Thanks for the positive comments, brom friends. Glad you enjoyed it - just sorry you weren't all there. LOL, Andrew, that 100% pay rise sounds good, but my maths is poor - what is 100% of $0? The alien hieroglyphics were most annoying. I now know that one should change the file to text only, when copying and pasting a Word document. The hieroglyphics substituted all the inverted commas, apostrophes, and dots...... which did not show in the preview. Lisa - I know nothing about why there weren't more Aussie hybrids available for sale. Probably distance to get them there would have been a hindrance. Shane Z was selling some of his hybrids, as was Peter T. I can only assume that due to restrictions on O.S. visitors' purchases, the sellers catered more for Aussies - the majority. And yes Gonzer, a splendid time was had for sure! Cheers, Kerry

Pink did not die of natural causes. If she had, I could say, "God's Will" and be okay with it. I could be at Peace. The thing I was giving her that had brought about her remarkable improvement in just four days, was administered improperly by the weekend vet techs at a dosage ten times what she should have been given and for three damned days. That is why she made such a drastic change for the worse all of a sudden after a week of dramatic improvement. Jesus! In essence, she was poisoned. Then she was given a high potency drug intravenously on day four that basically did the same thing as the herbal medication (even though I told them to wait until the herbal overdose wore off) and she died that night as a result. The vet said she had a bad reaction to the drug. Ya, it's called an OVERDOSE. :( Nothing can be done about it, I have investigated it thoroughly, so please, no comments to that regard. I feel bad enough as it is and especially to have to pay them nearly $3,000 for killing my baby. I just wanted to let you know that it wasn't God's Will, so don't blame Him. It has been raining ever since she died. Tears from Heaven for my Pinkums...how I feel anyway. Thank you all for all the love and cares. Sleep well, my sweet Pinkums, peaceful sleep. No more pain. I believe my son Charles is caring for her and loving her now. One the way home tonight I saw Charles' animal token perched on a telephone wire and I felt his presence and felt his love.

Dan, just take care of yourself, no one I think (I hope) would take this as an unreasonable request. We just want to help you get back to normalcy in your own time and however it takes you personally to get there. If I have caused you any heart break in anyway I truly am sorry. Always just trying to give respect, better to discuss then to hurt someone unintentional. Take care of yourself, I hope you get to the place you need to be as soon as you personally can. We will not rush, promise not to poke or prod (although one or both you might like, hehe you like squishes, ummm would that be cheek kisses Bunny?)or push you until you can be The REAL Dan again. How's that for backing off? Hugs to you old man (hehe, your STILL older then me) :) Fran (squishes? hmmm)

Thank you, everyone! Annie, all the cards that came with the box are offically filled! The last recipe was from Mom's old Betty Crocker cookbook (from the 70's I believe) for Starlight Cake (it sounds good, and I'm not much of a cake eater lol. I love the name of it too!). Good luck making your blueberry jam! You're welcome for the reminder! Some of the recipes took up two cards, like Strawberry Shortcake, both pickle recipes and Fried Green Tomatoes. I think I might write down one or two more before going to bed tonight. Remember, I just got another pack of cards today! They're the same design as before from the Dollar Tree and I lucked out because they only had one pack of that design left! :) Brad AKA Moonwolf
