    Linda,
    Cream Puff looks so sweet, those eyes are beautiful. We love our furbabies don't we?

    A few years ago I was doing sub/Q fluids (lactated ringers) for one of my kitties. She did really well for 2 yrs on the sub/Q fluids. She then developed liver disease at age 16, on top of the kidney disease and sadly I had to have her put to sleep.

    Now another one of my kitties has hyperthroidism (he's 14 yrs old). I treat him twice a day for that. It's expensive $64.00 a month for that medication.




    All 3 of my cats are hyperthyroid and I have a black lab who is HYPOthyroid! Im passing out pills left and right Actually 2 of the cats had the radioisotope tx which killed off the hyperactive thyroid cells permanently. The other cat could not do that tx so I have to put a small amount of gel on her ear everyday to keep the thyroid levels down. My lab takes a pill twice a day just like it was a doggie treat.

    Reminder to self: never get 4 pets all the same age again! its geriatric city around here lol.

    My feet with Oprah's house (left) & guest house (green roof) in Nassau, Bahamas, serving as a backdrop. (If you look carefully, notice my big toenails are halfway grown in now...TAKE THAT, TAXOL!)

    Sometimes I think it's sinful to have so much money. Hmmm..but I wouldn't refuse it.

    wow kats!!! i love the way the reflections in that bean sculpture break up all the geometrics of the surrounding buildings into curvy lines. Really cool!

    Thanks for posting this pic.

    peace,

    I have goose-bumps while looking at these photos! It's truly amazing the "stories" that you've captured...

    a day at the beach, a pink fountain, much welcomed Cardinals, incredible shots looking up and down, a beautiful stranger with a handsome son, longer toe nails, a chalet fit for a queen and her king, a shiny bean, LOVEx2, a beautiful cat...

    Thanks for sharing those incredible moments!

    Those roses are beautiful, I love the color.

    My daffodils are about ready to open. Yesterday we had temps in the upper 60's and last week we had a few days in the 70's now today it hasn't even reached 32 degrees. We've have snow flurries blowing around today with wind chills making it feel like it's in the teens.

    I've had enough of this crazy weather.

    Hi everyone,

    Beautiful flowers ... have to love Spring!!

    Took this pics bellow
    during a mountain hike the other weekend,
    on one of the ON moments of my machine.
    Definitively I have to get me a new one ...
    It's getting very disappointing and obviously,
    it just has to have its ON and OFF moments
    when I am in need of it!!
    Anyways ...
    This is the oddest flowering tree I ever saw ...
    This called my attention when I was at the pick
    and saw it from far away,
    coz this was a field of flowering trees
    quite unique and standing out
    from the all Spring green around.
    When coming down and getting closer and closer,
    all of them were looking like this. image

    Had to ask a lady that was in there
    what was with the trees, image
    this led to a very long conversation
    and certainly the lady was very proud of her work.
    Since she doesn't manage to have fruits
    because of the birds,
    and as she loves having the birds around
    just as much as she loves to have fruits,
    this was her way to keep the birds away ...
    Now ...
    I'm still wandering
    how annoyed the lady must have gotten
    with the birds to get the patience to do this
    in all her trees...
    with a ladder and tree by tree,
    and branch by branch, she hung in ALL OF THEM
    plastic stripes in white and red
    with an almost mathematical distance
    of 10cm=3.9inch between each stripe ...
    Was quiet funny,
    to see her satisfaction looking at the birds
    flying around, and around, and around,
    and not even approaching her trees,
    and she saying:
    "AH! Now I can rest!! And just wait...
    Coming the Fall I will take it off
    and coming next Spring I will put that again!

    hahaha ...

    Now I have a traditional home made compote jar
    waiting for me when I hike in there again.
    Have to take a bigger backpack so she said, haha...

    Hugs.

    I took this picture last Sunday while waiting to go into the Tenessee Aquarium in Chattanooga. My grandaughter pointed out the nest, in it is a female Mourning Dove with her baby.

    You ladies take such beautiful pictures!

    Oh Lisa, your new granddaughter is beautiful. I have one that is 4 1/2 and the other one is 2. I doubt I'll ever have another grandbaby that size. Don't you just love the smell of a new baby? Their poop doesn't even stink (if they're breastfed LOL).
