Congratulations Least 71/2 years is wonderful. Isn't it incredible when we think of how dependent we used to be and how it ruled us?
FG sad you had to say goodbye to your beagle, even when it is the right thing to do, to let them go, it is still a loss,me specially when they have been in our lives for so long.
PJ I am glad you are enjoying the writing course. I did a couple of short story writing courses which were great fun and yes, we do open up in our writing, consciously and subconsciously!
Happy Bank holiday Monday everyone.
