There's that old truism that "the Universe never sends us more than we can handle," but sometimes I really could wish "they" didn't have quite so much faith in my ability to weather storms...

Oh man, this made me giggle!!!! and I needed that laugh, lol - thank you! And yes, I absolutely agree haha!!!

In Danish it would be "lokalt er laekkert"... I guess that's why I pick up on a lot of Afrikaans idioms.

Very similar indeed!!! :D

You and I have definitely both been through the wringer, lately... I did read about Herbie's emergency; those sorts of things are so scary and really makes us remember how much our fur kids mean to us!

Thank you! - He is doing much better now. As for going through the wringer... sometimes I think I am solely responsible for doing that to myself, haha!!! I should really try to be kinder to myself.

I hope this new week holds a little more positive promise than the last couple xxx
