gooooOd morning, O-Fam!! I slept much better last night, whew! Yesterday was rough getting through. I was too tired to do much of anything, but I was also too tired to sit and do nothing. That was a strange feeling so I scrubbed out my kitchen sink and the washed the kitchen counters.
It was so cold at the lake. My feet were purple and I was wrapped in my beach towel. I made it for 2 hours and had to leave. But better that I got out of the house for a bit. Cait and I had a nice time at the walk and yoga. This will be her last week going with me since next week is the last week of activities and she will be on vacation. But we plan on taking W for walks together as much as possible.
Todays have to go food shopping and then we are taking the rats to the vet for a checkup before she goes away. Clover's tumors are enormous and she is losing weight. But that isn't slowing her down all that much. She still climbs up and down the ladders of the cage, climbs into the Space Pod (plastic hammock type thing), cleans herself. Muffin's tumor is quite large too. With Caitlyn being gone for 4 days next week, we thought it was a good idea to get them checked out, so if there are any major changes in them, the vet will know exactly what is different. Clover also is getting some scabs where the tumors are stretching her skin so we are going to see if there is an abx ointment to put on them so they don't get infected.
I know that Caitlyn is very worried about leaving them and I am worried that something is going to happen to them while she is gone. I don't want to have to be the one to make any decisions but this way we will all be on the same page.
Thankfully, Cait and I have been really open with talking about losing them and I already told her that I am scared I won't be able to help her through the grief. Better to talk about these things now than after it is too late to prepare.
In between those two things, I want to do some scrapping/prep work for August Challenges and activities here. I tried to work on a page yesterday but all I did what move things around on the paper and search my computer and the shop for elements/word art and found nothing that felt right.
Have a fab day!!!!
