Hello and welcome to the home of Word of the Week. A nice and simple weekly linky, with everyone welcome to pop by and share. The idea of the linky is to reflect back on your past week and share it with us. It’s great if you can sum it up in a word or phrase, hence giving us your Word of the Week. My word this week is ‘Sabrina’ and you can read more about that below.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING IF YOU WISH TO LINK UP! FROM NOW ON, THOSE NOT FOLLOWING THE RULES WILL BE DELETED.
I’m not totally strict on using just a word or phrase. But please try to stick to the theme of summing up your week. There are not too many rules with this linky, just remember to read at least another couple of posts in the link up after adding your link. And please only add one post to the link up each week, multiple posts will be deleted. I will read and comment on all posts and tweet them out for you. I also have a Pinterest board devoted to Word of the Week. Please add the badge below to your post so that others may find us and join in. If you comment or tweet then please use the hashtag #WotW
Word of the Week is open from 6am on Friday Morning to 12 noon on Monday. Plenty of time to join in!
I also have a new link up open on Mondays for your recipes and food related posts. And, if you like to write bookish posts don’t forget my link up on my other blog At Home A Lot, Bookworms Monthly.
If you are unfamiliar with the Word of the Week linky then please feel free to ask any questions. New linkers are always welcome, we love to hear what you have been up to in the past week.
MY WORD OF THE WEEK – Sabrina
This week I’ve chosen the word Sabrina, the name of my old cat. She’s been with us longer than any cat we have owned, and we have owned a few. I still remember when we got her, we heard an old lady down the road was giving away kittens and couldn’t resist a peak. We didn’t expect to come back with two. We called them Salem and Sabrina because my daughter, at the time, was a fan of Sabrina the Teenage witch and her cat Salem.
Poor Sabrina was the runt of the litter, she was tiny but Salem looked after her. We lost Salem to cancer which was really sad, but Sabrina lived on. When we moved house, nearly 11 years ago now, we had four cats, Sabrina is the only survivor. (But of course, we have Ash now too.)
This week Sabrina has cost me a small fortune in vet bills as she isn’t well at all and I’m nervous for her test results. I’ve been having my sleep disturbed because of her meowing all night. I hate seeing her uncomfortable, but she’s still eating, drinking and pottering around, so we have no plans yet until we hear what the vet has to say. Fingers crossed.
Last week we had our celebrations for the Little Man, we included a trip to the theatre which was a youth production and felt like a cross between Sabrina the Teenage witch meets High School Musical! Tomorrow is my last summer birthday as Star turns 19!
Now it’s over to you, what word or phrase sums up your week this week?
Thank you for hosting, and I hope Sabrina gets better soon! We have a 17-year-old cat with squamous cell carcinoma. Since he was diagnosed, I thought he only had a few months, but it’s been years since, and he’s still here with us, eating, sleeping, and doing everything he was doing as a healthy cat. So don’t give up; cats do have seven lives.
Poor Sabrina, hope she will be okay. The theatre trip sounded like fun. Happy 19th birthday to Star, hope she has a nice birthday. #WotW
I hope Sabrina will be okay. I remember Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Salem was my favourite character! Happy 19th to Star, hope she has a lovely day
Sabrina sounds like such a sweetheart. The poor thing, so sorry she has been unwell. I hope her tests come back OK.
Happy birthday to Star! I hope she’s had a great day. x
Fingers crossed that Sabrina pulls through. We know the heartache when a pet is unwell. But please do be prepared for different outcomes, just in case. Happy birthday to your 19 year old too!
