I haven't posted in a while - just too much going on.
Poor little Annie, the new dog, had a bout of hemorrhagic gastroenteritis, which is a fancy word for "we really don't know why she is pooping blood." I took her to my wonderful vet and she is all better. I really thought she might die. Another thing, on the dog subject is that Dick and I won a painting of our pet at a silent auction. The result was unbelievable. Somehow this artist captured the spirit of Mattie and Sadie. I will have them forever! This is a picture of the painting.
I leave tomorrow for New York. This time I'm going with The University of Richmond group. Neta and I just went in October, but I'm ready to go again. We are going to see 'Young Frankenstein,' which is one of my favorite movies.
The Charleston City Paper had the 'Best of Charleston' gala last night. I won the readers' picks for Best Actress and Mammologues won for Best Show. Holy Cow! Dick and I represented the Old Fart faction. It was so fun with people in Zombie costumes (that was the theme), a rock band, lots and lots of young people - the girls with really beautiful shoes! and two girls from Diamonds who had on only shorts - nothing on top except tastefully painted decorations. It was a hoot. What an eclectic group of people. You could pick any four and know that none of them would ever be at the same place except for this night.
Gail, Dick's niece, was diagnosed with breast cancer several weeks ago. This has taken the wind out of my sails. It was discovered first in the lymph nodes. She has had a life port placed and will start chemo on Thursday. But today, there was good news. Her PET scan was clear except for the known cancer sites, so there is no distant mets. YAHOOO - SOMEBODY FIND ME AN OYSTER SHOOTER TO CELEBRATE.
And off to the northland........... |
