UPDATES ON BIRTHDAY AND G-PA

MOM SENDS A TON OF THANK YOUS FOR ALL THE LOVELY BIRTHDAY WISHES YESTERDAY...
TO SAY MOM HAD A COLORFUL BIRTHDAY WOULD BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT
SHE BOUGHT SOME NEW WALKING SHOES
WITH DAY GLOW GREEN ALL OVER THEM.
 THE WERE SO BRIGHT I HAD TO HIDE MY EYES.  MOM LOVES VIBRANT COLORS
DAD SAID HE MIGHT WALK A FEW FEET BEHIND HER AT THE MALL IN THE MORNING. MOL


HER ICE CREAM CAKE WAS DECORATED RED WHICH IS HER FAVORITE COLOR


MOM MIGHT BE OLDER THAN DIRT BUT HER REFLEXES ARE FASTER THAN GREASED LIGHTNING.  IF I HAD THOUGHT JUST STICK MY TONGUE OUT INSTEAD OF SNIFFING I WOULD HAVE HAD LICK
OF THE CAKE!
******************
Yesterday at 9:30 am they took the stomach tube out of G-pa.  They  started him on a liquid diet of jello, broth, juice and coffee which he will have for 3 meals.  If all goes well, he will be on a soft diet tomorrow. THIS was his 3rd major obstruction in 4 years...we are hoping he will realizes he has to CUT some things he likes out of his diet...such as
French baguettes...which are hard as rocks and hard to digest.
We both thank you for all your purrs and concerns and we'll keep you posted.
Hugs Madi and Mom

MOM SAYS THE HOUSE IS BACK 
IN ORDER.

WELL I LIKED IT LIKE IT WAS IN DECEMBER!!

MY CHRISTMAS TREE REPLACED THE CHAIR FOR DECEMBER.....
I ENJOYED  LOOKING AT IT TOO.
 THE WHITE CHAIR WAS MOVED TO THE CORNER BY THE DINING ROOM TABLE. MOM PUT A SHEET OVER IT.....BUT 
NOT 
TO KEEP MY FURS OFF....
BECLAWS
DAD WAS WORRIED THE SUN MIGHT FADE IT...TO WHICH I SAID
DUH DAD IT IS WHITE, THE SUN CANNOT FADE IT.

I MISS IT BEING HERE...I HAD SOME GOOD NAPS.
WHEN MY SIS SAW IT COVERED, SHE SAID SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE WORRIED ABOUT SPAGHETTI SAUCE GETTING ON IT THAN THE SUN FADING IT.

I THINK SHE WAS IMPLYING MY DAD IS A MESSY EATER...WHAT DO YOU THINK?
HUGS,
MADI
