It's been one of those days. You know - a duckling day. Where you look all calm on the surface like you are in control but your little legs are paddling like crazy underwater trying to keep you afloat. People see the calm and have no idea of the frantic paddling beneath the surface.
We all have 'em and they are sent to try us. Other people swimming alongside you helps enormously too. The only thing to do is keep paddling, safe in the knowledge that soon the current will slow down and you can return to floating and gliding!
The good news is - and I know it is early days - but Kira's coat looks a teeny tiny bit better. Not quite so brittle and sticking up. We have had her (and Boushka as I have to feed the two girls together) on just white fish and sensitive skin Hills Science diet for the last 24 hours. It seems, thought early days, to be having an effect. My house stinks of fish though and we don't ever ever eat fish so it's horrid. But heck - I would do whatever it takes. Mind you, if I have another night like last night I may not be so sympathetic. Nigel had half the bed and Kira and I were meant to be sharing my half. Half is obviously a concept she has not quite understood! I'm a 'big girl' and I had such a teeny part of the bed I could only sleep on my side, dead straight with one leg on top of the other. I had NO ROOM! I hope she is a little more understanding tonight as she is playingt he sympathy card rather too well at the moment.
This page was the one prepared recently for the A True Friend blog. The challenge was to scrap a day in the life of your pet. Well, there was a lot to cram on for the monster and I had to leave quite a bit of his daily routine out! (Plus some was highly unsuitable for a page that was to be displayed on a public blog LOL)
I confess I am just loving the bright lime greens and turquoises at the moment. And that from somebody who tends to scrap in neutrals most of the time.
The papers were Creative Imaginations, Heidi Grace, Basic Grey and I used an Autumn Leaves stamp and CI chipboard. Great fun to make, except now I need to do one for each of the girls as well.
Oh well, off to cook yet more fish. It doesn't go very far between two of them!
So glad Kira's looking a little better -you could also try turkey legs - boil them up for 2-3 hours then let them cool and strip off the meat(less smelly than fish).Our fur babies love it.Makes the house smell like Christmas LOL

I too hate the smell of fish in my house but I am glad Kira is looking a little brighter, I hope her Mom feels brighter too and that the water calms soon so she can rest. Love & Hugs xxx
