Lea...

Lea...  Just got back from another vet visit, and this time all the results are hopeful sounding.  X-rays of her lungs show no visible tumors.  Dr. C. did a fine needle aspiration of one of her lymph nodes, and there's not visible sign of malignancy there (though the slides are now out for cytology).  Next step: appointment with an oncologist on Wednesday morning.

Lea continues to look and behave like a completely well, but slightly ancient dog.  We took off her “cone of shame” this morning, and she's very happy about that...

Earthquakes: not just a California thing...  The redder the area on the map at right, the higher the risk of hazardous earthquakes

Cats: 1 Toilet Paper: 0...

Cats: 1  Toilet Paper: 0...  Imagine sharing your home with seven of these vicious monsters!  I'm living that dream...

Schumer: use the IRS to stomp on the Tea Party...

Schumer: use the IRS to stomp on the Tea Party...  Progressives really, really don't like the Tea Party – and I'm taking this as a measure of just how frightened those entitled progressives are at the very thought that someone, somewhere, might want a little more of that American dream: freedom.

What a knucklehead!
