IS IT MARCH ALREADY?

I can't believe I haven't posted since January.  Ever since Bear's cancer diagnosis, I've been pretty much focused on his health.  We're moving along with his chemotherapy and three weeks ago he was also diagnosed with diabetes.  Between his insulin injections 2X daily, his numerous daily meds, and his now every three weeks IV chemo, we are busy.  He is ever the gentleman, never complains, and accepts his various treatments bravely.  I must say humans can eventually make just about anything the status quo.  We are living in his new normal and I'm hoping he will have a decent remission before I have to face the next big thing.  I dread the idea of losing him....



In late January, The Gabriel Foundation participated in a bird festival at a very cool local nursery.  TGF is where my cockatoo Sydney lives now - he does outreach and education for the organization.  I was able to work the event and spend the whole day with him.  He was totally charming and everyone was very amused by his antics.  It makes me feel so good to know he's in a better place than I could provide where he has lots of stimulation and a real job to do!  I can never thank the Gabriel people enough for allowing him into their program.

JOY!!!!!!!!!!

Sydney realizes he's going to get a shower!


Syd demonstrates the correct way to take apart a spool and then put it back together. 
It's best to watch TV with a cat in your lap!


Mags came for a nice visit in February, albeit short.  It was quite cold and snowy so we stayed hunkered down and watched DVRs of Criminal Minds and sewed a little.  No running around looking for yaks and alpacas, though we did see a lot of the nearby llamas, simply because one can see them out my patio window.



Here Mags is demonstrating a law enforcement choke hold, while Aidan Patrick is protesting police brutality!
