That heart of Gold is shining again Donna,and long may it shine, you are a very loving, caring giving person,be proud of that, and yes sometimes you end up on getting a bad deal, but for every bad deal i am sure there are countless good ones,when the time of reckoning comes my dear friend, those pearly gates will be welcoming you.

I am so sorry about your daughter's kitty, but please try not to feel bad,you can't know everything,you have done your best.

I hope your friend comes through with the money soon, nothing worse than being strapped for cash, and someone owing you,good luck and chin up, all will be well soon i am sure, i hope anyhow.
