Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Good morning, friends.

I’m feeling a bit down this morning as our cute kitten run away to find many cats to give her some love and she hasn’t come back from her vagabondage since Tuesday. As expected my daughter has been devastated at the thought that something could have happened to her so she has been crying a lot ? We are specially concerned about the cold weather as the temperature at night the past few days has been around -4 and tomorrow afternoon we are expected to have a few snow showers and the temperature will be dropping to -11, no good weather for animals to be outside. However, I have been trying to comfort my daughter and told her that cats at times disappear for a while but that they also tend to return, so that’s my hope. My nephews had a cat that once disappeared for a whole year, but he was fixed. if Fresca returns I’m afraid that I’m not only going to be grandma but according to @blue1948 I could have up to 10 grandkittens from different fathers ? But I would gladly take them as long as our Fresca comes back soon safely.

On other news, I was still having laptop issues yesterday so I spent most of the day trying to get a new one but it seems I finally got one working. I am so grateful to have the opportunity to continue working from home but when things go wrong with your at home work tools it can be a worry so I’m very happy that everything is working right and I can be again helping my students.

I won’t multi quote this morning you all post, I’m sure Fred will be thrilled about that but I wanted to say that the pics posted by @Gwladysover and @Armaghtoffee were lovely.

@Terrarian i hope you are okay, we have missed you the past few days.

I also wanted to wish @Methuselah missus the best of luck with her doctors appointment and upcoming surgery.

And I wanted to post a special welcome to @blue to the bone This thread is a little oasis in the desert of negative that can be GOT. So feel free to stop by here for a chat, for a good laugh, or if you need some form of support, we have many great posters that are here for you and ready to offer their friendship and advise.

Lastly, what in the heck is happening with our manager search. This has really become the circus that we didn’t need to have at this crucial moment. I wanted Kovac for many reasons besides the looks. I don’t know a whole a lot about Pereira as a manager but one thing is for sure it seems his appointment would be as divisive as Benitez, just because of how strong the fans are feeling against this appointment I don’t think it should be happening but it seems the Board may think differently.

Okay, I’m finally done with my morning briefing. I’m going to get ready to go to the gym but hopefully I can catch up with everyone later today again.

Cheers. Xx
 
Good morning all. How's it going? I've got over my fury at Sky Sports News yesterday. Vented in the bomb shelter about the way they carried on about the graffiti at Goodison, giving Pereira a right to reply and to defend himself. Absolute lunacy. They really do hate us! I can't stand those two muppets who do the transfer show. They just talk rubbish and I'm convinced it's all to do with odds rigging on Skybet. Getting people to bet on transfers they say are happening.

Clearly from the above I am not over my fury! ? ? Think happy thoughts....Not much to report otherwise. Dad still in hospital but hoping to come out soon. He's desperate to be back in his own bed at home. Not such good news from some of the other tests. His kidneys are not functioning very well so they are looking at dialysis. He's not happy, doesn't want it.
It's a nice day in the North East. Sunny but a bit windy. I've noticed that I'm feeling so much happier as the nights are getting lighter. It's amazing the difference it makes.

@Terrarian are you OK. I'm missing the Frys Chocolate cream and Daisy beagle updates.

Have a good day all x
Yeah, I'm also worried about T. Just checked his profile and he's not been on since Friday. He was struggling with headaches before that. Hope he's OK.

Not such good news about your dad Anj. Sorry to hear that. Will you be travelling over this weekend to see them?

You forgot to mention the whip :blush:

Sorry to hear about your cat Sass. Hopefully she'll find her way back safe and sound and that Blue's prophecy doesn't come about. Perhaps she wasn't really a stray when she wandered into your garden. Maybe she is somebody else's pet and has found her way back home. It wouldn't be unheard of.

I guess if she is back to her original owners that seems fair. I’m fine with her not coming back as long as she is safe at another home, my daughter however may not feel the same way. But at least we still have our other cat.

But I'm sure if you explain it to her in the right way, she will be happier in herself if she thought the cat was safe. She may still miss her but it will stop her fretting over her well being.

Oh no. Hope the kitty comes home. What a little floozie she is! Give her a good talking to when she eventually comes back!

Not such good news about your dad Anj. Sorry to hear that. Will you be travelling over this weekend to see them?
I've just had a phone call from my brother who said Dad is coming home today but, according to Dad, has no results of tests. We are both convinced he is holding things back from us. Which is completely his perogative but we really could do with knowing what's going on so we can have a plan between us to manage care and/ or whatever is coming. I might end up going across midweek because brother has to go to London for work on Tuesday. His company based in Skem supply all the paint for the grass at Wimbledon so that's where he's going.

Maybe you can speak to his GP Anj. If there is anything important the hospital will need to update them. I know there is Patient confidentiality and all that but if there is something wrong with him they'll want to make sure that the family is aware especially if there is caring involved.
 
Ha ha. Floozie. Classic. Haven't heard that for a while lol

Sass may need a bit of translation there Anj. Although something tells me she'll understand exactly what you mean when you explain. lol
@Sassy Colombian Floozie: a young woman who has many casual sexual encounters . Or who dresses or behaves in a,sexually provocative manner.

Also known as a bit of a tart!

I'm going to ring the hospital this afternoon and see if I can talk to somebody without breaking confidences. Even if they say yes there is something wrong. You need to talk to him.
