TGIF

Holla furriends, we sure are glad it is Friday.  It was a day for chilling out and getting the feeling of starting the weekend.  It sure was sad to hear about Nelson Mandelas death today, but we are glad that he got to die peacefully with his family at home.  Such a great man.

See all those flowers on the bushes behind me, well they were looking all dedraggled after a night of wind, so mum spent the afternoon cutting them back.  Lots of rain and sunshine has made everything grow lots in the past two weeks, including all the weeds, so mum has lots of weeding to do over the weekend.  Even though it was her intention to have a quiet weekend, one of her colleagues has some family stuff to sort out, so mum is filling in with some on-call work.  It all helps to pay the bills, and mum will get some time off later in the month.

Hope you are all ready for the weekend and have got some fun things planned.
