Happy birthday your royal Gobness (Carol) !! Here's to a happy day and no cooking, dishwashing, etc. Isn't it wonderful to be a full fledged GOB? (((Carol)))

Oh gosh, Oskar. He's breathing better today since they took lots of the air out of the area that was pressing on his lungs and heart, but he's not eating much. I tempted him with salmon, but he just lapped up the liquid and left the solid bits. Mini very cheerfully finished it off. She and Souky are being very attentive to him, sitting or lying near him, knowing he is not well. There is no good end to this, the condition is rare, and even with surgery to dig around and find the tumor which is probably the cause, it is likely cancerous, and he will suffer for naught. He will eventually not be able to breath, because the air will build up again. Every time I look at him, my throat closes up and the water works spout again. All we can do is keep him comfortable and warm, and it's just breaking my heart.

I'm a picky speller too, but here and in email, sometimes it just slips past you, and everybody understands what you meant to say. If someone consistently nitpicks about it, they evidently have too much time on their hands and they ought to go out and do something useful to mankind instead of trying to be superior and insulting. So there. Who is it? I feel like slapping someone upside the head, so I'll volunteer. I've posted links that required the person to take an additional step, but never had anyone complain about it. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.

Julie, since you are on such a cleaning binge, would you like to drop in and attack my basement? I desperately need to get down there and resort and repack and probably discard numerous things. Just never get quite enough ambition to do it.

Hello to every one else, I'm just not in a mood to respond individually to everyone, but I have read all the posts and hope you all have a good weekend. Gonna go see if my best boy wants more salmon juice. He's on the left in this pic from yesterday, Souky is keeping him company in the sunny spot.
