Family

Free For ALL

When the grand children come over, or sleep over, it can sometimes become a FREE FOR ALL.

They start off pretty quiet.

Come on don’t they seem so sweet.  Just lying down in each others arms.

How wonderful are these two sibling…

Then the moment happens.

 Christian, or should I say Batman, does not really want things quiet.  I could sense that he was about to get things a  rolling.

Now Sophie is not an innocent bystander.

 Don’t let her angelic appearance fool you. She is another whipper snapper.  If you really want to know the truth she is the instigator…but don’t tell her I said that.

10092013 112Within a split second, or split Christian, the two darlings become the two whipper snappers.

They quickly turn my living room couch into an instrument of fun.  The funny think is my children would not, could not, dare not ever use my couch for their pleasure.  But for some reason what seemed so important to me 30 years ago is now merely a thing that I happened to own, and why should these children not get a little pleasure.  So what if they turned my couch into a living room trampoline. So What!

Now here is a little clip of the trampoline couch and as long as they did not get hurt I loved being the bystander enjoying their show.  That is what Grandma’s are for.

Worth Every Penny – Road To Recovery

Miss Penny fell out of bed the other morning and could not walk straight. She was banging into things and I knew something was wrong. She is usually as quiet  as a cat burglar.  She could not stand or walk and I was besides myself in panic.   I went right to the vet and he took blood tests and x-rays at once.  No temperature, and her weight was perfect. The x-rays were good, no tumors in kidneys, liver or stomach. Thank God.  The blood test showed a bad infection in the pancreas.  He kept Miss Penny all day on intravenous for liquids and antibiotics.  I picked her up around 5 pm. She could stand but was walking in circles.  She came home with me and we had another appointment in the morning 9:15. She did not make a sound all night.

I moved the coffee table and laid a tablecloth, a blanket and pillow for her.  I slept on the couch.  During the night, I saw her standing and drinking water. Thank You, Lord.   In the morning, she walked, still wobbling to the hallway by the stairs and waited for me. I picked her up and took her outside and she did her business. She then walked up the 4 stairs on the stoop and I carried her back upstairs into the house.  We got to the Vet at 9am and everyone there was happy to see how much better she was looking and doing.  She stayed the day hooked back up to intravenous  for liquids and antibiotics.  My sister drove me again to pick her up  at 5 PM.

Miss Penny has a new diet to follow (no more table food) and she has to take her medicine  for a couple of days.  The vet also put her on liquid vitamins, she is anemic too. Miss Penny will be 11 on March 24, 2014 🙂

When I got to the Vet to pick her up I heard a dog barking and the technician told me “That’s Penny”.  Music to my ears.  She licked my face all the way home.  She can stand but is still  very wobbly and tires very easily but I am believing  for Penny to get better day by day.  She jumped on the sofa all by herself 🙂   I emptied the capsules in a little water and feed her the antibiotic through the oral syringe. She ate the new food. Thank you for all the kind and gentle wishes.

To me, she is worth every Penny.
