POOR KITTY

My poor kitty! I picked him up from the vet this morning and he was sooooo grumpy. The lady barely gave me any instructions...she just said read this sheet, but I was late to work, so I didn't have time. She did say not to let him run around or jump on anything. How am I supposed to do that when he's home by himself all day - and he's a cat. That's what cats do! Well, the minute we got home he ran away from me and ripped open his left paw! It was bleeding all over my wood floors. So I quickly picked him up and nursed him. I resorted to locking him in the bathroom with a warm towel, his litter box, some food and water. I went home at lunch to check on him and he was so pathetic. He couldn't even walk straight. Needless to say, I'm going to baby him tonight. Poor kitty!

NO KITTIES/NO CLAWS

Bwana got neutered and declawed today. I was so sad to leave him at the Vet all by himself. He's never been to the Vet - heck, he barely even leaves the house! He sat on the armrest between the two front seats while I drove. Poor guy...he loved the car ride and the whole time all I could think about was the fact that he had no idea what was about to happen to him. His manhood being taken away...his only defense system. Hm...Am I overreacting?

Joining the Church

Matt and I officially became members at Calvary Baptist Church of Holland, Michigan! Well, I think I had become a member two or three times before, but this was his first. Here's our official membership picture.

We are really excited about God's work at Calvary. We will be signing up for a small group come November and can't wait to dive in!

SNOW ALREADY?

Ok, so I'm a little late on this news...because it happened last Thursday, but SNOW! ALREADY? Yeah, it snowed a little bit in Michigan last week. The happy summer/fall time is slowly fading away...and now we're on to the real reason Michigan exists - to TORTURE it's inhabitants with mounds and mounds of snow! Maybe it's not that bad...but the first snow always seems so horrific!
