hear) a few explosions.

Thanks for the kind words, our little cat was cremated today and my wife and I have accepted and we're going to move on.

However, wise words for sure and thank you.

We're so grateful for taking so many pictures and videos.

I mean, the loss of a friend etc was tough but I think it is the sudden shock of one minute our little cat is jumping around and the next, she's in a bag all bloody and stiff; my wife shuffling home crying into a tesco plastic carrier bag. Am 100% sure it will be fine, time is a great healer.

Initially, she would try and chase after the ships on screen but soon figured out that 'daddy' wasn't too happy when she did this.

Am doing the same with destroyers. Fri, 20 Jul 2012 11:46:51 +0000 http://eveoganda.blogspot.dk/2012/07/blowing-off-steam-in-merlin.html#IDComment405557504
