Did it come from Ikea by any chance? Anzac the beautiful had a stuffed toy called Kazna which was her spit’n’image in colouration and came from Ikea.

There’s nothing like unpredictability I like not to say.

I can’t find Kazna, but Jeff was a half border collie, brindle colour, and the toy looked something like this:

Well, only at times !

It happened that the toy and Anzac really were very, very similar in the placing of their colours. The toy was about a foot maybe fifteen inches long, and a really soft-toy toy; she carried it around with her when she was a pup, and wouldn’t got to her basket without it. Just like a child with a rag, really.

The toy was Kazna from Anzac, not named that in Ikea. The K was because C just didn’t quite work and might have ended up being pronounced sazna.

I am going slowly mad trying not to smoke, esp since it hurts. I know I can’t manage 5 days but I told myself I could surely manage 12 hours and reward myself at bedtime - 90 minutes to go. Tick, tick, tick…

As an aside, I have been sitting here wondering why dentists don’t insist you sign consent forms like what doctors do. If this wouldn’t qualify as assault, without consent, I don’t know what would.

Good morning all

The leopards have mostly decided I am their slave who abandoned them but returned

So I had a faithful leopard footwarmer in bed

He sleeps on my feet - I suspect this is so he can be instantly aware if I do anything interesting*

The Bull is being a proper Gnurse and not letting me do anything much

This will soon change if I have my way - I have daffs to plant and celery to harvest and craft groups to catch up on and a kitchen to regain
I also want to make a couple of curtains to cut icy draughts through ill fitting doors so I need to get the fabric header tape lining weights to sew in the hem and so on

Then I have All sorts of plans for walking and swimming to get my basic fitness up!

  • That leopard considers anything and everything interesting

Especially if it is a bag or a box

One word, don’t. Not any of it. Not yet.

Why?

I am better so life needs to be resumed

I hate giving in to illness and so will try to do as much as I c an as soon as I can

So for today I can measure the doors and think of bright colours to make curtains from

I can also toddle round the drive and terrace to see my celery and show the Bull where daffs are to go

I promise not to go mad and overdo things

Is knitting permitted?

Please…
