Celebrations: Mother's Day and Easter

I received cards in the mail this week

Freya sent gifts.  Long earrings for Rebecca, a teal

scarf for Arta and messages of love to Duncan who

has the best coiffed hair, ever.  Yesterday as he was walking

along the oad, a random car stopped, the window rolled down

and someone called out to him, "Best fro!  Don't let anyone

ever try to cut it.

from Betty, Alice and Michael. 

Alice promises to send me one card a week. 

My favourite kind of cards are the ones with personalized messages. 

Maybe my favourite all-time card came from Doral’s kids to Kelvin when we knew he was dying of pancreatic cancer. 

The card said RIP and had a nice tombstone on it. Michael sent me a lot of quavers and semi-quavers, plus lyrics to go with them. Betty gifted me a coupon: one free ice cream cone. Alice sent me a finely detailed and decorated cat. This would be one of my favourite kinds of cats -- one that can come in the mail. And now that I've mentioned the word cat, Moiya reminds me that Cruise her outdoor cat is missing. Moiya is sure that if she just leaves the garage door open and some food out, the cat will return. Which it did. I have heard but th been aat there were a few body parts of other animals: , ie, the tail of a squirrel, and what Moiya has to offer for food may not be up to the standard of squirrel for supper, but that cat, 

Cruise, he will take the easy meal when it is available.
