ZZZzzzzzz......

It's been a while since I posted my Jakey-boy on here, so here he is again.

He is quite an easy subject to blip.
He doesn't moan, hardly ever moves, especially when he's asleep. And even when it's a wide-awake portrait, he is willing to stay still for ages and just stare at me. He is lovely.

Today was one of his sleepy days and I love a sleepy cat.
I sometimes wish I was a sleepy cat.

It's been quite a week for us and I still can't believe what an emotional roller-coaster it has been.

How did I get to be so emotional? When did this happen to me? I didn't used to be this emotional.

This week we went to appeal over my young sons place at High school, having not gotten his and our first choice. Goodness me, how disappointed we were for him to be rejected back in March.

How incredibly difficult it was for us to sit and argue across a vast table, in the nicest possible way that we could, why our son should have a place at the school of our choice. How did this come about? Who expected it to be so difficult? I did not plan for this.

And just one day later, we received that very important letter saying that we had won our appeal. A piece of paper, with just a few lines on it.

It is not something that I will take for granted. 168 places. Including one for my son.

On a lighter note, Jakey is due for a de-fleaing tomorrow!
