Merry Christmas!!

Hope all have a wonderful day and got everything you wanted from Santa.

We have a very good day. My husband and I don't get each other gifts any more because we get what we need and can afford throughout the year. I think sometimes that is better as it gives you more time to do the things you like than stressing out about getting gifts and returning gifts you have received. My sister and her hubby came over and we had a nice dinner and sat and chatted for a while. They had to leave pretty early as she was getting really tired and needed to rest. It was nice though. Too bad my daughter and my sister's sons could not make it.

Well, as always, thanks for the read. Hope you come back again.

Wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

I can't believe it is Christmas eve already. Man the year has just flown. I am amazed at how much time has passed when someone mentions a well-known event. Anyway, I want to wish all a very Merry Christmas and New Year.

I'm fixing a roast tomorrow and my sister and her husband are coming to eat. This is the sister who just had the stomach surgery and she isn't feeling the greatest so my husband and I invited them over. I will just have to throw in a couple more potatoes and other stuff for us all. We usually play Mexican Dominoes but it would be too hard on her. At least she doesn't have to worry about fixing a meal.

I know it's too late to get more Christmas gifts but you can always get something for yourself that you didn't receive. Be sure and check my stores out for that wanted item.

Thanks very much for readying my blog. Hope you enjoy it.

Sister's operation...

Well, my sister that had the operation isn't doing the greatest. I hoped and prayed she wouldn't have a hard time. Apparently she has water on her lungs and some problem with her heart or something. She wasn't too clear when I talked to her. I was going to go to the hospital to see her but woke up with a stupid headache so don't think the hospital would be a soothing place to get rid of it. I know she wants to go home as I was in the hospital for 12 days and thought I would go nutz. Four of them when I had the operation and 8 because I got blood clots in my left leg. Boy getting old is really fun. Better than the alternative though.

Hope all of you are well and remain that way.

There is still time to order for Christmas. If you find something you want to purchase I will do my best to see it gets to you before Christmas.

As always, thanks for reading my blog. I appreciate it.

How is Clyde?

Hi again.

More info on how Clyde is doing. Whatever his problem is I don't think it's hyperthyroid as he has been taking the medicine for 2 1/2" weeks and he is still as skinny as ever. I will use all the rest of the prescription over the holidays just to make sure as I don't know how long he has to take the medicine before it starts making a difference. If anyone knows feel free to leave a comment on the bottom of this post. I guess if it's not hyperthyroid then it's back to the vet to see if we can find out what he has.

We have been extra busy this month it seems as there were so many animal visits to the doctor, plus our visits and then my older sister had to have surgery for the almost the same stomach problem I was operated on last year. Her's was slightly different though but still required the same surgery. Hopefully she will get out of the hospital today. I had to go yesterday to have the sonograms on my stomach and carotid arteries in my neck. Thank God they have improved so don't have to check them again for another 9 months.

I have been trying to list in my store, send out the items purchased and a bunch of other things I normally do and it has been really crazy. Hope you all check out my stores in the next few weeks as I will be adding lots of cool items. I think the cut off date for getting the purchased items for Christmas will be December 19th. I'm not sure they will get to the destination by Christmas if they are shipped after that date.

Anyway I hope all of you are well and looking forward to the holidays. I wish you all a great Christmas and New Year in case I don't get another post completed before the holidays get here.

Thanks for taking time out to read my little blog.

My Skinny Cat, Clyde..

Well we have put Clyde on medicine for hyperthyroid as the blood test showed he was borderline and nothing else was found to make him lose weight. I am hoping that the medicine makes him get back to his lion like self. He just seems so light and insubstantial now. He doesn't seem to be so hungry so maybe the medicine is helping. The above picture is of him before he lost all the weight. As you can see he was a lot more substantial. Maybe too much.
Anyway If anyone is interested I will be blogging on how he is doing.


We found out that our little Corky has a small kidney problem so we have him on a food that is supposed to help. This month was really expensive as we spent around $600 on just two of our animals. Hopefully they will all stay well as being retired we are on a fixed income and can only spend so much money. We are one of those people that don't have a big savings account. Lady our other dog goes to get her shots next - another $100 cost.

Hopefully, I will get more sales so if the cats, dogs or us need medical attention we can afford to treat us. That is one fear I have that one of us or our furry babies will get something that we can't pay for. I pray that won't happen.

Anyway - Happy Thanksgiving to you all. Eat a lot of turkey and watch the games or whatever you do on a holiday. Just think only a month until Christmas. Wow, this year has really gone fast. Too fast if you ask me.

To all who read my little blog - thanks.
