We'll get her to the vet some time in the next two weeks to see if something more sinister has been going on. Because of her missing paw, her skeletal system is misaligned in about ten directions. Sophie is not at all disturbed by her afflictions - she runs very fast, a true miracle of God. But, as it will for us all, eventually her time will come .....

Thank you for your kind words. They meant a lot to me.
Thats good to hear Weston.

Daft punk eh? Remember this from my Uni days, a great band, not generally into that style of music but a these I can listen too, some great songs, harder better faster was a catchy number like so many of theirs.

I'm saddened to learn of your distress, Rydr. Winter has a way sometimes of magnifying our burdens, throw in a global plague, political turmoil, and severe unemployment and it's understandable people feel afflicted and useless.

But you're not, sir. These seasons and feelings come and go. The trick is to get through the tunnel. It helps at times to find something kind and unexpected to do for those close to you. It can make you feel a little better and, hey, maybe give them an little lift, too. Be well, stay safe.....

The missus threw out her back last night so I'm gonna be a little more domestic than usual for a while. Actually, it's kinda fun except, of course, for her situation. :(

Thanks, Fox, she's used to it but familiarity has no redeeming features and it keeps her pretty much bedridden until it passes. :(

No I did a quick search online and I found out what the brand is but its only the one place so far that sells it in a "bigger than a regular bottle" container. Its Turkey Hill.

Joy: We are throwing my other pregnant cousin a baby shower a few weeks before she is due!

Joy: LOVING my new 1080p TV (used to have a 720p)! I can actually see the small fonts in certain games now (I'm looking at you Wasteland 2) and, speaking of gaming, EVERYTHING looks nice!

Sorrow: Still got writer's block >.< There's ideas in my head and I KNOW how I want them to go...they just won't transfer to my fingers like they should be xD
