I love this. Made me smile, made me giggle, made me laugh. I like Rhi, too. Really nice story. I needed cheering up today, and this was just perfect. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, I'm so happy I was able to cheer you up a bit. I could use that too, it's getting on towards a year since I lost mum.

Ianto has a great family, especially his sister. They made a horrible Christmas much better. So did Jack, even though he's such an embarrassment!

[excentric397]

Hope things get easier for you over time. You never stop missing people, I think, but it does get better.

Ianto does seem pretty fortunate to have Rhi. A lot of stories make her a baddy, but I think she and Johnny really care for Ianto. Wish I had someone like them in my life. I spend ALL my holidays alone, with no special dinner or anything. Yeah, did I mention I needed cheering up today? :)

There's no hope for Jack, I think. Like JB, they both can be so over-the-top, but that's kind of why we love them. Although I do love Ianto more. Really, I do. LOL Saw some great pictures of him in Cat On A Hot Tin Roof today. Oy!

Oooooh yummy! GDL is just awesome and gorgeous! I love Jack and JB, but Ianto is always the one I identify with the most.

Rhi is a bit rough and ready, Johnny even more so,. but I think they have good hearts. It's just that Ianto and Rhi don't have a lot in common anymore and they find it difficult to bridge the gap between them.

It sucks to be alone on holidays. I did make myself a Christmas dinner, but it was weird to be alone. Guess I'll get used to it. I got through mum's birthday okay, next will be the anniversary of her going into hospital (15th) then my birthday, which will be my second alone, then the anniversary of mum's passing (20th).

Sending hugs and hoping things will get cheerier for you *HUGS*

Awe at least Ianto is having a nice Christmas after all.

[badly_knitted]

It's turned out a lot better than he expected, that's for sure!

Thank you!

I laughed until my eyes watered, then laughed some more. Thanks, I really needed that. Three months ago today I lost my Dad. I know you lost your Mom nearly a year ago - how are you doing?

[badly_knitted]

*HUGS* I'm so sorry for your loss. Glad I could give you something to laugh at!

I'm doing okay mostly. I miss mum, but I talk to her all the time and that helps. 8 more days and it will be a year. It seems like only yesterday and at the same time, forever ago. It's so weird.

Thank you.

Lovely family reaction. Glad to see Coat part of the celebrations. and a proposal. Super story. Thanks

[badly_knitted]

No celebration is complete without Coat! It goes everywhere Jack does. Probably even sleeps with the boys sometimes!

Thank you!

Ianto poor
Fortunately, he has a family who loves him and Jack
finally everything is arranged almost!
good, Jack is incorrigible but at least Rhi can only be conquered by the care he takes to surround Ianto.

[badly_knitted]

Rhi likes Jack, I think, and she's glad Ianto has someone who loves him.

Ianto will be glad to get out of hospital, but his stay there is proving less unpleasant than it might have.

Thank you!
