Ice Storm
Originally uploaded by aprilandrandy.
Forecast for today: sunny and 88 degrees. I should be happy: it’s warm, the sun is shining, my tomatoes are ripening on the vine. But it’s not warm — it’s hot! The sun is frying my flowers and [...]
spam

I admit it: I love SPAM (the canned meat, not the unwanted e-mails). I grew up having slices of it fried up for breakfast, served with steamed rice. I believe my parents started to eat SPAM while my father was [...]
Letter

Letter-writing is becoming a lost art. When I receive a handwritten letter via the U.S. Postal Service, it practically bowls me over. It’s a rare individual who takes the time to commit thought and feeling with pen to paper anymore. [...]

Eldar after the visit to the Vet
Originally uploaded by aprilandrandy.
After two days of IV fluids and antibiotics, Eldar is home frome the veterinarian’s office. She looks much better, much fluffier from the fluid she’s retaining for now. She’ll get bloodwork done again on [...]
Good news! Eldar has responded well to the treatment and her prognosis is good. It’s really nothing short of a miracle.
Here are what her test results have been. Two days ago her BUN (blood urea nitrogen) was 140 and it should be 30. Today it was down to 65. [...]
