Hi Connie! I can't tell you enough how wonderful it was to meet you in person!  You are one terrific gal!  And your daughter is just like her mum!  Your kindnesses shall be remembered for a long time!  The small gift for Carrie couldn't adequately convey how sweet it was of her to 'babysit' my vehicle, especially with her moving it around to avoid the plow!  The 'peace of mind' she gave me was PRICELESS--(like those dang commercials!) Thanks and  BIG (((HUG))) **SUE**

Sorry for taking so long to respond.  Been ruminating over school work.  Thanks for your kind words, Tracy!   It was so good to meet you!  And you're doing okay in the loss area.  Everybody loses at their own rate.  And you look fabulous! Yup--Quin is a good kid!  He does say that the highlight of his vacation was splitting wood--like a basement full--- for his Uncle Mike. (I still wonder if I heard him right!)  (((HUG))) **SUE**

Hi Lori~ I'm glad to hear your Christmas went well!  I was praying that you'd have a wonderful time with your family.  (You know what they say--you can pick your friends but you can't pick your family.) What did you end up doing with your kitty cat?  Did you get a cat-sitter or was the neighbour visiting enough?  Our cat went nuts and became very demanding of attention from the friend who checked on her. She also tripped over my laundry basket and made it nest.  And this is from a anti-social feline! I'm very happy for you that the new job is working out!  Praise the Lord! I hope to meet you the next time I head to the Cities. ((HUG)) **SUE**

I had a great time with my family. Thanks for asking. YOu are so sweet. I'm really glad I made the choice I did. I needed to for my mental health. It's amazing how well I am sleeping at night.  My neighbor checked in on Felix every other day. I was really worried about him; but he did fine. She gave him some cat nip (my idea to her). It usually calms him. Before I left, I put piles of clothing in various spots in the house that he could sleep in. When I came home, all of those spots were flattened. So, I know he slept fine. He did stress over eat (like mommy, like kitty... hee, hee). And when I got home he was attached to my hip. NOW, he is fine.............. sitting by the fireplace.

I guess your kitty is a little more dependant on you than you thouht, huh? Ahhhhh, that's so cute. Is your kitty back to normal now? Well, maybe there will have to be a road trip up to Canada. I've never been there before.  Have a great rest of the week.  Hugs, Lori

I'm so glad that things are working out for you!  Ain't nothing like work-related stress to force decisions. Stripes--the family cat--was very clingy when we first got home, and for the first few nights would force her head in my hand at 3AM with her 'PET ME! PET ME!' routine.  Would have to pet her or keep getting bugged. Now she's back to her old cranky self and she sleeps with 'her' boy.  My son gets rather ticked off when I offer her tuna.  Just say 'TUNA!' and  she'll sit in front of the cupboard where the cans are kept and ''talk' until the can opener is done with the can. After she laps up the tuna juices she's back to her old crabby self!  (Cats sure think they own a place!) Hey--my door is always open to 'foreigners'!   Just think--you can be in a different country within a 6-hour from home!  And Canada is a beautiful place. (((HUG))) **SUE**
