Hello Dianne, I'm sorry to hear about Lizzy's hypothyroidism :-(. I hope giving the medication won't be too stressful for both you and Lizzy - or too expensive! We went through that with Millie, my cat. She had the opposite extreme, hyperthyroidism, but the result was the same - medication for the rest of her life. Luckily we found a way to give her pills in special putty that she happily took, otherwise it would have been impossible! So I do hope that aspect will be OK for you and Lizzy, and that she'll be able to live a normal life for a long time yet.
It's very mild here at the moment, and the leaves are beautiful colours, and dropping everywhere. We're getting lots of young hedgehogs in, who are too small to survive hibernation. We're fattening them up! xx

Hi, Dianne!  Have a nice day.  We can't get the Ohio State game out here today.  Whaaaaa!  Hope you have a nice Fall day there in Ohio!  We'll have 85 degrees today but it seems to be much cooler than that.  Right now it's only 61 degrees.  Hugs and kisses for Lizzy!  Randy's been playing catch with his toy mouse!  Have only had to sew it once so far.  LOL  xx

Hi Dianne, how are you? We've just come back from a week's holiday in Pembrokeshire in south Wales. We stayed in a gorgeous little cottage with a log burner and a hot tub! It was so cosy in the evenings, and we spent our days walking the beautiful Welsh coast path. The scenery is lovely there, and it was a refreshing break for our souls!
I hope you're having a good week. xx

I'll say a prayer for Lizzy and hope all goes well tomorrow.  Not sure how Randy would be at a groomer.  I brush him but trimming his nails with that "grinder" is a trip.  Don holds him and it's usually the front paws and the dew claw.  Yes, they left it on.  Another claw to fuss with.  Thinking of you and hope all goes well.  xxx

Hi Dianne, I'm glad you enjoyed having the guinea pigs again, and the girls enjoyed their trip to Canada. Lucky them - I've never been, but would love to go. It's looking very autumnal here now. The trees are going a beautiful golden colour and the temps are dropping, but like yours, my roses are still putting out new buds, bless them! Mark's had a bit of a tidy up. He's replaced most of our plastic pots with nice terracotta ones, and the garden is still looking really colourful. Have a lovely weekend!! xx

Hi, Dianne!  Didn't get to see the dermatologist yesterday.  Worried for days beforehand.  Walked in and the gal said, oh, yes, you checked in online.  Sat down and she called me over to let me know my "provider" wasn't there yesterday.  Claimed she tried to call me, but I don't have anything on my phone.  So, I go again on the 30th.  Hopefully he will be there.  I was very pale growing up.  My brother and sisters could get a tan easily.  Not me.  I always had the sunburn and Rudolph nose.  That's why I've had freezings on my nose multiple times, my bottom lip a few times, surgery on my right arm and a squamous cell cancer on my right leg last year.     Have used that horrible cancer cream on my arms and from the knees down to ankles.  I would never do it again.  It's just miserable.  Fluorouracil!  You mentioned the cactus plants.  I did some trimming on them the past few days.  So difficult.  I started them from one pad, and they are way over the block wall in height.  The prickly pears I can control by cutting or twisting the pads off.  They usually like to be ignored, so easy to grow.  We had some snow up on the mountains today.  Will post some pictures if I get the chance.  Ye

Hi Dianne good to hear from you! We haven't talked in a while! Everything is going good with me! How about you? My Cosmos are blooming like crazy, I need to send you a picture of them! We still have lots of Vegs. growing too!  Our weather is beautiful today nice & cool sitting here in the shade! No rain is coming our way I guess I'll be watering my plants! Nothing else is happening here so I guess I'll say goodbye have a good night sending my L&H's for you!xoxoxo
