So it was a failure. My Dad thought it would be nice to take Por out of the nursing home to celebrate Thanksgiving. She complained of motion sickness in the car on the way to the restaurant. It didn't help that there was traffic. When she got to the restaurant, she was like a little kid pouting. She only ate shrimp chips just like a little kid! I think it's a little traumatic for her so it's probably better to just celebrate with her at the nursing home.

Wishing everyone an awesome Thanksgiving with lots of amazing food and good times with family and friends.
This year has been eye-opening for me. Feels like I've been under a black cloud since my mom passed. And just when I thought it was getting easier, I lost Helen last year. My two biggest supporters. I realized how their passing may have affected me, my decisions and how I was living my life. This may sound cliche but I cannot let my past shape my present and future. I have so much to be thankful for and am grateful for all that I have. I can't allow everyday BS to get in the way of being appreciative of the many good things in my life. Knowing where I came from and where I am today. Jeez, how lucky am I? I've never been that person who focused on what they didn't have. And I hope to God I never become that person. My mom wouldn't like that...... My little baby Choco is going to be ok. Dr said his eye is healing fine. Still has stitches but it'll dissolve in another week or so. He is still squinting but hopefully it'll get better. Otherwise, he's pretty much back to normal. Thank goodness. Here's Choco at the vet's office.  Brought Choco home and he has to wear this cone around his head for the next couple of weeks. Until his follow-up. I had to trim the cone a little bit because he cannot reach his food and water bowls. Plus he has 5 different meds - 4 for his eyes and 1 oral (opioid for cats). Do you know how hard it is to administer meds with the cone on??? And then you have Bailey who thinks Choco is some alien cat! She is completely terrified of him and is hiding. And when she sees him, she hisses at him! She even hisses at me! It's going to be a tough week. Not sure how I'm going to survive never mind my poor kitty who had the surgery!  |
