This is part of Family - our Family

Just felt that maybe I need to introduce you folks to a few bits about our family.
We're a bit strange in certain aspects - or so we think... and even our animals have been proven to be a bit strange.

But that's all ok... because we enjoy it that way.

Here's a pic of Sandy & I... just fooling around in front of the camera.

Then I felt that I just had to show you 2 pics of our cat. Her name is Pebbles. Her sister (Angel) died in 2010. Angel was always the cuddly, homely one. Pebbles was always 'out there somewhere', exploring things & places.
Ever since Angel left us Pebbles moved into the home on a more permanent basis... seemed to be looking for the closeness she'd shared with her sister from us now. She took to our daughter's bunny (Mumbles), and the two of them regularly visited across the cage mesh, and occasionally at close quarters as can be seen in the attached pic. Pebbles also loves to cuddle - even when I'm trying to work on the laptop. I suppose one could say of her that she thinks "This is my lap... it's warm... and filled with lovies."

Note where the laptop's mouse is!

Not so's Pebbles doesn't eat it... but just so I can use it.

I never was a cat-person. But Angel n Pebbles are ... 'different'. Love them to bits!
They were both supposed to be wife n daughter's cats, but somehow they decided that I make a good place to rest n snuggle.

Yeah I know... Long Time No See or Hear!

It's been looong since I made the decision to sell Landy.
And then came the whole business of advertising... and advertising... and doing some more ads.

And the thoughts came about, "Am I going to get Landy sold?" ; "Do people want to buy an old Land Rover like this?"

But... thanks be to our Lord, the interest began to show. And slowly I had people (of all shapes, sizes and descriptions) come to check out her credentials... check how she ran, and all those things that one does when you're wanting to buy something, but also want to make sure this guy's not selling you the proverbial "lemon".

One of the things I'd asked the Lord - as far as buyers were concerned - (Yip, even sellers pray about the goods they want to flog!) - was that He'd send someone who would have the right heart for her. You know; someone who would take good care of her.
And so it was that that someone arrived. He took her for a test drive - with me along for good measure... because he wanted to go show her to his wife. And he fell in love with Landy... or at least it seemed they did.
And as things would have it be, the business side of things took place... very quickly I must add.

And so Landy moved home - drove of into the sunset.
{Ja, the new buyer & I had some unpleasantness happen between us, but that's not going to get discussed.  Life moves on, and I truly hope & pray he's happy with her.}

And so a 4 and a half year era in my life... actually my family's life too... came to an end.
