A beautiful day! Although it does look like winter out there, with all the cottonwood fuzzies still flying around. They seem to be exceptionally heavy this year. In the middle of a 1 foot deep clump of the fuzzies was again Fabio! I went to sweep this enormous pile away and my broom hit something---sleepy Fabio looked at me! And then Gwendolyn came by and she was covered in green pollen and seedlings. She too got a good brushing!
We had BOXES last night. I'm so very grateful for this help.

Our Jessie had her dental surgery yesterday. She had a full mouth extraction. She's still feeling a bit punky, but is resting comfortably. She is such a good girl.
Wow--the inside of The House that Jonah Built is DONE!!!!! As of this morning, the painting will be done! We need to do a good floor sweep and scrub and then can move the furniture in! We also have 2 bird feeders that will go on the outside of the fence. I was so excited at Shipshewana to see two red cement fire hydrants. Well, I had to buy them. One is on one side of the playground and one is on the other. We all know the Covies are expert sprayers. What better thing to spray that a fire hydrant! Check it out when you visit!
Ahimsa is still lagging on eating by herself. She will eat when being spoon-fed baby food. I know that this is not 100% nutritious, but that's ok, for now. We just want to get her appetite sparked. She does come out off and on during the day to watch things from her tower perch. Her fur is looking healthier too.
Bella has it made. A Queen bed was donated to her. That is, a cat-size bed with the word "Queen" written on it. It's now in the dog's pen where she spends so much time. And she does NOT share it with the dogs!
Jerusha is wonderful. She is so patient with all those kittens in the back Thumper's Room. They run, tumble, roll and act like crazy kitties Jerusha is a role model of a mama cat. It's a happy room!
