Have I mentioned that I suck at blogging?

Here we are more than 2 years since my last post. LOL - blogging is NOT my forte'. Things are well...I've lost two furbabies this year. Kimiko T'Paw left us on March 3rd very early in the morning. Probably sometime between 1 and 2 AM. When I got up for work at 5:45 AM, she was already cold and stiff. We aren't sure what it was that killed her....she had a nasty abscess in October 2019 which we treated but other than that, she was fine. Her Vet wasn't even sure why she got the infection. It was located under the left side of her lower jaw. Wasn't a dental issue because she had no teeth. Anyway, last week of February, she started acting "off" - something only I would notice. She wasn't "right" - walking like a drunken sailor, not eating the same, no energy. Vet thought it might have been dry FIP, but the test they ran said no. But we couldn't get her turned around, and I couldn't afford the high level tests (CT scans and such) which might have definitively diagnosed the problem...and she faded quickly once Saturday hit. When I went to bed Monday night, I knew she would not be with me in the morning. She did not want to die at the Vet's office though. I felt that from her very strongly. She crashed Monday night after her final Vet visit, so I held her and snuggled her, and loved on her - and gave her permission to go. Needless to say, I was devastated. This little Persian was a joy and a blessing. I will miss her forever. Then on April 23rd, around 7:20 AM. My granny cat - Princess Guinevere of the Pretty Paws - passed away in front of me. I was cradling her head as she suffered what can only be described as some kind of stroke or seizure. She was almost 17 years old, and morbidly obese for most of her life. Yes, losing her was painful, but at the same time a bit of a relief because she had been having a lot of issues with mobility and I could tell that she was VERY uncomfortable. The 3 days or so prior to her passing I could absolutely tell that she was fading, and her mucous membranes (eyes, gums, etc) were not the right color. She was a very affectionate "people" cat. She was a delight, and I miss her too. Today - June 24, 2020 - is an interesting time. COVID-19....George Floyd....Breonna Taylor, etc....civil unrest....accusations of racism....Donald Trump....Joe Biden....Jo Jorgensen (who has MY vote)....it's ugly out there, folks. There's no love, no compassion, no tolerance, nasty talk, blasphemy, Godlessness, murder.... Come quickly, Lord Jesus.
