MaryL
I have been taking oil painting lessons for 3 years. My idea when I started
was to have something special to look forward to when I reach retirement and
not become a "couch potato." I soon found that I love painting "right now."
I just finished my first attempt at painting cats. I looked through...

some truly compassionate volunteers caring for the occupants. We will
also be moving to better...

She survived the anaesthetic like a cat half her age, which is exactly what
I'm coming to expect from her.

couple of ulcers which we can't do much about.
