Revisiting Christmas Means . . .

Christmas Means is one of my favorite posts of all time. Here you will see Marigold, who passed in January 2019, again, along with a new photo or two I have added. It’s good for a second look if you have seen it before, and if this is your first time here, welcome and enjoy! I can’t seem to improve on this post so I just keep putting it up.

U Haul I Hauled

U Haul I hauled. The whole story I am about to share can be found with photos at the link at the bottom of this post:

I have been on an emotional roller coaster, and sorry you had to ride along, but be sure today you are locked in because here we go again!!!

First thank you for all your kind comments on Nicholas. I appreciate them.

In November there was a story on the news about an animal hoarder. A woman with a U Haul truck was checked into a local motel. Guests complained about cats out in a parked U Haul truck. Police and animal control called. Twenty cats were locked in the truck cab wanting out. Checking the back police found cages with filthy, starving cats and corpses. The caged cats were desperate to get out of the cages and the dark,un-ventilated truck. 73 cats total which include 10 dead were found. The woman was arrested on several counts $35,000 bail set. .

Tuesday Dec 9 Nicholas died. Thursday Dec 11 was an adopt-a-thon at the shelter for the rescues. We hauled ourselves over there. You know how U Haul paints various states on the sides of their vehicles? There were so many animals to name they named them after the U.S. states and then cities. We adopted a little guy who needed a break. He weighed 3 pounds at rescue. He is named after a state. Next post will document his arrival at his new home. Was it the right thing to do? It is an emotional ride. Time will tell.

The full story is in the link below but it may not work in some countries.

Another Day in the Life (4)

Another Day in the Life (4). A long time since I used this title. Now it is just Opie and Nicholas around the house. Today we will see the normal routine–4 am antics, playing with things, searching for Nemo and the invisible cat who returns today. In the top left photo you can see the red curtains I had to cut Nicholas out of as he hung by his front paws.
