Thank you everyone for all your encouraging comments this week. Audrey seems to be feeling better but this will take some time. She is on far more medication than she thinks she needs but it's all doing it's job. Of course there are side-effects and we are dealing with that. I want my girl back to her old self. I miss her.
I can't tell you what a scare that was because when your cat looks like it is having seizures your head goes to a very dark place. Very dark.
I will be awhile getting myself back to normal as we continue this struggle to get her health back.
I told her she has to get better so we can celebrate her 6th birthday soon.
Just having the 'episodes' stopped brings much relief. I never want to see her go through that again. Although in this photo she looks very sad she is tonight feeling much better and just enjoyed a grooming session. She even purred for me. :)
Well, here it is September.
It's that time of year to cut and bring inside the beautiful hydrangea blooms to enjoy all winter long. They can lift your spirits when the cold wind blows outside.
Did I mention I love cats?
I do have quite a collection of cats on dishes. It just sort of happened. :-}
Another basket of veggies headed out the door today.
I have to admit I am getting tired of my gardens and look forward to putting them to bed this fall. I'd like a few new fresh plants and garden decor to look at now.
The house-building is moving along. Right now it looks like a dance floor out there. Although our workers were delayed to start they sure are making up for lost time. They have a great work ethic and energy to burn. And they play The Eagles music while they work which I give two thumbs up.
Simon seems to be taking it all in stride. I found him laying across a pile of floor trusses yesterday, soaking up the sun. Silly chip. And then he joined the workers as they had their lunch in the Adirondack chairs around the old pump. They would throw tidbits and he would scamper around collecting them up. This chipmunk is shameless. He was very entertaining and gave them a few laughs.
Here's a few photos from this week.
It's a noisy place around here.
I checked out the full basement where I can have a small laundry room, play-room/sitting room for the grands and a cat area with a window leading to an out-door enclosure. Big plans...lots to do. :)
The fur-girls will love it.
Have a wonderful weekend. For Canadians it's a long one. We have a grand's birthday tomorrow (Gwynn) and the retired-guy is another year older on Sunday. Lots to celebrate. :)
Have fun and thank you again from me and Audrey.
hugs, Deb

"Anyone care to dance?"
The walls go up on Tuesday. This house will be an open-concept (kitchen, living -room, dining corner) with a master bedroom and bathroom at the front. A loft will be built over the kitchen/ living-room that will have a bedroom, bathroom and office nook. At some point, there will be an eight foot porch added on three sides of the house.I checked out the full basement where I can have a small laundry room, play-room/sitting room for the grands and a cat area with a window leading to an out-door enclosure.
