Mom Gone Visiting

Mom signing Daisy's guestbook



Mom giving Aunt Marion some hymn CDs that she had brought down for her.


Mom and Daisy getting reacquainted.


Mom and Shirley.
Shirley had cried when she heard the hymns playing on the CD player even as she sang softly along with them.

Yesterday it seemed like a good idea for Mom and I to go and visit Aunt Marion, Mom's one remaining sister.
Although my mother wasn't feeling well at all with her sore bones, she bravely told me to pick her up.
In the end she is glad that she went!

You see about four weeks ago my Aunt Marion had been gravely ill and was laying at death's door.
Her family thought they were going to lose her.

Two weeks ago when we visited her in the nursing home, she was still not out of the woods,but much to our surprise this Tuesday she was almost like a ball on fire.
She took us to different people that she hadn't seen in a while and wanted me to take pictures of them.
I did not have to be asked twice!

In the bottom pictures, you can see that I have put each of the darlings into an Ontario sunset.

I printed out several pictures for Shirley, Daisy and Bob and told them that they could give the extras to whoever they wanted to.
They were as happy as little children as they picked out different nurses and friends that they wanted to bestow their pictures upon.
They were careful to save some for their family members that would be visiting.

All in all Mom had a really good day because after we left the home, telling Aunt Marion that we would return on Thursday, I took that dear mother of mine to Wendy's for her favorite meal...A baked potato!!










Now I had told some of my blogging friends that I would be doing another cat blog but I have still not gathered them all up.
The ones I HAVE gathered are causing no end of havoc in this house but I will just have to grin and bear it until the rest of the guests have arrived.
Oh!! If only Susie's son, Vincent were here to settle them all down!

Apparently that child of Sioux Sue's, Turtle is waiting anxiously at the border for Adi to pick her up!
And Adi?
Well THAT little miss is waiting on Amber to finish watching her favorite program, "Deal Or No Deal"!!

Daisy And Her Family

It is very late at night and I am a little tired but I just couldn't help but put a short posting in about Susan's cats.

The Mommy cat, Daisy is the one that is in the frame that is surrounded with hearts.

I read Daisy's story at "Susan's Blog".

It is a very humorous and yet touching narration of this mother cat and her kids.

Nathan, one of Daisy's kids will soon be 16 years old, so Susan has written this little story about him, and I think all of my cat loving blogger friends would surely enjoy the reading of it!.

She also tells us about Moss, Daisy's other boy and relates the young history of the orange kitty,Rudy

The name of the posting is "Fading Away".

In the meantime , I have been gathering up all of your cats and few of your dogs and have invited them over for another visit to my blog.

It will be a happy reunion.

Susie's cat, Vincent will keep an eye on things.

Vincent is the one that caught Amber pinching her sister, Adi, and for sure, we can't have any of THAT going on! Grampa Jim has kindly allowed me to hire Adi again as the chauffeur.

Thank you my kindred spirit Susan, for the lend of of your cats!

I may as well keep them for a few days so they can join in the party with the others.....Love Terry
