Saying Goodbye to June

Published on: November 8, 2008December 30, 2015 by catballou24 2 Comments

We got June last year with the hopes of a wonderful pet and wonderful goat milk. Alas, she has never bonded with us. Having come from a herd, she has always stayed wild. She has never allowed us to touch her without a fight. She’s never forgiven us for trading one of her boys in […]

History Being Made

“This is our chance to answer that call. This is our moment. This is our time –- to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids; to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace; to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth –- that out of […]

Roving Fun and Sister Love

My sister just left today. It is so hard to see her go. Her family is extremely close to us, so we always have fun when they are here. They flew out for less than a week, but we had such a great time! My nephew, H, is exactly a month younger than Xi. We […]

I love the changing light that occurs with the change of seasons. Very focussed doing schoolwork. Two princesses and a snake. Happy Halloween!!!

Crockpot Season Has Begun

(Image courtesy of amazon.com) It was 38 degrees on my back porch this morning. Crisp, cold air met me as I went out to feed the animals and get the day started. My favorite part of the year has finally begun! And with the cooler weather, it also means it’s crockpot season in the AmLo […]

A Princess And A Kitty

We went to a Halloween festival on Friday night and they had face painting going on along with an egg hunt in a fake cemetary (didn’t quite understand this tradition, but the kids sure loved it!), crafts, music, balloon animals, and a man on stilts. It was all free and the kids had a blast. […]

Kubra Update And A New Porch

Published on: October 27, 2008December 30, 2015 by catballou24 Comment

She’s doing so much better. Her site is coming back just fine and she’s happy and relaxed. We are keeping her in the front yard for now until she’s 100% again and she is still sleeping in the kitchen at night. She has a hard time with night vision still, so in case a dog […]

Kubra Is Coming Home

Published on: October 20, 2008 by catballou24 Comment

We get to bring her home today. She’s finally eating and drinking on her own so doesn’t need an IV anymore. She’ll still have to have thiamin injections 2-3 times a day for the next few days, but otherwise she’s on the mend. She’ll be living in the front yard for awhile until she gains […]
