I hope old friends who are reading this will forgive me for a slight change to the usual old posts. </p><p>The cottage is still here and no flooding lately which is a bonus. Nothing much has changed in the cottage, the garden still grows during the growing season, repairs are attended to and I always seem to have a paint brush ready for a spot of paint when it's needed.</p><p>One change is that Ark and I are now the cottage keepers. Just us. </p><p>Freya, my red headed nutty little Cavalier unfortunately caught a virus back in the Summer. As far as I know, along with over twenty other dogs in the village who all visited the stream in the park at the back of the cottage in the hot weather. It was a long hot Summer and we were all a little pushed as to where we could go and where we could walk with our dogs. </p><p>Freya was violently ill and from the first signs of the virus died within twelve hours. From one day to being a very healthy, slim, quick, little Ruby Cavalier to a very ill little dog who couldn't be saved. She went to sleep and never woke again in the cottage beside me. She was always Tony's dog and I'm sure she really only put up with me because she had to, but it broke my heart to think I had kept her safe for all that time since Tony died and then such a stupid thing that I had no control over killed her. </p><p>I changed my vet before anyone asks.... Nothing would have saved her, Freya died here at the cottage and not in a place that was strange to her. Freya lived life to the full. Never a dull moment with beloved Freya. Ark and I miss her, the cottage is slightly quieter and yet, it will always seem she is around. <br /></p><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCxHsabdLJ8MMdYbu5SrvsGvx7iOiBEkSmo_Re8dHJ4LLZu4heXqw7axULuip2a7D7T6gqZpOyeXjqLcC2sHijnJyTsnlKoSniMB5GSWjZYsRGwzi2gpjgXNyp32sQMhCpoC_39wWhyIZO/s960/IMG_2286.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="718" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCxHsabdLJ8MMdYbu5SrvsGvx7iOiBEkSmo_Re8dHJ4LLZu4heXqw7axULuip2a7D7T6gqZpOyeXjqLcC2sHijnJyTsnlKoSniMB5GSWjZYsRGwzi2gpjgXNyp32sQMhCpoC_39wWhyIZO/s320/IMG_2286.JPG" /></a></div><p></p><p>It's taken me months to be able to relay about Freya, but I know many of Soggibottom friends already know.

Soggibottom is still here, although at times it seems a very long road, especially when your never sure where that road is going to lead to. Little Soggibottom dog De Ark walking along a broken road the day this photo was taken and would still have kept walking except the road had fallen into the sea.<br />
I believe the road is being repaired. Takes time to repair, but it will get there :-) XXX<br />

Poor little garden.<br />
Must admit, I don't do snow either, but even as I type, I know my little garden is now well under more snow and keeping warm under there. The wind blows and the cottage is warm.<br />
It all goes away in the end.<br />
Can it please not melt all at once and give the South West of Devon flooding :-) :-) :-) XXX<br />

<br />
Most things are precious to me. Time is most precious of all. I never seem to have enough time in my day to do all the things I want to do let alone all the things I LOVE TO DO.<br />
Hello again Soggibottom blog.<br />
<br />
Have missed you and all my friends greatly. But healing time was needed and my excuse is that, I AM A WIDOW YER KNOW. :-)<br />
After three years it must be time to come back.<br />
<br />
Hopefully anyone reading this, will have a smile on their face and laugh with me during the next year or so, I hope :-) because Soggibottom hasn't gone anywhere. She is still here and still feels the same as the first time I walked through the door.<br />
<br />
Actually the first time I walked through the door I thought OH !<br />
My face must have been a picture but it was never recorded on camera.<br />
<br />
What a mess. <br />
<br />
Anyone that has visited Soggibottom knows she has a warm feeling that creeps through and it's a calm that sinks right to your bones. You can do anything with such kind, calm thoughts that hit you when you walk through a door (to a mess of OH BOY... how can we buy this and fix it ?).<br />
We did.<br />
Tony and I became cottage keepers :-)<br />
We fixed her. Not that she needed much fixing really.<br />
Ten or so years :-)<br />
We did things over time. <br />
Little old cottage saved me years ago. Moving house and leaving all that you know is not all as it's cracked up to be.<br />
I think it must be in the top twenty of things you shouldn't do if you really don't need to be stressed. Don't move house, don't pack all that you have, do not follow a hired van with all your worldly goods plus beloved rabbit in the back and follow it so some unknown place you know nothing about just because your other half decide he needs a new job after seeing an advert. HE GOT THE JOB.<br />
Selling most that you have and downsizing into a little house that you hate then go house hunting again...<br />
Was it fun ?<br />
NO.<br />
After two years of looking, THERE SHE WAS..... perfectly awful little cottage. <br />
<br />
Being a widow isn't all it's cracked up to be either, but as my beautiful aunt once told me when I asked her, "how do I do this ? ".<br />
She replied, you just do. She was right. I still have her voice on my answer phone and when I need to hear her voice I replay it. SAD... I KNOW.<br />
<br />
Somewhere in I cloud where ever that is :-)<br />
I have a perfect picture of my aunt and I.<br />
<br />
My youngest lad tonight. Mum are you in ?.<br />
Well..... will be.<br />
Mutts bless em walked and they never ever get a quick walk around the park at the back of the cottage anymore. WE GO PLACES .<br />

