Thank you from the bottom of my woolly socks.

Leave a message if you want to.
Thank you
A warm United Friends greeting Corrie! Had spotted your posting on the "...for United Friends only" thread - good to make another friend in this most congenial place.

Hello Mustard Seed

I am new here and have been looking around. I found a link to you on someone's PS and was intrigued by your name. Very nice. Your PS is wonderful and it looks like you have only been here for a couple of weeks. Will you help me, perhaps? That's a lot to ask. I have just found a nice pond with fish in it and put it on my PS. Well, it's a start. I am not in a rush.

The links on your page are very useful and I like the Comfort Corner Cyber Cafe.

ES : )

That's a shame. I'll remove the links.

Hi-ya

Sorry, something new in work's
Its up for a re-fit and update for the future.

ES

Have removed link and sent massage/instructions to the others who had a link to you.

Was worried ewe were leaving! You're my unofficial Guru and the place wouldn't be the same without you.

Can't wait to see your new place. Can we have an opening party?

Sent your thingy to Ruth - it's under a thread called Thought Provoking. I'm going to stick another one in there, then sleep. Love playing in here when everyone else is asleep, with just the hamster, gerbils and dogs for company. Tonight though, I'm just too tired.

Please say hi to 'M' and VK and the little s for me.

Good night and sleep well.

sleep well my friend.

ES

Hi Mustard Seed

Hope you and family are feeling better. M and family are fine, big has a big cut on his nose and a bruise on his forehead, where he fell over in the playground, Middle got hit on the head by one of the other children at his nursery on the same day, but they are ok, baby well. We were over at M's today so ES could look at her shower, It looks as though I am going to be kept busy for a while as she wants me to start decorating the kitchen for her, then the hall next.lol Kids!! where would we be without them.

Hello Mustard Seed,

Have just got in from the garden and have to finish cooking lunch. Hope you are having a lovely day.

Afternoon, Helen,

It's a beautiful day isn't it. Our family, well almost our whole village, have been quite ill for the last week or so. Am convinced it's something to do with the farmers and their chemicals. Energy levels are very low but have been enjoying the Spring sunshine with the children and the dogs in between periods of quiet.

We have lots to do this afternoon but I might grab an hour (she says) on here tonight. Might even have a so, if you're about we can have a chat then.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.

Corrie (or Correne)

Hiya VK,

Thanks for asking about the kids. We have a daughter who is 8 and a son who is 7. Last night we freaked thinking boy child was getting the lurgy, but he's fine today. Girl child totally recovered, too. Me and Mr. Seed still feel rough but better than we were. The worst bit has been the apathy - just not able to do anything. Been out this morning though. My house is a worse tip than usual!

Do you like decorating? I'm useless at it. My cat was injured in September and was recovering in the downstairs loo. When she was better I decided to clean loo thoroughly, then thought it wouldn't take long to flick a paintbrush around. It took Mr. Seed a whole week to try and put things right! I am banned from decorating and I am banned from his computer!!

Your page looks brill. I've got to update a site I look after for a charity and it will take ages. Been putting it off all week so will have to do it tomorrow. It's easy to maintain so I guess that's why I've enjoyed playing with GuideML because that's new to me.

If you get a chance have a look at our 'Thought Provoking' thread - it's on Ruth's page where the Golden Oldies are.

Quick trip to Tesco's now.

Hi Mustard Seed

Good to hear everyone getting better.

I dare not say how old M is as she does not want to be reminded, I do not know why, as when it was my 50th a few years ago she arranged a suprise party for me. Our son is 31. M's children are big 6, middle 4 in April and baby is 6 months on 25th.

Yes I do. My great uncle taught me how to decorate when I was young.

ES, has always liked me to join in with the computers, but I am afraid a lot goes over my head, we have a network running, so we can both work at the same time if we wish too.

Thanks for compliment, I decided what pictures and how I wanted it set out, but it was ES who showed me how to do it, he's a heart.

I will have a look thank's.

Hello Mustard Seed

Had to write again to say I have looked at thought provoking, and was very moved especially by the poem, cracked pot, it brought tears to my eyes.

It was the second time I had, had tears in my eyes today, the first was while sitting at the computer, and our cat penny nudged my arm, nothing really out of the ordinary, but it was the way she did it, it felt like the cold nose of our dog Tina who we had to have put down 3 years ago at the age of 13, and it opened up old wounds.

Hello VK,

Am pleased you found 'Thought Provoking'. There are many verses that have helped me at different times. The Cracked Pot is a special verse as it helped so many of us at the time (and since): a group of like-minded people coming together to hear something that each of us thought was written just for us.

My first real feeling of bereavement came when our dog, Jay, died when I was 10. My mum lost a brother when I was 7 and whilst I despaired for her pain I didn't grieve for my uncle as I had only met him once. Jay was a black lab with hip dyspasia. The central heating engineer left the gate open and Jay was hit by a car on the hip that had just been replaced. It was awful and even at nearly forty I can barely think about it.

Animals, and I think dogs especially, love us unconditionally. Sometimes our pets look at us a certain way and we just melt - the depth of love is overwhelming. (As for my kids, well it's a million times stronger and I can't begin to articulate!)

We have two dogs. Connie is a border collie who loves rounding-up the mop and the hoover, and she'll sit for hours watching the hamster and gerbils. She's so well-behaved and she follows me everywhere. Kipper is a dog with a mind of his own. When the kids go to bed he sits at the bottom of the stairs and can't wait for them to get up in the morning.

You must meet Essjay. She is on my friends list.

Are you and ES considering another dog?
