Merry Christmas everyone!!! It’s been a year since we posted, hard to imagine that much time has passed. Between jobs and the girls we have zero down time, and even though we’re exhausted most days we’re also a very happy family. Mackenzie is six now and in first grade. Sophie is going to be five in about a month and in pre-k. Both girls love school and are settled in to the routine perfectly.
Binx is doing great. Amelia is doing well but starting to slow down quite a bit as she gets older. She much prefers naps to playtime now. Sadly, and we’re still heartbroken, Tony passed awAy over the summer. He ate something he shouldn’t have and choked on it when he tried to throw it up. We found him laying on the floor beside his favorite humans bed (Kenzie). Kenzie and Tony were so close. He adored her and she him. She still cries weekly about him. His loss will leave raw paw prints on our hearts forever.
We waited until fall and got another ginger, who we named Ozzy. Ozzy is about a year old and a crazy, happy kitten. He is incredibly good with the girls and doesn’t mind being carried all over the house dozens of times a day. He even tolerates playing doll dress up on occasion. He must have sensed the hole in Kenzies heart because from day one he decided he’d sleep with her every night - well at least after he and Binx play zoomies and tag for a good three hours first.
My health issues are the same. Same symptoms and consistency but nothing getting worse or better so I’ve adapted to the new normal. The neurologist said the lesions in my brain were not in typical spots for him to make a diagnosis so he wondered if it was stress related and sent me to a psychiatrist. I saw her for over six months and she determined I had no psychological issues and recommended I get an entirely new medical team to look at things. She was concerned it could be early onset Parkinson’s. Insurance won’t pay for a new medical team so I’m just coping and waiting for new or worsening symptoms to get looked at again. I’m not stressing about it, I’m too busy living life and raising two beautiful girls. It will be what it will be but I’m not worried. I even found out I have a half sister we never knew about this year. Such an exciting year!
I sure hope everyone is doing well. I know we lost a couple of very dear friends over the last year. They made a difference on this world while they were here and we will honor and remember them forever. I know many of you are looking forward to this years Dan calendar. I will try to get to it but we have so little time that’s peaceful enough to do such things I can’t promise to get it done soon. I haven’t had time to write either which stinks but I will eventually again and be at it as soon as I’m able. The second sci fi book is almost done, just needs editing and the second rainbow bridge book is half finished too. I did have to let blankets mountain website close for now. Prices got too high and trying to keep everything active was costing way too much. I do still have Neuro dans site up and will add new stuff there when I can.
I hope everyone has an amazing holiday and a wonderful new year. I will try to post updates more often. I’d love to get a video of the burn outs and spin outs the boys do at night playing. It’s hilarious.
Sleep with the angels tonight our friends. We luvs you all ❤️🩷💜💞💖
