*****************

We both have sinus infections now. 

Since December 31, 2024 we have been to urgent care two times.

 Both on antibiotics

Sleeping has been difficult due to stuffy heads and coughing

We often get up at 3 or 4 am because we can't sleep.

Have breakfast and start our day in the dark.

At least we were well and had a lovely visit with our daughter, son-in-law and 3 grand kitties.

Honoring Marg, Heaven's new Animal caregiver

 

Marg was one of the very first animal bloggers I met.  I would like to share a few memories I have of Marg and how she always was first in line to pawticipate in all the wild and crazy things we did in Blogville.  She loved  all creatures great and small.  She had a special bond with her two Donkeys Smoke and Joe.  Smoke graciously agreed to let Angels Madi and Raz ride on his back in February 2014 for the Valentine's day Parade. 

Joe and Angel Madi's alter ego Buttons the Clown also joined the parade.

Marg also fitted Madi with her very first hat, The pink Chef  hat, you see by the comments we leave on your blog seen here.  

Marvelous friend

Amazing smile
Rare gem of a lady
Great lover of all creatures great and small

Feline Friday with my Grandkitties and Nature too

Thank you for hosting!

 

Our son in law ordered this adorable welcome mat as a surprise for our daughter.

I have no idea why the woodwork is ruffly...

Mia aka Walmart Greeter is always first out to say hi and OH by the way you may rub my tortie furs and hold me too.  Which I did ASAP.  

She likes to tease us with that gorgeous tummy too

Frisco was 2nd out to say hi and I was honored to hold him.

Harper finally came out no holding.  I sat on the floor and was given the Haper Sniff of approval

Thankful Thursday hosted by 

Dearest Auntie HiC

I don’t mind sharing the “limelight” with Rocky & Cali, but just as a reminder, I was the ** “OG” Kat on Harland Hill.  

The following message is brought to all my friends, with sincere appreciation by me, Kat! 😹

❤️ Kat

Dearest Kat that was a very kind diary entry.

  Please tell Auntie what **OG STANDS FOR

MUCH LOVE

Auntie HiC

**It is used to mean the best, like GOAT (Greatest Of All Time)!

I've been unexpectedly MIA

Bryan and I are thankful to be on THIS side of the horrid Christmas Eve Present from his brother, who shared it with everyone!!  

We were invited for Lasagna which was yummy...but upon arriving we discovered his brother WAS SICK with some evil germ.  They should have canceled till they were well.

Bryan had it by the 26th I had it by the 29th..  We went to Urgent Care on Dec 31 diagnosed (thankful not Covid) with an evil😈 respiratory/viral

infection that, to quote the doctor, "has to run it course of 7-10 days"!!  Oh Joy

We were told there are all kinds of viruses, Covid, RSV, and Flu raging now.  If you are invited somewhere...inquire about the health of the hosts or better yet JOIN IN VIA 

FB or ZOOM.

Yesterday about mid morning we both started feeling a bit  jus a bit, better.
