I have to check your website today, and see what you have up about Bouchercon. I missed a few days of blog reading for some reason - smile. <br /><br />Aren't kittens so much fun? And, I didn't realize how big my 2 1/2 year old was until Jinx came home and was so tiny.<br /><br /><br />I'll pass on your wishes to Jim. Thank you, Jen.

Your Jinx reminds me of my twins when I first got them...about the same age...that fur sticking straight out all over. So cute!Mine are now 2 1/2 YEARS, I can't believe it.<br /><br />And Dickens! Ha! I just love that name!<br /><br />Please tell Jim I'm so very thankful he is still with you. How horribly scary. I have a few special prayers going up for you both.

He may be all bandaged up, but he's walking.<br /><br />We're blessed to have all those fur-babies in our life, Beth. They bring us so much joy. <br /><br />I came back from the drug store this morning, and the first thing Jim told me was a funny Jinx story. They certainly lighten the mood around the house!Lesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12946133849271512083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-9962022168872714472009-10-19T11:45:17.636-05:002009-10-19T11:45:17.636-05:00Oh, Lesa!

Nothing short of a miracle!<br /><br />I hope the two of you are on the mend and have a much calmer and healthier week. Good thoughts are headed your way.<br /><br />As a fur-baby mom myself, I so enjoyed the snippets about your kitties and seeing their pictures. All of them are precious! They are blessed to have you and Jim.<br /><br />Feel better soon, Lesa, and my best to Jim for speedy healing.Beth Hoffmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16770840174293503835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-9535250617603145482009-10-19T10:33:44.657-05:002009-10-19T10:33:44.657-05:00Jim's all scraped up with road rash, and has a...Jim's all scraped up with road rash, and has a swollen ankle, but he's alive, and that's what counts.
