The Compulsive Ramblings Of A Philotherian: cj

A sad farewell...

Today has been one hell of an emotional day. Not only did CJ go to his new home today, but so did our ferret, Robbie. CJ's departure was sad enough, but we knew from the time he was two weeks old that he wasn't staying. It was Robbie's departure that really hit home.

LaVaughn and I talked about this literally for weeks! We kept making pros and cons lists, but we would always end up with the same conclusion, "He's fine here, just as he has been for a year." Then a day or two would go by and the same subject would come up. We discussed the fact that he doesn't get enough out of cage playtime and the fact that he is lonely - both of which are true. We knew that we couldn't have another ferret - we tried that before and it was too much. We got him out as much as possible, but knew that it wasn't enough. Then, like I said, after weeks of discussion, we decided to find a new home for him.

I know a lot of people will frown upon this decision, but it was the best decision for everyone involved. He's at a place now where he will get practically 24/7 free roam of the house and be the only pet! I was assured that he would be spoiled beyond recognition. I've been talking to the lady that got him for days. We've emailed, called each other and she's great! I think it's the best place for him to be.

In other, happier news... while we were in Fredericktown today grocery shopping, we decided to pick up some more Tide Pods. We picked up a 14 pack online the other day and they're awesome! I figured our laundry would be the perfect test. We have really thick towels - plus a house full of animals. And believe it or not, they actually work! They smell great and really get the clothes clean. I'm definitely a Tide fan.

Well, I guess that's all for now. Until next time...

Love & Peace

Kittens really make my day...

I forgot to share the pictures of the kittens from the other night. I was still pooped from the hospital trip yesterday, I completely forgot to add them. Not going to drag this out, so without further adieu...

Love & Peace

Mya looks just like her aunt Susie.

It looks like Bart is sucking his thumb.

Superhero kitty!

And now for the video:

Guess who's 3 weeks old today!

If you guessed the kittens, then you're right! Our gorgeous little furballs are getting so big and so cute. Not that they weren't cute to begin with, but they're starting to look less like aliens and more like kittens. They're also starting to get playful!

Aside from the kitten excitement, I also have loads of pictures to share. The lighting was so beautiful today, I just had to take some pictures. I need to get all the outdoor enjoyment while I can. The sweltering summer months aren't too far away.

Well, I suppose that's all for now. Hope you enjoy the pics...

Love & Peace

Farm fresh eggs are definitely one of the best things about having chickens. I love that we eat free range chicken eggs instead of what you buy in stores.
