Wasn't I just here six months ago?!

Aw no. I knows this place.
Bunnah-pedi and a clean bill of health and away we go!
Aaaaand... two hours after our return, Sammy's still hiding in his pen! Gonna take lots of lovin's and goodies to earn forgiveness - as always!

Intimate New Blog


I love this picture of Sammy. He's emitting such a 'tude!
I found a brand-spanky-new blog today, but I'm hesitant to post the link, as it's "rated M for mature", and a couple of disclaimers are posted as such. The lady's pretty secretive and discreet. Smart move considering the material and pics she posts! Soykes! I just like her because we can compare nightmares, which I'm also plagued by and cannot post here.
I hope she does well and safely with it, and if you all want to wish her luck through my site, I'll pass on the encouragement!
Yesterday was so awsome! Went to the first really nice Rock Cats ball game with Ally and Micah, and they're so much fun! We even got a bit sunburned. How I managed that is odd, because my regular daily moisturizer is an SPF30. Ok! Today I'm feeling really sick, (both sides of my spine actually feel bruised!) so I'm taking it pretty easy. I had really wanted to go out and do some errands, but no go. Sammy has a vet appointment tomorrow afternoon anyway, so I can get it all done in the morning - I hope! Wish me luck!!
Hugs y'all!

WHEW!

Hee-hee, okay! I'm done!
Piles of detritus heaped up here, I see! So, let's get the pooper-scooper out. In case you all haven't noticed, there's no picture today. Soon, I promise!

First things first: the knee's all right so far. It's not one hundred percent, I still have to do my exercises at home, but I'm done with physical therapy. Still hurts, though. I see the doc again in eight weeks and we'll take it from there. I'm not allowed to run or go hiking at all, though, at least not yet!

So okay, I have to share this with all of you, and so help me, I wish I was able to grab the camera fast enough! A couple of weeks ago, J and I got up, let Sammy-cakes out as usual, but he did not want his morning nom-nom's or his litter box! Darned excited, though, I'll say that for sure! He had his nose shoved under the apartment door, all tensed up, ears hitched so far forward that they were nearly under the door with the nose, what the hell's going on??? I'd never seen his eyes so big, either. I sniggered to myself at this. He just looked so cute (and besides, there obviously wasn't anything wrong). And then I saw what had precedence over his morning routine...

...two little black paws shot in under the door! And Sam all of a sudden turned into Jack Dempsey! Buddabuddabuddaddaddadda he went at those rude intruding toes under the door, it was so funny! Well of course, the feet disappeared, but just momentarily. They had decided it wise to call for backup.

Try to picture, as I did, a little lost black little kitty, meandering around the apartment building, finally stumbles upon something inside one of these doors that's interesting, and decides to take a whack at it, literally. By this time, the adventurer must have been on its side all squashed up against the door with all four legs batting away at whatever exotic gorgon boxing it back! Hoo-whee! Oh, I wanted at least one picture of this to share! Stupid camera batteries all dead and stuff.

So, Sammy did eventually either get bored or felt he had effectively beaten off this nasty trespasser, because he finally came to breakfast. But the kitty hung around for another hour and a half! I personally haven't seen it since. It must have belonged to somebody in the building, because it was thankfully declawed. I just wanted to share that with you.

Exercise comes in many forms

Yay, here we go again! Back in physical therapy! How are ya, RG? Woo-hoo! I went to my orthopedic specialist last week, because my wonky knee (ACL replacement) had been talking at me during my little workouts. No real pain, just not quite right. And, according to the x-rays, my patella is misaligned. Poo. I don't mind all of this. For one thing, it facinates me! And of course, we may as well do it now while I'm unemployed and not have to worry about time off from work etc.. The downside is that if PT doesn't rectify the problem, we'll have to go through surgery again. That shouldn't happen. We have high hopes for the therapy!
The above pics were taken at the Ndw Britain Museum of Americain Art. I don't remember the name of the artist whom constructed the mural. It's made entirely out of disposeable cups! So cool! In the foreground is the unmistakeable work of glass artist Dale Chihuly. This was on a playdate I had with mun-in-law Candy last October.
Sammy and I are always so happy to read your comments! Hugs & Binkies to you all!
