Vet Checkup 2017 and a few pics

Despite the fact that hubby shot a nail 16 penny ring shank galvanized nail from a nail gun through his finger this week, as in an entry and exit hole, without going to the doctor. His back and feet are in almost constant pain, from broken ribs and vertebra that would put most people on a disabled list top it off with way too much arthritis.

The fact that I have not been able to smell anything for about 3 years, my left ear has been ringing for over 2 years, the left side of my jaw is catching and popping, a tooth that has had a root canal and cap hurts even though it shouldn’t have pain and my right arm  hurts.

 

I made Tyler & Trinity an appointment for this week, mostly because it’s just been awhile. Plus unlike us, they have a doctor. Mostly for a full CBC and possible urine pH test, because they’ll be 10 in a few months. I’ll let you know how it goes.

Winter

I love the peacefulness and quite a good snow brings. I like it even more, when it warms up quickly afterward so it doesn’t hang around a long time.

Snowflakes – try #… well I lost count.

God is amazing! Look at the detail.

I’m getting more captured of what I had in mind every time it snows. I love that they are all different. I may try again tomorrow. My hands got so cold I couldn’t feel the camera and when I went back in to warm up, they had mostly quit falling.

Can’t herd cats

I am trying to get a photo together for the Blue Ridge Humane Society “You can’t buy love, but you can rescue it” contest. This did not go as planned. My cats just didn’t share my vision regardless of how many treats they got. #hardtoherdcats

Tyler says…

Happy New Year ! 

The rest of the family is not ready for a 2017 photo just yet 🙂
