Good morning, LL!! Birds are already chirping here on this beautiful warm day in KC. The pollen is in full force, so I can't say I'm thrilled! Allergies are doing a serious number on me! Last night, Willie assisted with raking leaves in the backyard. For the most part, he'd just sit and supervise, occasionally coming over to inspect a pile. And then he'd come over and just start chattering away, demanding to be petted. If I stopped, he'd be up on his hind legs batting at my hand for more! :shock: :shock: :shock: After running to CVS for allergy meds (and a sub from Goodcents across the street... no cooking for the weary!), I had to settle in on the couch for some extended cuddles from Herbie who had to give me a once over to make sure I had properly survived spending time outdoors. When Willie finally came in, she rushed over to him, greeting him with literally a little leap in the air, a "thank heavens! you survived!" chirp and a nose kiss.

My dad is having thyroid surgery today, so I'm a bit preoccupied. Hoping they can avoid having to break his breastbone, which adds significant recovery time. He should be out of the hospital in time for the surprise visit on Sunday.

Off to find the kitters and shower... Willie had come btb, but left in a huff when Bit Bit came up on to the bed, clearly in the mood to play. She's now gone off too... Guess I should be up as well!

Have a great day!

I love how attentive your furbabies are to your chores and your outdoor safety! :lol:
Sending healing vines to your father, hope the surgery goes well and he has a speedy recovery.

That was so nice of Willie to help you rake leaves and keep you safe. So sweet on Herbie. It amazes me how well her and Willie are getting along.

Healing vines and good thoughts for your dad today.

Hi guys .. what a cute mental image of willie helping you out outside, and then herbie making sure you both survived the wilderness :lol: I hope your dad's surgery goes well .. my dad had his thryoid removed years ago, but it seems it was done with a laser, or dye of some sort? I was so young I don't really remember .. Anyways, hope all goes well! Have a great day!

Thanks, ladies! Dad's surgery went well and they didn't have to break his breastbone, which is very good news. He had a goiter which had not been visible b/c it was hiding under the breast bone. It was pressing on his trachea and the surgeons believed that while it was benign, if left unchecked, he could lose his ability to speak and possibly could develop breathing problems. They anticipate him going home Friday morning.

Willie's had some outside time tonight dodging the thunder clouds that appear to be passing us by with no rain... hopefully a bit will fall later! Meanwhile, Herbie's hanging with me on the bed, but has informed me that she isn't a baby, but is now a big girl who is too cool for cuddles and kisses. :roll: :roll: :roll: Well, except for when she's feeling lonely after being left in the house alone! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
Good news on your dad's surgery! Hope he has a smooth and speedy recovery. Willie, uh, those blues are nice but I'd like to see some green too. How 'bout it?
Liz
