I've been in hiding during that alphabet challenge thing so many of them do!<br /><br />Anyway, I'm always finding the positive aspects to what can seem like negative situations. Realistic positive anticipation that all will be okay.<br /><br />Hugs to you and Dusty, my lovely friend.<br /><br />Gary :) x klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-52445685202232510322016-05-03T18:07:54.037+01:002016-05-03T18:07:54.037+01:00Thank you, Joanna.

These pictures are gorgeous and Dusty looks really happy.<br />I am - often quite annoyingly - optimistic almost all the time, which can lead to disappointment quite often, but I can't help myself! It is somewhat offset by Hubby's more realistic and measured approach. <br /><br />Wishing Dusty all the very best with his continuing recovery and looking forward to knowing how the hydrotherapy goes. xxxJoannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10346863303904973315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-62571067378744459292016-05-02T19:25:34.153+01:002016-05-02T19:25:34.153+01:00Just had the best part of a bottle and feeling bet...Just had the best part of a bottle and feeling better for it, Sue :-) Thank you - and thank you for the lovely card :-) xxTeresa Ashbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350697922935549188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-58477568689856863772016-05-02T16:54:43.668+01:002016-05-02T16:54:43.668+01:00Definitely half bottle full girl here!
