Must retire for the evening -

The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer,
already mounts the parapet.

Stand The Watch Tonight!

Nite, Conor! (((hugs)))

I kinda thought he might! It would be hard to just pick one of those darlings!

I remember when my brats went through that stage. I thought they’d NEVER grow out of it! But they did. :)

Thanks, Mac...he's waiting for my Mom. She talks to him and has "seen" him extending his hand.

Dear Lord, please bring my Mom Home to You and my Dad. Amen

GOD BLESS AMERICA!!

God Bless you good, Mac. *HUGS* Good night and rest well.
Thanks for helping honor our troops, past and present.
Thank you for your service to our country.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, and just morning, for you, Meg. Thank you for always remembering our brave heroes. ((HUGS))

Greetings to all at the Canteen!

To all our military men and women, past and present,

[radu]

Be glad you only have the one going through that stage. We have the four lil girlies PLUS Lessa’s 3 young ‘uns and a few others who are a couple of years older in that stage.
Maybe his being an “only child”, he’ll grow out of it soon. Our younger ones keep the older ones fired up long after they should have settled down. Whew!

Tigermauz can consider all the girlies as his. A lovely lil harem they make. LOL

[luvie]

Good idea! It’ll make it easier to get her up and down, plus the rails are more restrictive so she doesn’t hurt herself if she does try to get up.

Bless her......

[luvie]

Howdy, radu!

How did your cay go? Was the weather nice or unbearable? Ours was doable...thank goodness!

[radu]

WOOHOO! #50 again!
Yer rackin’ ‘em up lately. LOL

[radu]

Howdy, LUV.

It was a typical Wed. .... cat food shopping day. LOL!
HOT and MUGGY with rain and a little thunder just south of us but no rain here. Tomorrow and Fri. have higher rain chances but anywhere that doesn’t get rain will be sweltering. It’s July!

Glad your weather’s become “doable”. Y’all were sweltering for a while.

[radu]

Did you find out if Medicare will help with a hospital bed? I hope so. It would be nice to have one and not break the bank doing it.
