I got through.
Eventually.
That's our birthday weekend all but sorted out now. A special event for my birthday, overnight in a posh hotel (as you do) and then a trip to visit Tiddles for two hours on his birthday. They were brilliant on the visitors line - would you believe that she even recognised my voice and greeted me with "It's Smudgie, isn't it?" Well, to be honest, if you believe that, you'll believe anything, but she did recognise me sufficiently to greet me by my first name, and also help me come up with a strategy for taking Smudgelet to visit. Superb.
Problem of the week, if you're considering praying for me, is that I am inundated with professional support and offers of counselling for myself, but I am having considerable difficulty finding the appropriate professional support for the Smudgelet who really needs it and has asked for it to be found for him quickly. (I mean professional support, not friends or family, to tackle some very specific difficulties). I could rant and rave quite happily about this difficulty. He needs it, and he needs it when HE wants it.
Achievement of the week - well, we may not have walked the circumference of the Island yet, but my sister and I have made a real impact on the state of the garden. :D
