No surgery!<br /><br />Recommendation: see the spine-pain specialist.

He'd chase the cat around the sofa several times - soaking him - until the cat peeled off to under the bed. It was his GAME. He watched the tree with interest, but never bothered it. <br /><br />Now my mom left the lower quarter of our tree that was by the sofa undecorated --else the cat would un-decorate it herself. Nice memories of our little friends and their holiday antics. <br /><br />Best for tomorrow.

My life would be dull, indeed, without my three -- even little Mr. Pussy, the latest addition who recently came into my life as an orphan of the storm. Poor Mr. P turned out to be virtually blind, and has been no end of trouble since he arrived, but he still warms my heart, even as I try to deal with his random acts of destruction such as peeing on scatter rugs and turning the door jamb at the entrance to the laundry room into a mass of splintered wooden fragments.

He doesn't know he's doing wrong, he's handicapped and had a very bad start in life, so how could I not accept him just as he is, and love him? <br /><br />I hope you and your mister have a cheery Christmas, AOW.FreeThinkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682678301019952436noreply@blogger.com
