Thinking of all mothers - loved, estranged, lost, single, step, found family, those longing to be, those who don't wish to be, those unknown, and fur-mums... Hoping you have a good day. Hugs. (and the title of the book is day appropriate l, I think)

surgery update. Sorry, no writing dine today.
A moment of clarity, while recovering from anaethetic and pre pain- meds tonight. Pain is doable so far (fibromyalgia and migraine sufferer = different pain scale). Hospital allowed Dearheart in room to try to curb panic attack. There was still a minor one.
Please get a breast cancer check. You're life could depend on it.

Yeah, nah. Don't think I'll drink that cuppa. Dec 1st, and Summer is definitely here. (Perhaps he needed caffeine more than me?)
