Virus/Germs/Bacteria/YUCK!

Well it is day 5 and this 'bug' is showing no signs of retreat so my post will be another short & sweet one today.
Susan isn't feeling well today either so we cancelled our dyeing day and no Gavin since I don't want him to catch this crud.

Yesterday was another Vet trip but this time it was Calvin, he was showing all the typical signs of a bladder infection again so I ran him in for tests. Oddly there was no bacteria so we are trying anti-inflammatory drugs this time along with some Amoxicillin just for good measure in case we were sooo early in catching it.

Have you ever tried to give medicine to a cat?

Thankfully his thyroid pill can be broken into tiny pieces & hidden in cheese and so can this anti-inflammatory pill but the Amoxicillian well that is a horse of a different color.

Sorry I couldn't decide which one I liked best!

Take your vitamins, get plenty of rest, wash your hands & keep away from sick folks!

Blessings 2 U Friends...stay healthy

The Holidays are over now what?

Things were going along really well until yesterday afternoon when I started feeling a bit 'tired'. I should have known something was up when I drove to Zephyrhills for class and we don't have class until next week, but I enjoyed the beautiful drive.
Later I thought it was just because Gavin was being so 'cranky' and wanting to be held. Sahara & I took him off to Walmart to get a walker & stroller in hopes I could put him down without his crying. Nope that lasted all of 3 minutes about the amount of time it took me to put those things together.

So today it is full blown headache/earache/sore throat/ stiff neck & shoulders and a cough...JOY!

We still have the tree, the mantle & the credenza decorated and since they didn't go up until the week before Christmas they will stay up until I feel better. I am hooking in my spare time on my big rug...a Polly Minick Gameboard Design that was put aside this year so I could make some other small items to sell. Now that the Florida Scrub Hooking in Sebring is only a few weeks away I feel the urge to finish it. I want to start the Belsnickle I copied onto sewer cloth last January so I can finish it by Christmas this year.

Here are a few photos of the girls projects in class December 27th
