This Monday we have a HumaneOhio day. We will be sending Feather up for her spay. That way, she can go to her new home on Weds. This coming weekend, Singita's new family will be arriving to take her home too! There's also a possibility of another of the inkies being adopted on Saturday! It looks like too that Lancelot may have a home! More on that later!
Yesterday was our Flash Sale by Mich and Vern. Many thanks to all who made this possible! We sold almost 100% of everything--making $781 for FFRC. We are so grateful!
We had BOXES on Monday. I am always just thrilled with BOXES! Many thanks.

Our boy Oliver Taylor Blackwell was at the vets office on Monday. As we knew--his rear left leg is fractured, both top canines are also fractured and his left eye has hemorrhaged. We are treating his eye. Unfortunately due to the location of the fracture, his leg is not able to be pinned. The femur is completely broken away from the lower "knob" of the femur. This bone is the strongest bone in the body--it takes a lot of force to break it. What a sport he is though--such a happy boy! He takes his treatments and meds so nicely. On Friday morning, he will go to the vet's office again for a leg amputation. Oliver Taylor Blackwell will be back later in the day.

Buck was here today and fixed the attic pull down door! We've had a lot of fun with that "mistake". He also did a list full of little things that needed repair.
Tomorrow, Thursday, Tri-Country will be here in the morning to put an additional 4 cam lights in. We so love these cam lights. They seem so much easier on our eyes too! We just need a tiny bit more light!
The FFRC 20th Anniversary Celebration has an updated thermometer! Wow--all that red climbing up is awesome! Many thanks.

These are
purely just suggestions. And if things still come in on those that are marked
full, that is just fine! As things come
in, we start sorting them into category, whether it’s a Basket, Big Ticket
item, Big Big ticket item or a Fun-Raiser
items. Plus, we know some people like to
make new baskets up or a specific basket themselves and that is perfectly fine!
The more, the merrier! As time goes on, this list will constantly be
adjusted.
BOXES tomorrow, Thursday at 2:00!
