Forgive me, particularly Bridget who nearly lost her beloved father.  Don't
get me wrong, I love my father dearly.
However, mine has just informed me no way in HELL will he help me pay my
bills.  Said he's done far enough for me and that's the end of it and I

My poor Oreo. He's the 'baby' of the pride (just over two years old)

The other evening I was relaxing in bed with a good book, accompanied by
Bandit and Snowball curled up alongside, with Pericles snoozing on my
desk chair nearby (my office is in my bedroom thanks to lack of space

I live in the house that used to belong to my Grandma and that my dad

had a chance to build some muscle tone back in his leg.  But the x-ray

For Christmas, my parents were given a Mensa calender with a puzzle for each
day. They haven't opened it yet, but the sample question was:

post from her since well before Christmas.  I thought she might be on
vacation but figure if that was it, she would be back by now.  I hope
she didn't leave the group because of all that political BS that was
