Remember these guys?
Well, they are growing up fast, as you can see here in my “gatos amigos” fotki album.
Here is some Wiki information on Ragdolls and a link to the Ragdoll breeder where Sara & Steve bought the boys (if you go to ‘our boys’ and scroll down, Tam is their dad). Foley is a blue mitted, and Murphy a blue colourpoint.
I’ll be adding new pics to the album as I receive them.

It’s day ten after the last infusion and the sun is starting to shine again. Well, in terms of how I feel – it’s actually been nice and sunny here for ages. But it’s around this time of the chemo cycle that I can start drinking cool beverages again, take stuff out of the fridge without it hurting my fingers, and stop feeling so bloody weak and bleh. I could tell it was different when I woke up yesterday morning … can’t really explain it, just that things felt less “heavy and bleak” and somehow less “wrong”. What a relief!

The Amazing Mudhooks has done it again.

Flaming June by Frederic Leighton transformed. If you would like to see yourself depicted in your favourite work of art, I believe Mudhooks has now hung out her shingle and is taking orders.

Yesterday evening I finally got to see Flor’s rooftop garden.
Some of you may remember that I met Flor shortly after going back to yoga in January. Haven’t seen a lot of her recently because she’s been spending a lot of time in Portugal (she has property there with an amazing garden), though she did come with me for my last “chemo picnic” on April 23rd. Anyhow, I’ve been dying to see her place for ages and so after our post-yoga juice break yesterday she invited me to come over after I finished my class with Dr A.
Had a great time, a lovely meal and got to meet Flor’s two cute pups and gorgeous cat. Later on today we’re going to tart up her blog with some of the photos I took, but for now just a wee sneak preview …
