Yes, thank you, Barbie is all better! Paulyn: I don't think he was smart enough to show off. I do think he didn't even notice us standing there. He had a one-track mind (little as it was). Mr. B: Good job! Yes, no extra Valium was needed, thanks! Agnes: I fear your kitten is a stuper. Hopefully, being young, she has a strong chance of growing out of it. With the help of your #2, I'm sure she will. A foxtail is like a very skinny thorn. Once imbedded, it's quite tricky to extract. Barbie excels in running around in our fields and so has become very adept at attracting foxtails. I'm thinking of going to vet school myself to defray the costs of extraction... And thank you, all is well, and never feel guily. We, who can think, do the best we can. Ferd:

Sarah: You saw right through me. Neither Rio nor I cared for the linoleum. You think with the prices they charge, they could have used tile! (Or at least leftover tile) Sergio:
Too true!

That's not good, is it? I was cajoled by #2 into calling the vet on Friday evening at 6pm as the kitten appeared to have diarrohea. I did as nagged and was told that on top of the usual vet fees, there would be an extra £60 ($120) to pay...just because it was Friday night and after 6pm. The kitten was fine the next day (I didn't succumb, I must admit) and we realised that he had simply gorged himself stupid on his grub. Vets are as bad as estate agents, they are so mercenary. #1 daughter wants to be a vet. And I am looking forward to my luxurious retirement property with a sea view - ha! A mail is in draft to you, my dear - although one of your comments did prompt my latest blog post. Thank you! Inspiration is far from near these days! Ooooh. That’s not good, is it?

Was it Rio who didn't like the beige linoleum or you? I can't believe how much vets charge these days. My dog was at the vets for about 15 minutes to treat an allergy. It cost me almost $500!!!! I guess they do think that pet owners are stupid and will pay any price. Tell me the truth. Was it Rio who didn’t like the beige linoleum or you? I can’t believe how much vets charge these days.
