That month, my Dad left us to move to Ohio for about a month, looking for work. I didn't want to move, but we supposedly needed to. That was the one place I first felt at home over here - our neighbours helped us to get food in (although we lived across a huge parking lot from a safeway, a drugstore, etc), helped mum to get christmas presents. We made their kids crocheted christmas stockings for their children and mum filled them with english chocolate and sweets.

Dad drove home and made it home on Christmas Eve. We had a huge tree that took up a large part of our living room when the branches settled - mum had bought it on sale. one of the boys we babysat, died this summer. He was killed trying to break up a fight, and was a Leo.

But that was in my 1st house, I was exercising, and Jupiter ended up there, too - I was feeling somewhat better about myself. only my cat died at the beginning of november. Ten years ago, Liz was put to sleep, at the age of 13, on November 13th. Little Rita died a few weeks ago, at the age of thirteen, and we lost two dogs before Liz. this time we lost bert in January last year, and the cats last august/september.
