Tags, Some Good News and Some Sad News

First the good news. I went to the SPCA over the weekend and this is what I got.
Meet Gizmo...my new room mate.


I'm still not able to upload these graphics correctly so in the interest of time they are seem small.
Now for the bad news...
My ex-husband passed away this morning. I knew it was coming because my
Step-Son has been keeping me informed. He was only 57 years old and married to
his current wife less than a year. I could go into the many reasons he died so
young, but it doesn't matter now. I hope he's in a better place and happy.
This is the second husband I have now outlived. The father of my children
died of a heart attack at age 40.
Anyway, I hope everyone has a nice week.
Hugs, Joyce

  8. Joyce, I'm sorry to hear about your ex's passing. I remember you saying that he was in very poor health and not expected to live much longer.

    Congrats on your new kitty! Gizmo is adorable, and it looks like he (or she?) is getting settled quite well. When Sheeba sits like that (with his paws all folded up under thim), Ken and I say that he is "loafing," because he looks kind of like a loaf of bread. LOL

    Have fun with Gizmo!

    Hugs, Beth

  11. I'm sure you will enjoy each other's company. He's really a cutie. That is so young for both of your Xs. Your graphics seem to have loaded just fine. I tried to upload some in my entry today and they wouldn't go at all and finally got the two different ones to go on. Strange!! Have a good night :)........
