"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, absolutely, Fred. We all have stuff happening, and what's going on in any one life is not more important than any other, so please feel free to share at any time.

All the fried salty food has made me very sleepy.

Thrive to spite them

I remember the Fernet tasting. Everyone's reactions to it.

I wasnt the best at the F2F but I had such a good time.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Nanita, that is so kind. I've been worried about what will happen to Mr. Peabody.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I'm so grateful for all of you. I just wanted to make that extra-clear.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I've mentioned in passing, I think, that Hubs's sister moved back to the DC area to be near family. (Because of health issues, she can't live across the country from family any more. Another brother is sharing an apartment with her.) Lately, she's been dealing with a fluid build-up problem in her body. The doctors can't figure out the reason, and she's been in the hospital once already to have the fluid drained.

Yesterday, Hubs and I brought in lunch for her. Sister's fluid build-up had become very bad, and she ended up going to the hospital again. Brother had been up all night with her, and he'd had no sleep. Brother was at the hospital long enough to give the necessary information, and he went home to sleep. So we spent most of yesterday afternoon with sister until she got settled in.

She had already been scheduled for draining (pericentesis, I think it's called) today. We expect her to be home tomorrow at the latest.

Our wings are not tired.

Well I am only part of the equation. I have money but can't take him in. So we still need to find a good home. I edited the post to make it public and shareable. I was worried about it being shared all over with no way to track comments happening elsewhere. But I believe Ginger would say "if someone can't read the instructions for emailing you they're not smart enough to care for Mr. Peabody anyway!!"

:-)

Ann, that's a ferret.

Oh, and if it comes to it as far as Mr. Peabody goes, I have connections at the UGA veterinary hospital. They may be able to find a home for him.

Hubs also used to have FB connections to a sort-of Underground Railroad that transports pets long distance. We helped get a beagle named Albert from Georgia to Vermont. (We took the Lexington, VA, to Strasburg, VA leg.) But he stopped using FB some time ago when he realized that it was taking over his life, so I don't know how good those connections are any more.
