Yesterday was Smoky’s drop off day for his I-131 treatment. Per the instructions for his admission, he’d been off of his methimazole for a week. Over the last week we’d been monitoring him carefully. He’d been more heat sensitive than usual, he’d been breathing a bit heavier than normal, and his skin was getting drier and itchier. On Sunday night I had to clean his ears and treat the driest of his skin with petroleum jelly because it was just so itchy and flaky that he was scratching it until it bled.

Yep, this is us

Midwestern through Western PA/NY Eastern OH folks!
This little one needs your help. He needs a home, either forever or foster ASAP. Check him out.

Are you taken yet. No? Well then, I present you with TUMMY FLOOF!

Jet is, as you will see at the link above, fully vaccinated, snipped, and ready to go to his new forever or foster home. If you’re interested, know someone who might be, or just want to look at more picture, please click through to the website above (linked again here because I’m evil) and contact the blog owner. She’ll get right back to you.

You know you need him in your life
Seriously, you do. How can you ignore this face?
All wedding stuff all the time!!! And squirrels.
At least, that’s what my life feels like right now. (Ok, the wedding part, not the squirrel part, more on that later.) Anyway, I just wanted to let folks who might be in the shopping frame of mind know a couple of things.

Would you like some lockjaw with your jewelry?
I’m really, really trying not to turn this blog into a Regretsy clone. But some of this stuff is just SO bad that I have to share it with all of you.
Lucky you.

Yesterday’s family gathering
Hi, all-
Photos from yesterday’s family party for Aunt Jeanne are here. I did not realize how many photos I took until it was time to post them. Feel free to post your own photos on the share site.

P.S. Don’t you hope you look this good when you turn 90?

Just a quick ???? for all of you
This came in to my inbox the other day from Etsy and I just… I cannot explain it.
Wedding stuff. Not ours for once!
There is a lot of wedding stuff going on in my life at the moment. We’re under the 90 day mark and it just occurred to me today that I actually have to investigate getting our marriage license. Also, I have a ton of work to do on the sheet music for the choir. Yay?
I love cashmere
Those of you who know me know that I refer to the cold part of the year as Cashmere Season. (The hot part of the year is Involuntary Sweating Season. I hate that part, thank goodness it is almost over.) I have even gotten Geoff into some cashmere sweaters. Naturally, I never pay full price. Paying full price is for suckers. Regular readers around here also know that I get daily emails from Etsy. This little gem popped up in my inbox the other day and I just didn’t know what to make of it. Especially in AUGUST. Who advertises this in August???
