First Story book time





 




 




  Greetings
on this beautiful Thursday !  What a day.  Today was Katie's first day
going to story time at the library.




So much fun watching 11, 3 and 4 year olds.   Every day I always go to
my inner child to be at Katie's level, so I get right into her thinking and it
really is fun.  She did very well.  There is a little 4 foot door into
the room and the kids really love that, she had to come out twice to get a
grandma kiss, but I think she just wanted to make sure Grandma and Grandpa were
there waiting for her, yes Katie we were waiting !!!  Children, they are so
beautiful and unspoiled by the world, I never waste a minute with her, it s
going by so fast ,we are so blessed !




These are yesterdays paintings, I just couldn't get a good picture of them. The
bumps that show up on the frames, well I guess they are ghost bumps because I
can not see them on the frames ! Weird.




Well the week is almost over. Mr. Bear goes to get his blood sugar tested
tomorrow, were keeping are fingers crossed. We will see..




Until then,




Meows and purrs,




Katie

Feline Diabetes


Today
was Mr. Bears appointment at the veterinarian, he has had diabetes for 4 years
now. We are very lucky to have a doctor such as our Dr. Kroll .


Mr. B, 15 years old,  has been on the insulin drug Lantus for about 2
years now, Mama gives him 2 3unit shots of insulin every day 12 hours apart, and
this medication works so very well for him. Today his blood sugar was at about
57, actually a little low so we are cutting him back to 2units, which is a good
thing. We will go back in 2 weeks for another glucose test .   He is
such a good boy. He weighed in at 15 1/2 pounds , so his weight is staying about
the same and that's a good thing too !   All my cats are on the same
food , Hills Prescription Diet m/d,  very high in protein and low in carbs,
also pretty expensive, about $ 32.00 a case, but worth it for my kids

Tonight's painting is all about LOVE !


Nothing to much more snuggly than a good cat.
