Everytime I move I seem to horribly neglect this place.
I'm still alive, dealing with a buttload of stress and irritation right now though.

Got a new to me camer (Nikon D70) hoping to upload pics or something, who knows!
Have lost a fair amount of lovely critters We lost Eureka (guinea pig) on Easter, it was disheartning.

Hoping I can find my way back here someday, just been so busy this past long while. Same thing, different day though, work, gym, home, critters. And internet has been sorely neglected. It's been great though, i've lost close to 50 pounds this winter and am on my way for a nice bikini season I hope, fingers crossed I don't narf down any onsale easter chocolate

But yes, I have moved again into a small wartime house, took my parents in so they wouldn't end up homeless, they made it clear it would only be for 2-6 months, it has now been 8 months :/ I love them dearly but I want my house back!  

We adopted another cat, a munchkin cat who I am 90% sure is Cabooses mom, I got intouch with the lady who I got Boose from and she had to give her away, but will send pics of Boose, his mom, brothers (who were not munchkins) and his father (who was also not a munchkin). So i'm hoping the pics she sends will prove or disprove that Arrietty is Boosey's mom. In which case that's sad as Arrietty was found as a stray and turned into the shelter, noone claimed her so she was spayed and put up for adoption. Munchkin cats don't do so well in the wild, they have stubby legs, can't really climb, jump or hunt. She seems to be doing really well here though

I have resolved I will not be getting anymore guinea pigs after I lose Ripley, and am not getting any new rats, with the small space I have I feel the 35 I do have is more then enough, especially since I have many seniors now who need extra vet care. My eldest girl, Donna has a huge mammory tumor (not cancerous) and because of her age and health the vet will not remove it, so we're just gauging day by day her quality of life, so far she still has more good days then bad but I know putting her down is more then likely just around the corner.

The big boy dogs have a weird fungal infection, so we have to bathe them with a special shampoo, hoping that clears up quickly.
We had a bad week a few weeks ago, Boose hurt his leg, 350 bucks at the vet they had no answer for us and just gave him anti inflammatories and a pain killer shot, he healed up fine. Then Panther started bleeding badly from his mouth 150 bucks later we had a mouthwash and medication for him, our best hope is viral infection, worst case being cancer We have to take him back to the vets for bloodwork soon to see which it may be, but he's healed up and looking great, so hoping just viral infection.
Then angel hurt her front leg was swollen and gross, same thing as boose, pain meds and anti inflammatories and she was good as new. Now Arrietty seems to have a small bald spot on her head, we're going to wait and see if it gets worse as it could be a fungal infection or ringworm, or who knows, but it doesn't bother her, isn't dry or flakey and has no odor, just a small patch with no hair on it.

Anyway, eventually I hope to upload things, I have a few paintings I need to work on.
But anyway, I gotta drag my lazy butt to the gym

Hope everyone is well! Hopefully I can return, comment, fav and upload one of these days.
