@FourWalls is right. There's no room for you so you must be bedding down on the couch.

She's so very stand offish even after 11 years @sallypup I'm just glad she's not as big as Prissy was, she too was between 16 and 18 pounds.

What is the matter about Irenes? I know some Irene, without the final S , it's a very common name here.

The s at the end of the name Irene was to show multiples, I have not heard that name here in years. Mostly I will hear names like Rosa, Maria, Carmen, Blanca, Hilde or Elizabeth even the name Linda is not heard as often here.

@rebelann The name of the mother in law of my brother was Linda. Carmen and Blanca are very unusual here, they are Spaniard names.
