Journal Entry for June 18, 2007 Mood
Monday, June 18, 2007

It was a nice weekend to spend with Mr. Nutkins after his week-long trip. One of our siamese kitties got sick with an ear infection on Friday. She was pretty limp and had some red tinged drainage out of her ear. I took her to the cat vet early Saturday morning. She got a lot of attention there because she is so beautiful and well behaved. I was beaming with pride!

She needs her teeth cleaned, but cannot be anesthetized because she is 14 and has a heart murmur. The doctor said she may not survive it. That made me so sad to think of, especially after just losing my mom. Chloe is my right-hand girl, my shadow. By the next, Chloe was feeling so much better and bounding all over the place! She had lost some weight but is gaining it back. She was only just over 6 pounds at the vet's office.

 I went to the air museum with Mr. Nutkins, where he is a docent. It has been a long time since I had been there with him. That is where we met. I got to see a new display plane with an open cockpit and sat in it for a while. Fun!

We had a great time with my dad, brother, and sis-in law for Dad's-day. We really spoiled him with all of our gifts, which he well deserved. Then we were all of to see the Pirates of the Caribbean movie, all of us. It was a long and busy movie. Now that I have seen it, I can say the first one is still my favorite. It was good to see Captain Barbosa again.

This week, Mr. N and I will shop for some gorgeous wood for our new project. We are going to make a box for my mom's ashes to be displayed on lace with a picture and a few of her trinkets inside. It will be mostly his woodworking skills, but I will help. He does beautiful work.
