Poor Minnie!

Minnie was not herself last weekend. She didn't want to eat or drink and hardly moved from her spot on the chair. Last Tuesday I came home from work and found her bleeding all over the place, but I couldn't tell where it was coming from, other than the general vicinity of her rear end. I was horrified and immediately started thinking of all of the worst case scenarios as I drove her to the vet. Poor Minnie had developed a LARGE abscess that had ruptured! Scary and painful, but nothing that couldn't be patched up. She was in a great deal of pain so the vet gave her a heavy dose of kitty narcotics some antibiotics and scheduled her for surgery to fix the abscess the next day. She had her surgery and came home with some stitches and 3 days worth of kitty pain meds. By the next day, I could tell that she was feeling much better because she started asking for food and attention again. It's been 5 days now and she seems to be on the mend and pretty much back to normal. Thank goodness!

My Patio Garden

Today I spent the day elbow deep in potting mix! I planted all of my annuals and herbs as well as a couple of container tomato plants. It was hot, dirty, hard work and boy was I exhausted when I was finished. The good part is that our place looks a lot more lively and I’ll get to enjoy the flowers, basil, peppers, and tomatoes all summer long! Hopefully the squirrels won't mow everything down!

Still Waiting

We're still waiting...the traffic through out condo has been incredible. We've had open houses the last four Sunday's with really good turnout. We even had someone come back for a "3rd look" yesterday, but...still....no......offers...yet! Ugh! Is this place ever going to sell????
