Well another week has rushed by with very little to write about. However I am grateful that everything is moving along as we hoped, and I have managed to finish the main packing. There is still tools etc in the garage, but they have been sorted so it shouldn't be hard to pack them up. I just need small boxes as they are very heavy.
I had an unexpected call from my dermatologist clinic Tuesday lunch time, to say they had a free appointment that afternoon, so we drove to Vera for one last time. Dr Ana was lovely and she has given me medication to last through 'til June, and some useful information for a dermatologist in UK when I find one.
It was nice when Chris brought me in a card which the mail man had left today. I wasn't expecting anything so I opened it. It was a Mothering Sunday card from my son. I have been so busy that I hadn't even registered that it was this Sunday, so that was a a really great surprise. It is a pretty card and I will enjoy having it on display now.
This week we said "Goodbye" to our last furry friend, little Luna. I took her as a rescue kitten from the vet when a litter was dumped on her door step over sixteen years ago. She has been mostly an outdoor cat, only coming in for food, and shelter when the weather is bad. But she is not unfriendly and since rehoming Tolly and Leo, she has stayed in the house for longer, even curling up on Chris' lap occasionally, though not for long. (I can't have her on mine). A man came to collect her on Tuesday and I also gave him all the food, dishes etc that I had left. I was sad to see her go but I know she was disturbed by all the boxes, wandering around and in between them and meowing, so hopefully she is more settled now.
It is more than forty years since I had no cats at all, and it is really strange not to be greeted when I get up each day.
I had a long catch-up chat with my sister on Monday, which was nice.
It has been sunnier with intermittant grey clouds this week, and I have sat out on the porch to sew a thread or two of my cross-stitch whenever I need a break from packing. My back soon complains if I try to do too many boxes in one go.
And that is the week that was. Only a few more to go!!
So I am off to share this on Annie's Friday Smiles. see you there.

Those last weeks are weird, aren't they. I know ho you feel. Is it easy to get back registered with the NHS? I have been told waiting times for consultants are much longer than here in Spain.
Life without a cat? Must be strange. I'm still getting used to being woken up at dawn. I hope that doesn't continue when it gets light at 3:30!
I also received Mother's Day cards, but I still don't know whether it's the coming Sunday or last Sunday.
The weather seems to be lightening up so
Have a lovely weekend,
Lisca
So pleased the card arrived, and in time. It is sad to let the kitties go. 😥
I'm sure when you're here, Ghostie and Severina will jump on your lap at every opportunity (and even on your sleeping head if you don't close the bedroom door properly at night 😉)
Quite a sad good-bye, but for the best, too... time sure runs. Have a nice weekend x
