Opening a gift from one of her friends. Her face! ❤️❤️❤️

I didn't get to come on Facebook...
I didn't get to come on Facebook and wish a Happy 18th Birthday to the most amazing girl I know (Kira, duh!) but it's because we had a really busy day. Kira wanted to take a pack of friends to Dave and Busters in Atlanta to celebrate so we rented a car large enough to hold us all and went out. It was a great time!
I drove a huge Dodge Durango packed full of people. That is probably the nicest thing I've ever driven in my life. My arthritis is flaring up, but the heated seat and steering wheel helped it to be a far less uncomfortable trip. Since it was a huge SUV the screen that comes on when you back up helped tremendously. It was amazing.
But anyway. Shaun is the one who planned all of this and also the one who navigated us there because the car's GPS lied to me. 😂 We both picked out and wrapped her gifts and also picked out and decorated her cake together. Check out those candle flames. It's not just the lighting - they burn in colors! Science is awesome!
Y'all stay tuned because I have some pretty great video to upload. 😉

No one else has spontaneously died so that's nice.
My Gramson Leon was neutered this morning and is doing fine. We get to bring him home tomorrow.
Midna seems to feel better than when we dropped her off at the vet, but she is rail thin. I can feel all of her bones. 🙁 Thankfully, she is eating and her poop does look better than when we dropped her off. I'm still worried about her, but I'm thankful for the progress and she is not scaring me every minute like Bun was. Hopefully my old lady will be ok.

Midna is home.
Midna is home. She still has diarrhea and is on meds, but the vet said that she's improved from what she was last week.
It is far too early for this kind of heartbreak.
It is far too early for this kind of heartbreak. I got up and wasn't greeted by a Snaga meow. She was one of my most vocal cats and I've been sensing her absence with my ears. She was always the first to run up to you with a meow - requesting her lovings. Ignore that and you'd get the polite but firm claw-pat that let you know it was really more of a demand and that you'd better go ahead and comply. 😂😂😂
Not that we'd ever want our animals to experience pain or suffering, but when they are sick there is usually at least a little time to prepare. With Snaga, she'd never looked healthier. She caught colds easily and often had skin allergies, but she had none of that going on. We're still in shock, but it's hitting me after not hearing her voice in almost 24 hours. 😭😭😭
I've gotta get up the nerve to check on Midna shortly. It was hard going all weekend without hearing anything, but most vets say that no news = good news. I hate to say that I'm avoiding it, though, just in case. I don't know how much more my heart can take.
