Good Friday

Day spent chilling and tidying.

I'm not a cuddly toy type of woman, the owls that my eldest gave me were the only soft animals that live in my bedroom...until today, little one came downstairs (an hour after she had been put to bed...but that's a *whole* other blip) and said "mum, MUM you are going to be so pleased with what I found!"

She was so right, it brought tears to my eyes. It was the cat that a lovely lady made me as a Thank You pressie years ago..she was a proper crafter!

She made it out of a sock and it even had a thank you note in the pocket. I treasured it and couldn't believe that someone had spent time making something by hand for me. I NEVER forgot how that made me feel and now I always try to make gifts for the people I love.

I have moved out of my family home...then out of the house I rented 'temporarily' and the little cat got mislaid on our travels...till now.

Caroline gifted me the cat after I helped her out...she worked in the library for a while and was one of those people who are just 'good people'

She was always destined for amazing things - I hope she's out in the world doing them.
