Hello, friend, and thanks for visiting.  Please make yourself at home here.  In the summer, we can chat on the patio with a mimosa and a platter of shrimp.  In winter, we'll cozy up by the fire with some hot chocolate and your favourite liqueur.   I wish you a life filled with wonder.  Stop to marvel at creation.  Make someone smile whenever you can.  And shower affection on all creatures, great and small.  

Arthur, our 4-year-old Maine Coon cat.

Cathy - thank you for your kind words of condolence on the loss of my husband's mother. She as 102 years old and had lived a long and amazing life. We are sorry to see her go, but knew it was time.

Thanks Cathy. It was just Lynne and I, but I wanted it to be low key. Count all my friends on line, and it was quite a party.

Cathy, I have pleasant memories of visiting Banff and I see you have been to Park City. Thank you for the birthday wishes and I did have a special day, partially because of the wishes from Sudoku people like you!

Bless your cotton socks for thinking of me Cathy. Yes, ouchy is gone now, I hate being laid out having to spend the day in bed. Sick headaches suck!
I woke feeling very well this morning, and hubby and I have just got back from having a nice light lunch out at a little cafe we like to frequent.
I hope all is well for you and yours in your little corner of paradise. It has been wonderful getting back in contact with you. ♥

Thanks for the kind thoughts, Cathy.
I miss Tuxedo greatly, but it was the right thing to do. Give all your cats a hug and an extra one for the birthday boy!
Nigel has become very affectionate since Tux is gone. I guess he likes having me all to himself.

Hi Cathy,
I was sorry to hear of your loss. It is hard to lose anyone, and much more so at this time of the year.
I just wanted to send season's greetings to you and all your loved ones. I know you celebrate Christmas, so I hope you enjoy the season and have a wonderful time, and my best wishes for a happy new year as well. Take care, enjoy, have fun and know you have friends out there thinking of you. Cheers!

Cathy, I was sorry to read about the death of your MIL. In view of her struggles with dementia it may be a blessing that she is now reunited with her husband & they can rest in peace TOGETHER. Please extend my sympathy to your husband. As you & I both know it's so hard to lose your mother no matter when or how.

Hi Cathy! Have your ears been burning? You have been mentioned on Easy several times today. Many of us have missed seeing you around. I was actually thinking of your kitchen project & mine now that mymare is redoing hers. I hope you are as happy with your final results as I am with mine. It was such an ordeal to get it all done but in the long run well worth the effort!! Hope you are well. Please drop by & see us on Easy someday or feel free to pay a visit to my Page.

For your sweet post, Cathy. I talked to my dad yesterday (my brother is caring for him this week) and he sounded in very good spirits. He is almost 4 weeks post-op on the heart surgery and I think this is when he is suppose to really start to feel improvement. Just wish he didn't have to take so many meds...but maybe it won't be forever.
So wonderful to friends around the world sending prayers and warm wishes. Thank you!

Hi! Me again! Thanks for checking out my "baby" pictures! She has been so much fun and she is only a week and a half old! We are just in awe with her! She reminds me so much of her mom, Angi, when she was a baby.

Cathy, thanks for the upbeat birthday wishes. Not sure where my vim has gone. Maybe it chased my vigor out the door.

Nothing that the vet found explained my cat's behavior. The vet had no idea what it was or what caused it. His potassium was low (a side effect of diabetic/insulin dependant cats) so the vet gave him supplemental potassium. Unfortunately, it upset his tummy and he refused to eat. Since it's very important for a diabetic cat to eat, I decided to stop the potassium. It's the lesser of two evils. The vet checked his eyes and his vision was fine. He actually seemed somewhat possessed during the episode. He's been fine since that episode.