<br />
Things are still there. Just not at the moment....... Mum, has a new laptop. So forgive mistakes :-) <br />
Mark, fixed old one by putting it into a bin. NO !<br />
AW....<br />
Hey at least this one will let me in and I don't have to threaten it or give it awful passwords.<br />
Little guy bless him brought me a new one. <br />
<br />
It's not been easy over the last few years. But life really does go on to all my beloved friends I have met here. What ever life gives you. Nothing that can't be over come.With a bit of thought and time. <br />
<br />
You NOSE WHO YOU ARE :-) which leads me to a meeting last month in the cold. I can't drive and take pics, so no pics.<br />
Awfully cold day and windy. But mutts and I and Delores and our beloved daughter's too.<br />
Aren't we the luck ones... yes we are. xxx<br />

This is Olivia's Teddy Bear WITH NEW SAFETY eye's. Unfortunately Olivia's little dog Pip had decided to taste Bear's eye's and Bear had come off worse. No photo's of Bear with no eye's but Bear was in a slightly distressed state.<br />
<br />
<b>Even safety eye's have plastic or metal parts behind them so never ever think they are full proof. The only full proof eye's on a bear or toy for a child under a certain age are the ones that are embroidered on the material of a toy (hopefully). </b><br />
<br />
Luckily Olivia is old enough for her Bear with safety eye's. Olivia was also a day older yesterday .<br />

Emily's bear after her replaced paws, new nose and a very long bath. She has been well fed and has a little more stuffing. Also a new little squeaker. <br />

Emily and her bear. Quite a while ago. <br />
<br />
When I clicked on my mail,<b> I don't often click any more.</b> Photo's of the little bear.<br />
My first thought was, no way can I restore Pepper bear to her good looks in this photo. <br />
<br />
BESIDES, I am an ARTIST..... Then laughed out loud.<br />
<br />
It seems as other bear hospital's around the South West haven't even replied to emails. AW.<br />
Bear's no matter what they are made of are very special. Especially to little girls of seven.<br />
<br />
I cannot give back the years of love. I don't want to. Instead, I asked Emily what she wanted.<br />
Little bear has spent time in a bath then drying out in good weather. HUM.....<br />
Poor little lady.<br />
I kept her head above water don't worry and I think she has enjoyed bubbles.<br />
She has also spent time sunning herself in my little back garden.<br />

If you do, all is lost. Never give up when hard times hit or sadness comes. Sadness is always there, but you go on. <br />

Thank you so much to my friend Julie and her husband Mike for inviting Freya Rose Blossom and me to gatecrash their short break from work this week.<br />
From the South West, keep heading NORTH.. I did that and I got lost. <br />
Never trust sat navs, always have a map book and read it properly.<br />
I found amazing English scenery I had never viewed before as I drove along roads trying to find my way to Chatsworth. <br />
Two hours later after having had a great time I found Chatsworth house.<br />
I found the farm shop I have to be honest then Mike and Julie came to my rescue.<br />

Soggibottom cottage. Daft name for a cottage, unless your a happy go lucky guy and know that is the name that suits the place you live.<br />
<br />
Tony the soggibottom carpenter, such a happy go lucky guy.<br />
<br />
I have <strike>borrowed, pinched, stolen</strike> borrowed can be forgiven and it is the word that suits. I have borrowed the photo's from a friend.<br />
They show my very happy go lucky, tomorrow is another day, beautiful caring, guy at his best.<br />
Skilled, articulate, caring, loving, peaceful. Just a few words. <br />
<br />
Over the last few months it has been very hard to keep up two blogs and try to pretend nothing has been different.<br />
It has been a strange time when one of us always tells others who have asked he is fine. Still told me was fine a few seconds before he left soggibottom. <br />

I miss my blog proof reader.<br />
I will dearly miss the brave guy who has never ever complained once when he has been in so much pain over the last few months. My guy. Tony, I hope somewhere you are proof reading this and approve. Short and ultra sweet. I never do short and sweet. This might be a bit longer.<br />

I promise to blog, such silly things, never to be a diva and never not care. Always be myself. <br />
Feed and house the bees, feed the birds. Take mutt out to our usual haunts. Cuddle her lots and hug her more because she misses you already and has gone so very quiet..... <br />
Just like Soggibottom. It is very quiet.........<br />
Thank everyone who has already sent such lovely words and cards.<br />
Thanks again to all those that say. BLOG AGAIN.<br />
Thank you most to someone who has always given me a good perspective on the most important things of life.... Silly stuff is silly stuff and things are just <strike>JUNK</strike>, things..... replaceable. You my dearest husband are irreplaceable.<br />
Thank you for teaching me the most important things, love, laugh and care. <br />
Not to be my usual outspoken self too much :-) <br />
I won't forget. I promise x x x </div>

