To continue with where we left off last week — one or more cats urinating in places they are not supposed to — I took Pretty Boy Floyd to Dr. Val on Monday. She couldn’t find anything specifically wrong with him, but the ultrasound on his bladder indicated some “junky” … Continue reading →
What have I gotten myself into? Odor. Overpowering. Cover nose. That cuts it. A little. I opened my eyes. How austere. Looks nothing like the tundra. I seem to be alone. I lifted my head. The odor abated some. I stood up. Not so overpowering. I shook my body to … Continue reading →
Lisa opened the last box in the once-crowded store room. She didn’t know what was in the box, but she couldn’t believe she was finally down to the last one. There must be some kind of celebration she should do after she finished this one. She’d been working steadily for … Continue reading →
