Thank you all for lending a listening ear yesterday.Sorry i didnt get to reply to all your comments, its still hectic in the household here and working,now on top of nursing a bad bout of flu. but i read all your comments and hold them dear to my heart.
I hope my strange concoction yesterday didnt spoil your appetite for dinner:)
We went to the park last week and saw this snoozing kitty on the grass patch. Didnt budge when Caleb and I went near,didnt seem to fear humans.Very zen cat,closed her eyes while i sneaked a shot.Gosh can i be her for a day?
Awwww the kitten is adorable! :) Great capture. I hope you feel better...

Hi dearest tyan, I completely love this feline capture. It is absolutely this sort of quality photography that keeps me trying to visit here on Am3 even when time is short. Time constraint limits how much else I can say about it this evening, but may I also say thanks so much for your heartfelt response and honest sharing at my blog. I appreciate it so much. I’ve also pasted my reply here for your convenience :)
dearest tyan, thank you for sharing so honestly once again. i am really sorry and saddened to hear about your sis-in-law treating you this way. i can imagine it is particularly heartbreaking to get such treatment from family, who should be our natural source of support and unconditional love. i also really hope and pray you will be able to find meaningful interaction with other mommies, as well as arrange some playdates along the way for the little ones. just starting with even one likeminded mommy can help, i’m thinking for example of rainsocks? try to find a mutually workable date/time/venue, even if it involves some adjustment of schedule. i feel it’s worth it. my home schedule with elise also has had to be flexible since we started with playdates and attending mom & tots groups (from about 6 months of age), and usually varies from week to week, sometimes from day to day, depending on what playdate/group/other activity is on for the day. it’s true that for us most of the playdates and mom& tots groups meet in the early afternoon, so elise’s naptime has ended up later in the afternoon (usually after 3.30pm, and usually not for very long anyway, as i’ve explained before), and her bedtime is also later than the usual 8/9pm type of time – that’s also partly because jeff’s often home from work around 7.30/8pm (and 10pm on days he’s on call), and elise is always keen to see her daddy and spend quality time with him before even thinking of going to bed, so she’s stuck consistently to a later bedtime. it does fit in quite well with her playdate/mom&tots group timings. but a later bedtime also does mean my “me” time at the end of the day is very limited, sometimes non-existent, especially when we usually have little over an hour left at the end of the day, after dinner & attending to household needs, to do everything else that remains to be done – emails, admin, blogging. partly because of this pressure on the computer and our time at the end of the day, i’m actually not keen on sharing in great length regularly online (lol, isn't it somewhat ironic, given how long-winded i usually am! :) ) – honestly, it’s not something i can practically do long-term without compromising on the welfare of my family. it’s also partly because i’m the sort of person who’s much more comfortable enjoying a good chat on the phone or in person, rather than communicating online/in writing. that’s also why, along with all the other aspects of our circumstances as i’ve tried to explain before, whilst i love photography and the am3 community, i really find it impractical, near-impossible actually, to maintain regular blogging here at am3, and have had to also really limit the length and quantity of my commenting. it's often just down to the bare bones nowadays of expressing enjoyment of an image, which is why i regard am3 as part of my "me" time, time to unwind at the end of a long day anyway. but Tyan, as said, i am the sort of person who does enjoy a good chat on the phone with a friend/family. i have a suggestion along these lines which i’ll try my best to explain by email soon this evening. do check it out and hopefully will look forward to more good chats with you then. :)

Great image dear! Hope things are looking up for you. You are the only online buddy I've got so that means the world to me :) I hope we can draw strength from each other's experiences and move ahead with joy in our hearts. Praying for you pal....take care. Next week is busy but no matter what , you are in my thoughts and I will come by and leave comments when things get less hectic with the move. God bless your dear family.

I like the spaceship looking light in the back ground - looks like aliens are coming down to get the kitty.
