Ths is Bella, attacking my poor defenseless kitty,


but she won't be doing that for awhile. I was awakened by Carol at about 5 o'clock this morning, holding Bella and saying, "Look who I found outside". Seems Carol noticed we only had one kitty this morning and Bella, who is normally on our 2nd floor bedroom deck/rail to start the day, was nowhere in sight. SOOO, she went outside looking/calling, and found Bella hiding in the flowers, below the deck, with a hurt paw. Left front, swelled up. Was gonna take her to the vet when they opened (not sure when/where on the 4th of July), but after leaving her in her favorite spot in the dining room, I returned a short time later to find she had climbed the stairs, jumped up on the 2nd floor railing, then jumped to her 'window spot' which is difficult to get to, even when NOT injured. So we decided to wait on the vet, as it looks alot like a sprained ankle and I'm not sure what, if anything, can be done. Anyway, she's moving around the house, jumping up and down, although definitely favoring her good paw. No emergency as I see it, so will let her owners make the 'vet' decision. They should be here in about 7-8 hours. Can't wait.....

Awww poor Bella! There is an emergency 24 hour vet right by the Target on Midway and Highway 287 in Broomfield. Just a fyi for the future. I have never been but it's nice to know it is there. I think if she is jumping and not crying waiting to take her to the vet is definately not a bad thing at all!

Hope Bella has a fun recovery, and hope you enjoy your BBQ. We have made it in past years but this year we won't be able to!

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...
