More Amazing Animals ... Heading off to the Hookers Retreat

If your a faithful reader you will remember early last year that I found an adorable kitten in the engine of the Suburban.
We had occasional sightings of it in the yard throughout the year.
Friday morning Emma found her again, she wasn't too frightened. Little Miss Kitty stood her ground in front of the camper as I called Emma back into the house, not even hissing.
When I returned bearing a plate of food she was gone so I headed towards the playhouse, where I had seen her before. Surprise there were two tiny orange kittens peaking out from under the playhouse.
I left them the mornings entree, to find them all happily munching their breakfast when I went inside.
We also left instructions for Jessica to pick up a bag of kitten food (C/D is a bit expensive to feed strays) for them & she should leave them a plate of food while she was here giving Calvin his medications.

Off to Sebring...
Last year the Hook-In was good. This year it was GREEEEAAAAT (in my best Tony the Tiger voice)!

After my family deposited me on the road in front of the Hotel I located our classroom.
This year we had our own classroom conveniently located in the restaurant alongside the bar where Polly had started putting out wool & kits for our choosing.

Happy 4th of July Weekend

Things have been consuming these last few days, but thankfully I can once again focus on what is truly important...FAMILY, REAL FRIENDS and my wonderful customers!

I want to thank those who supported me with your prayers, kind words, emails and purchases not only these last few days but this entire year. Without them I can't even think where I would be emotionally right now.

Now onto some Praise!

On a lighter note while I haven't seen my Personal Trainer due to my slip & fall and the upcoming holiday I have been loosing some of the 20 lbs I gained back this year. Since last Tuesday when I started I have lost 5lbs already this with only one work out & some short walks to the lady with the bag's house (see previous post) to take care of her dogs :-) the last few days.

Today Calvin & Casper went back in for their Vet re-checks....Calvin gained 2.5 lbs since he starting taking his meds to slow his Thyroid down, he still had to have blood drawn to test his T/4 levels.
Casper still has stones in his kidney & we are now trying a vitamin supplement and we tested his Thyroid since the levels were so LOW while he was hospitalized.

The camper is back & they say the 'leak' is fixed however a block from home Larry got a flat in the rain so before we leave for Lake Louisa tomorrow we will have to have the tire fixed so we have a spare.

So may you have a wonderful 4th of July & take a moment to relish the fact that we live in a country that is still FREE!
