Hello there

     




            I hope that this background isn't too busy for you
          to read off of.  If it is, well, sorry.

          I have been meaning to update on all kinds of things
          but I just haven't gotten around to it.

           Dallas -- my 19 yr old cat -- she is doing 100%
           better.  Which is amazing to me.  This past week-
           end I was thinking it may be her "time".  I took 
           her to the vet Friday and he gave her a shot to
           help with pain and to help her back get better.
           Friday night around midnight Dallas had a
           seziure.  Scared me to death.  Called Dr B first
           thing Saturday morning and he said it isn't uncommon
            in older cats to have seziures.  Unless she has one
            that she takes forever to come out of or has one
             right after another he really can't diagonis unless
            he sees her have one.   He just did blood work less
            than 2  weeks ago and it didn't show anything. 
            Anyways, Dallas didn't eat anything at all from
            friday to sunday nite.  I was really scared for
            her all she did was sleep.  When she need the litter
            box she used the floor instead.  Sunday night mom
            told me to open a can of tuna to see if she would eat
            that.  Answers to prayers she did.  And she started
            getting better right then.  Started acting better,
             eatting and making it to the litter box. 

            Sadie is doing great.  Dr B gave her a shot yester-
            day.  This time it was to hopefully stop one of her
            esphogus spams BEFORE it happens.  And she had
            lost a tenth of a pound so he is worried about that.
            Doesn't sound like a lot of weight but when you
            only weigh 5.4 pounds.........

            Hopefully the kitties are all well and will stay that
             way through the holidays.  It is so hard having them
            both sick at the same time.

            My Aunt E is doing ok.  She knows more now than
             she did when she first had the strokes.  She is
             a little upset over her living arraingements.  Aunt
             E wants to go live with my parents.  But that really
            isn't practical at this point.  Last year mom asked 
            her to move in with them but she wouldn't do it.

            Other news.......my brother and his youngest is 
            coming down Christmas day.  That is big news with
            mom because they rarely visit.  Long story.....

            Yesterday it was freezing here, today isn't too bad
            should get up into the 60's tomorrow.  One weather
            guy says if you want a white christmas head for the
            beach.  Yep, says that the coast might have snow.
            How weird is that?  I live closer to the mountains,
            but the coast may get snow for christmas.

            I am still bummed out about my pastor leaving (and
            Dec 26th is his last day) and the reasons why he
            is leaving.  I am trying so hard to believe that God
            will bring someone as good or better to us.  Maybe
            a single one.  Yea, one around my age.....LOL

             Ever wonder what I wonder about this time of
             year?  Oh, you know you do. 
             Well then ----->
