If she could put someone down, she would. I hated being around her, and was not at all sorry to transfer to another town. She reckoned that she'd had a bad deal in life, and not been able to fulfil her potential - she was married to a nice man, two kids, nice house, no money worries - just thwarted social ambition. The resentment ate her up. Literally. Now,years after her death, I feel sorry for her. There was absolutely no need for her to have been the way she was.the veg artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04029588460808570133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-54941149731725952662012-09-07T07:30:25.137-07:002012-09-07T07:30:25.137-07:00It is wonderful when pets bond with each other.

After the kittens were weaned I brought her inside to join my two Golden Retrievers. It has been happy marriage, but oddly enough, Sox already rules the roost. She's the most confidant cat I've ever seen! By the way, we have kept all five kittens and they live happily in our barn (yes, we got all them "fixed," so no more kittens are in our future.sandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17355232032181406759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-44610206490709635242012-09-06T17:19:08.568-07:002012-09-06T17:19:08.568-07:00Your cats are so precious and I love the photo of ...Your cats are so precious and I love the photo of the two of them relaxing together on the bed. My cats tolerate each other but no love affair there. Oddly, my older cat and my dog have the closer relationship in this bunch. C'est la vie. <br /><br />As far as catty women, none in my life. I didn't even know that there was a Housewives of Vancouver t.v show. When my kids were little we spent a few months in Vancouver and people were so polite, kind and down to earth so the idea of a Housewives show based there is hard to imagine.Awakening my Wardrobehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11657836778192537111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-58261772591365501172012-09-06T16:53:10.625-07:002012-09-06T16:53:10.625-07:00Yippee!!!
