Reading Gizmodo, I came across an article on a love letter Walter May created for his girlfriend Lex in the form of a music video, “I hope this gets to you.” The video isn’t being sent to his girlfriend directly. Instead, he is hoping she’ll discover it...
Over the past week and a half, Stella’s weight was in a state of slow decline. She lost about 8 ounces, taking her weight from 4 pounds 3 ounces down to 13 pounds 10 ounces. I watched her losing weight and felt like there was nothing I...
Before you give thanks on Thanksgiving, you first shop for food and clean. The cleaning part is what always gets me. I’m not messy, but I tend to leave things incompletely unpacked for as long as possible. You get to where things you need are out but...

Stella is now the smallest she has ever been: 3 pounds, 13.5 ounces. This Friday we’re going to recheck her phosphorous levels and make sure her meds are at the right dose. Poor little kitten. She is in good spirits and she has been playful. She seems...
It’s colder weather and Stella is letting me know it. She does not tolerate anything colder than 65 well. She insists upon sleeping under the blankets. First, she sits next to my left ear and waits for me to life the blanket for her. If I don’t...

It’s been a little while since I posted about Stella and Kiesha. Stella has been on meds to control high phosphourous levels in her blood. It’s made a huge difference: Stella is eating! After months and years of trying to get her to eat while her wait...
This coming weekend, Kasane will have her second show. Nope, not dressage or hunter or equitation. We’re going to do games: barrel racing, pole bending, and whatever else Horsemasters thinks up. The pictures from this should be like an outtake reel. I set up obstacles at the...
The first weekend in October, Kasane had her first show. She did very well, considering a lot of things. It was her fourth time ever being ridden in a bit, there were Crazy! Things! at the dressage ring (plastic rails, retaining wall, geese, pond!), and she still...

Graph from an article of 35 Extremely funny graphs and charts. Couldn’t stop snickering. My aunt lives in Seattle and another friend is in California. This matches them perfectly. See more images here.. Related Images:
