Making friends!

I couldn't resist posting this cute photo of my Siamese Biba and Granddaughter Jessica eyeing each other up, it was taken on Mother's day and apart from having no water for the day, night and next day due to a burst water main we all had a lovely time. It is a bit of a wake up call, we take for granted just turning on the taps and clean, fresh water appears, it makes you think of those countries where clean water is a luxury. We are hearing of a water shortage in the South but it always amazes me that we are an island surrounded by water and as soon as we hit a dry patch we are in a drought! Anyway, I have always hated wasting water and now I am even more vigilant in conserving it, even turning the tap off while cleaning your teeth can save a lot and showers instead of baths are more economical, didn't mean to turn this into a lecture! Anyway enough, hope your week will be a wonderful one, hugs!

  1. This is such an adorable photo of Jessica and Biba! As far as the water shortage that was awful...I grew up having to save water...my mother never allowed us to run tap water, she was a product of the "Dustbowl" and it was a terrible time for them during the 30's. I used to hate to hear her tell us to turn off the water but now I'm well trained. :))
