Dexter.....update...

Well, still nothing from the vet.  They said the fur testing could take up to 3 weeks.  Hopefully we will know soon.  If nothing from the fur testing then back to have more blood drawn for other tests.  Apparently when they drew blood the first time they did not think to test for everything.  Time to see one of the other vets in the practice.  He does not seem to be bothered by it....it still eats and drinks, chases the dogs and oh yeah he does sleep a lot.  But isn't that what cats do, especially older ones.

I will keep you posted as we hear any news.  Have a great day and stay cool!

    I don't like it when one of our critters isn't feeling normal. You can't ask them what's wrong.
    Sure hope the new Vet comes up with something that is treatable.

    Our {indoor} cat had this problem once and the vet surmised tht he was licking himself because he was bored. We decided that we would let him go outdoors every day and amazingly it cleared up.

    Hope Dexter gets better soon.

A little change of scenery.....

This past weekend I was visiting with my old neighbor at her home in Michigan. September is very nice in the Grand Rapids area, warm days and cooler nights. It was refreshing to escape the humidity of SW Florida. There are sooooo many apple orchards in the area, and she chose one that she had not been too.  So here are just a few pictures.  No pumpkin patch or pumpkins.  Enjoy!

Learning something new....

-
They say as you get older you should continue to learn something new to keep your body and mind active.  Well, I certainly qualify for this. In December, I took sailing lessons, it was fun, frustrating and fantastic.  This has been fun on so many levels.  Just being on the water takes me to a very relaxing space.  Along with learning to sail comes taking pictures of the adventure, which isn't new, but taking videos is something new and then what do you do with all those videos. Well, you learn how to create something with them, which I did. I have created a YouTube channel to share this new adventure.  My friend and I are avid coffee drinkers and not decaf, which we incorporated in our channel name.   Our channel name is DeepSixDecaf . So after about 3 weeks of pictures and videos today I was able to post a video. Please stop over to the channel and take a look, here is a link for you.  Thanking you for taking the time to check it out!  Stay tuned for more adventures o

New addition update....

...adding to the existing 4 legged creatures could be closer than I realize.  No, it's not Mushi or Christmas Cookie or even Trevor.  They are two little dogs that were rescued from a back yard breeder.  Now I'm only taking one because my husband would blow a gasket if I came home with both of them.  Although it could be tempting.  Here is a picture their foster mom sent me.  Right now their names are Meatball and Taco but as I  will be changing his name.  I'm leaning towards Trevor or Tanner but that too could change. So on Friday Colby and I will be taking a road trip, 2 hours west of our Pennsylvania home, to meet these little fur kids and see, hopefully, which one he gets along with.  You never know he may not like either of them.  So remember if you thinking of adding a pet to your home and not sure if you want the puppy route, look into adopting.  There are so many pets out there that need furever homes and got to where they are due to no fault of their own. So
