@big e I have got 2 cat doors - still thinking about putting one in the bedroom door as well - as she tends 'to go to be with me' but then wakes me up later on to let her out.

It's a complicated old house - so the 'real' cat door is out from the laundry door, which I used to keep closed, still do - as it opens onto my patio, where I have an extra large table and the last seat is close to the laundry door. So it remains firmly shut, but there is now a cat door in it and I need to keep the screen door slightly open, so cat can get in. Which I do and did - so now cat is in laundry and there is yet another cat door into the corridor - she finds it all a bit much at times and when I am around, she' will meeauw at the kitchen exit to said patio and I'll open that for "Her Majesty', the cat

Yes, she did come into my life at the right time. I do have a somewhat poetic vision of life in general - things, people, come into your life for a reason and yours is not to ask 'why' - just to accept and see the good in it.

I'll try the cream you suggested - was thinking about professional 're-surfacing' even though my skin isn't bad at all, but it's apparently a good idea to do that as one gets older, so will try. Especially now, that I have realised i won't need a tooth implant - yet.

Last week I watched two U-Tube films by a cosmetic surgeon analysing what two actresses had had done to their faces over the years. Even though it was only a guess, but supported by actual photographs of the stars, the cost of looking forever young for those in the spotlight is astronomical. In one instance the lady had - presumably - spent at least US$300 000 and the other over half a million in the space of 30 years - they are both famous and their faces have changed very little, all due to clever cosmetic surgery etc. Apparently you can tell a facelift, by a tiny fold which bunches up in front of their ears; and you can do clever things about sagging brows and lines round the eyes. I never knew that.

I once - as a 14-year old decided I didn't like my freckles, found a place in the Inner City who did a chemical 'burning' off of freckles, booked myself in without my mother's knowledge - went there and had the rather painful treatment - and I turned up with a swollen and bright red face at home, with mother opening the door - and having hysterics. But it worked - they never came back and I only get slight freckling on the nose at times.
So 'skin-surfacing' is a powerful way of keeping young, but in my case it was a one-off; actors, actresses do that more often.
Now I don't even know how I found out about those places in the days before search engines and the internet, but I did.

Time for lunch - delicious left-overs from yesterday!
go well
