Better

[smokingboot]

Yesterday was a tough day for several reasons, but it ended very well, with a call from an expert on the area of my project. He pretty much nailed the mystery of the refugees for me, now what I need to do is contact the appropriate archivist, and I may well have one of those singular pieces of information that make everything else fall into place. There's got to be a word for that, but I can't recall it.

I sit here, little white cat making it impossible for me to see the screen because she wants me to stroke her.

Today, life is all right.

My word for it and you is "bootastic".

I'm pleased you've had a better day today xxx I often think of you and your courage and feel awed that I know such a wonderful person.

As for the project it seems highly rewarding and frustrating in equal parts!

Oh Sarah, you make me smile, thank you!

You are also far too generous in your praise; without friends like you, I am not convinced I'd still be here.

So thanks for making me feel bootastic!

Wonderful news that you're making progress and that things are better.

Your project sounds so interesting xxx

Thanks Butterfly, you are kind.

The project is interesting, though the Entling suspects I am smothering it in detail!

My take on these things is always to go for detail, especially at the beginning. Surely having all the answers is far more valuable than leaving gaps. It can always be stripped back at a later date.

I'm intrigued to hear more as it progresses.
