Good morning beautiful Topsy. I am sorry about yesterday little girl, I forgot that I had to go into town to get some shopping, the past eighteen days have made me more forgetful than I usually am. It was raining as I left here yesterday morning, and as I walked into town, it just got heavier and heavier. I hoped that I would be able to buy some of my favourite biscuits in another shop, but when I got there, the whole shelf had been cleared, there are usually loads and loads of them. I was lucky enough to find one last pack at the back… everything that I like is grabbed. When I got to the other shop, I was surprised to find that there were pies and pasties there, so I got some for my poor Mum, but I could not get George any ham, as the place where I keep it in the fridge, has been grabbed. The one space where I can keep a few things had a load of squirty tins of cream and tubs of custard shoved there yesterday, but I soon moved them. I managed to get myself seven dinners, or seven loads of large noodles , which I have not been able to do for a long time. I forgot a few things, and had to get Tiddles a bag of Bonkers, the biscuits that I buy for Molly, I do not know how I did not burst into tears. The rain was even heavier on the way back here, and I was soaked, but when I got in, I changed my boots, and went out there into the gardens to dig Molly’s little resting place. I have not been able to do so because I was so unwell. Molly’s little box has been safe by the big old tree covered in earth and leaves, but I had to lay her to rest properly, and did so this morning when I went back down there to get the coffee. It is another awful day little girl, why this sort of thing keeps happening to us I do not know… I am dreading taking Tiddles to the vets in twelve days time. I love you Topsy, and I miss you too little girl. XxX
