Proud of Bloomington's Firefighters by

Story from the Bedford, Indiana paper (since Bloomington's is pay-to-
view, and Bedford's isn't - strange since they are both owned by the
same company...)

An apology and a request by
GaDragonfly
First I would like to apologize to anyone receiving cards from me this
year. I will be printing address labels rather than writing addresses
on the envelope. I want you to get your cards from me before the
holiday and I'm running out of time. As many of you know, I work at a
university hospital....

I don't normally do this but I have to make an exception this time. See
"Grand Torino". It's a real winner.

Scroll down a bit once you get to the site, because there are a few ads
and links at the top. This place has the most amazing vegetation I've ever
seen, plus beautiful buildings on a cliffside, weird and forbidding...

Pet Loss Hotline at WSU by
Will in New Haven
I was looking at the WSU med school website for something connected
with my job when I saw that they have a pet loss hotline, staffed by
volunteers. We at rcpa and rcpc have each other but it is really nice
to see this concern. They have a link to the story of the Rainbow
Bridge there. It warmed my...

Kili update by
Steve Touchstone[_3_]
She's still hanging in there, and some improvement - not much, but any
improvement is good. When someone (was it Cheryl?) posted a link
http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kilikini to a journal I went the
guest book and sent a message telling her and her husband that we were
thinking of them and...

kili update in the wee hours of 12/17/2008 at 1:43AM by
jmcquown[_2_]
As posted by her husband on the CaringBridge site:
"(Note, I'm doing this in the wee hours of the morning. Any mention of
"today" refers to Tuesday)
She was responsive today. Unhappy and uncomfortable, but responsive. The one
doctor I did talk to was not at all positive in his outlook.
I'm...

Thank You, Guys! by
CatNipped[_2_]
You all know some of the things I've been dealing with lately - along with
the holiday blues that I get every year. But every day I come home from
work in eager anticipation of the cards that may be in my mailbox - cards
from all around the world, cards from dear friends that I just haven't met...

Help my friend's cat! by
Jane
My friend in NYC has a lovely black tortie who keeps chewing herself
raw! She's been to the vet several times, but nothing seems to be
working. Does anyone here have suggestions that she might try?
Keep in mind that she's got mobility problems and is very short of
cash, but she's willing to do...

purrs for Kili by
Steve Touchstone[_3_]
Last thing I did before going to bed was post a generally good update
on Kili. Well, today's journal update is not good. She was
unresponsive all day today. Yesterday they were talking removing the
oxygen, today maybe going back with a ventilator.
Purrs are needed that she gets over this bump in...

Almost a Cat Toy by
jmcquown[_2_]
I had a guy come out yesterday to make sure the minor damage to the house is
not termites, merely the expected (in very humid climates) wood rot. It's
wood rot. But while he was trying to move a sliding screen door over one of
the living room back patio doors he chuckled, noddled his head for...

Where is Everyone? by
CatNipped[_2_]
Is it just me, or has there been a lot less posting lately? It could just
be me - I tend to get overly needy at this time of year, and this group is
one of my life-saving coping mechanisms! I keep coming back to my
newsreader and fruitlessly hitting "refresh" in the hopes of seeing
something...

Per her husband's latest entry on the CaringBridge site:
"Bad news today. She has been unresponsive all day. She did respond to my
voice, but only marginally. She hasn't opened her eyes all day.
The respiratory doctor came in, I greeted him, he said, "She's in

My Christmas Came Early!! by
Magic Mood Jeep[_3_]
last May I put in a request for one of the new Smart Cars -
particularly a Cabriolet (convertible). They said it takes 12 - 18
months to get one. I wanted a bright yellow one, but now, with the
2009 models, that color is no longer available (but you can order the
body panels in that color, or...

Kili Update (14 Dec) by
Steve Touchstone[_3_]
It's been a week since I last posted an update, so thought I'd go
ahead and post another. I know some are checking the Caringbridge
Journal site, http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kilikini so are seeing
the daily updates already, but this is for those who aren't.
I don't pretend to know a lot...

Braving the cold by
Christina Websell
Boyfriend has been in all day apart from a brief foray outside early this
a.m. It's been minus some C's all week and yesterday it threw it down with
rain all day.
We've all snuggled down today with the woodburner on. So he had his tea
tonight and really needed to go out to have a wee. There...
