Happy Saturday....


I am happy to report that Onyx is doing great!  Our neighbor had to call us, to let us know he greeted her when she came in to check on him for us, while we were away yesterday.  He is still sleeping a good bit, and seeking my lap at every chance (which is fine!), but we can tell he feels more like himself.  His eyes are clear, he is eating and using the litter box.  Thank goodness!

Our trip down to South Florida yesterday went well.  We were on the road by 6:30 a.m.  Last year, it rained on the trip down.  This year, the weather was wonderful.  Joe got his work done, while I napped and finished one book and started another.  I opened the sun roof in the car, put my seat back and this was my view....


We had lunch together and were on our way home by 6:15.  Neither of us was hungry, so we didn't stop for eats on the road.  Saved us some time, since we got a later start back than anticipated.  We got home just after 9:30.  It was a long day, but the client really likes Joe, they have a (many years) history, and we came home with a nice check - makes the trip totally worth while.  :)

I have spent today, so far, holding Onyx.  Makes catching up on yesterday's blogs hard to do, so maybe later tonight.  We are heading for Mass shortly, then out to eat and a trip to the grocery.  Perhaps later this evening my lap will be cat-free and I can catch up with everyone!

We are staying in for the Super Bowl tomorrow.  Joe has requested Philly Cheese Steak sandwiches for dinner, so that will be easy to do for him.  We will be cheering for the Baltimore Ravens.  We bought into a little football pool, which will benefit our niece's sister, who is fighting breast cancer.  We already told them if our squares win, Julie can have our winnings.  She doesn't have insurance and needs some help with her medical bills.  Having a little wager will make watching the game even more fun.  Of course, I watch more for the commercials, but will be excited if the Ravens can pull out a win!

Hope you have had a good Saturday so far!  Peace, love & hugs.

  1. Hope your wager wins as it sounds like Julie could use the money- prayers are free. Sounds like Onyx really missed you. If you lived in a cold climate,he'd make a great lap warmer. I'm charging up my kindle at the moment, so I can continue reading the Carolyn McCray novel I've just started. Enjoy the rest of your Saturday.

  2. I missed you yesterday, but glad it was a good day. Onyx sounds like my Cali, if I sit down anywhere, any time, she is in my lap before I can even settle. But that is why I have her....to cuddle and love on! I dont really care about the Super Bowl, other than the commercials too. Love the horses especially. Enjoy your evening and catch up when you can. (love your new background)

  3. What a beautiful sky and those trees... made me feel for a brief moment that I was in FL. I wish.
    I'm glad all went well yesterday. And that Onyx is feeling better.
    I hope your little wager on the Ravens is fruitful. I'm not a fan but I may peek in off and on. I'm sure my hubby will be watching it.
    You have a good day.

  4. Happy to hear that Onyx seems to be on the mend and getting back to his normal self. Sounds like your trip was nice. You sure had a nice view with your seat laid back in the car. Not sure if I will watch the Super Bowl or not, I do like the commercials though. Hugs