Freya Rose Blossom is now a healthier 9.9 kilo's. An acceptable weight for her size.<br />
Maybe she is slower at snaffling cat food or maybe we have been quicker at removing left overs from Frankie de tabby. <br />

My mum, me and my Nana. I was in hospital and tried to bite my lip to stop crying as I knew they were about to go. Kids know these things.<br />
My kids know this memory because I grow sweet peas in our garden when I can. A memory I often relay to them, now I can say this is the photo, my sense of smell takes me back to sweet pea's.<br />
The flowers in my arms, need you guess.<br />

An even earlier photo. one of a fat faced little kid and another dog. Looking at the photo, I don't know my mum and dad or my Nana by looking at them. They are so thin. <i> Fat little kid who isn't smiling</i>.<br />

Same era, same place. Me, my mum and my Nana who taught me to sew. We were at Lands End in Cornwall, again in the LATE 50's. I best tell you it was the LATE 50's, incase anyone thinks it was even earlier which would make me even older.<br />

Thanks mum for keeping such precious memories. <br />
x x x<br />
My proof reader might not be available at times but I promise to do my best and stay away from silly distractions.<br />
I will do Soggibottom posts and remember that no matter what comes along, always smile, never moan and groan about the things that happen in life that you can't change.<br />
English saying, best foot forward, upwards and onwards. Promise to see you all soon. Probably very soon.... <br />

This is Tilly May our granddaughter with her quilt that has driven me mad at times over the last year. A whole year !!!!<br />
It's not as if I'm a great quilter I'm not. <br />
I'm pleased she liked it. As for her hair, well, she had just got up and was supposed to be getting ready for school.<br />

A deadly menace washed up by the savage storms we've had recently is poisoning dogs at a rate of one a day.<br />
Several animals have died after licking or nibbling on
boulder-sized chunks of palm oil which have been found littering beaches
in Devon and Cornwall.<br />
<br />
Hundreds more have been left writhing in agony with their owners facing huge vets bills for emergency treatment.<br />
The strange blobs emit a stench of diesel and were thought
to be firelighters. but the source of the pollution has yet to be found. The Maritime and Coastguard Agency identified it as solidified palm
oil, a substance used in food, soaps, shampoos and biofuels.<br />

It
is harmless to humans but can kill dogs unless they get swift treatment
which involves being fed charcoal to soak up the oil and induce
vomiting.<br />
The first reported casualty came when a three-year-old miniature schnauzer was killed after ingesting a single, tiny lump.<br />

The Soggibottom bears are still around. One Panda, ready to make his way over our little bridge before Christmas. <br />
Many thanks to everyone who viewed and donated to the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=VADy38jzGIQ"><span style="font-size: large;">The tuk tuk project. </span></a><br />
The tuk tuk project was a couple of posts ago on Soggibottom, but if you missed it click on the link above it will give you all the information you need.<br />
I have it in good authority the amount raised so far is over Fifty Thousand Dollars.<br />
Enough to buy and help the up keep of a tuk tuk. At night time it can be converted to a mobile Taco canteen selling taco's to help sustain The Sala Monkey School in Cambodia.<br />

One of my friends reminded me Soggibottom and water go together well.<br />
Winter has arrived here in Devon, at the moment it means rain and rising water levels. Our first flood warning of the year has already been given. <br />
Winter for Soggibottom means never being complacent about the recent <strike>ditch</strike> water relief channel that was constructed last year to help the village where we live with flooding. <br />

Once bitten, twice shy and all that. <br />
Or in our case bitten as in quite a few times of having our home flooded. At least it gives a great perspective of how lucky we are living in this part of the world where "STUFF", really is just stuff and it gets fixed. It dries out and eventually we go back to normal. <br />
We can still turn on the water tap and know if the ditch and river outside has gruesome water in it, at least our tap water is clean.<br />

Way back in the Summer on one of our walks with Freya we noticed how stagnant the water was on our lake walk. It had been hot and no rain for weeks. The water was a beautiful shade of green, Pike were gasping for breath at the surface of the water. Although it was a hot day, it didn't look good to paddle in let alone want to drink. We wouldn't let Freya dip her paws into the green stinking water. It was so bad, we gave our lake walks a miss for ages. <br />

There is another Mad Monkey project that's ongoing. Clean water.<br />
So far 20 newly dug wells are already helping communities that have no access to clean water in Cambodia.<br />
By clicking on the link below you can see for yourself. Clean water means health.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEADvM3gtek">The Mad Monkey clean water project</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> It will make you think twice the next time you go to your own water source. </span><br />
