Limping Along Here

Just a fast post to let you know that I'm still around, and will hopefully be back to regular posting before long. Lotsa dumb medical stuff, and so on have kept me from being on the computer much, and even from doing my nails as much, but things are on the upswing now (I think haha). Just because, here are a few phone pictures of recent manis to share with you what you might see soon.

I'm Doing A Happy Dance!

Why am I doing this happy dance thing? Well, because our fundraiser is a success! As you can see on the sidebar, $485 has been raised, and I'm MORE than happy to cover the balance, and maybe a bit more if needed for Valentino! This is so wonderful, and I canNOT thank the contributors enough! Not much makes me happier than being able to help in some way, and to know there are others out there just tickles me so much. It's so wonderful how people in the animal rescue community can team up and make a difference!

If you're of a mind to help, the next one I'm working on is Lily's eye surgery, and we may need a bit more for Valentino, so feel free to add a bit, but for now, I'm just celebrating that we can help this cat! In case you didn't know, I had all of my teeth removed almost two years ago because of severe problems with them, and that is why this struck such a chord in me.

So, let's give a round of applause to our generous contributors, and wish Valentino luck in his surgery!

Help A Kitty Out!

So if you know me, you know I'm into the kitties, and I like to help them. This particular kitty needs some dental work, and it's going to cost around $500 (vet's estimate). So, I'd like to try and help raise that amount, or maybe a bit more to help. I'm not sure how much I can give when I get paid tomorrow, but I'm going to plug all my spare into it, even if that's only $20. This poor beat up tomcat deserves so much more than to suffer, and the lovely lady who took him in shouldn't have to shoulder this burden alone. Let's take a peek at the pertinent info.

The post that kicked me into gear!

The video that might make you cry (Warning, there are some rather graphic parts in here).


The post I created for the ChipIn, on my other blog.



We've already got one generous contributor who donated $50... so let's see if we can get this done! One dollar, ten dollars - every little bit helps.

Editing to add: We're at $100, that's a fifth of the way, and with only two contributors! Also, I will be happy to provide whatever documentation needed to show once I make the payment as well. As long as I don't have to give my banking info out to somebody. Haha. And it occurs to me that with all the awesome people out there, we could raise more than what is needed. So if that happens, my plan would be to donate the surplus to Help Lily's cat have eye surgery.



Edit 2: Lookit, up to $145! I certainly hope we can get this done! Please, spread the word - if enough people can just give a dollar or five, we'll get there!

Neat Giveaway and a Stray.

In all my cruising around the internet, I really do come across a lot of giveaways and such. Now, lately I've not been keeping up with them very well, but I'm going to try to start doing better, so here's one now. DO check out all the lovelies in this giveaway over at BeautyBurg!

Talk about starting the new year off with a BANG! You can pop over here to enter, and this runs until January 31st. Seriously? DO it. And good luck.

Never Do This To Your Dog.

This is the second half of the transport pictures from last Saturday. Here's the thing, these are mill dogs. And it made me cry. Now, some people might say I'm just over sensitive, but I wonder how one can NOT be when they see things like this.

Some manicure Pictures... and Wildlife!

As long as I'm sitting here trying to wake up, I'll share some more manicure pictures with you. And, a surprise guest that showed up in our back yard last week. Let's jump right in!
