The kittens don’t get ALL the attention. My little sweet potato lays on all my stuff so I have to notice him. (He still gets lots of love.) Finally, an ice photo.

Yay! Found my camera just before bedtime, in a perfectly logical place. Not in time for new photos, though. So here’s another book with a clay cover, inspired by the stones and cairns at Newgrange near Dublin, Ireland. Pablocito nursing his blanket.

Oops! I didn’t take any photos today, and I left my only working camera in the office. I’ll make do with previously taken photos. Miss Lucy is very sick again. She spent the day at the vet having diagnostic tests and xrays and fluids and shots. This photo is from 2006. We’ll know more tomorrow…
