Well whaddya know - here we are with a HUGE thank-you





From Mom Kim (ALREADY EVEN)  It only seemed fitting that this post be included in the Thankful Thursday Blog Hop altho I really cannot limit my thanks to just one day.

Well I would have NEVER thought I would be typing this already - I will NEVER stop being amazed at the power of prayer from Blogville and all other friends and family.  I so appreciate all the prayers, words of comfort and support and good vibes from allI was finally able to return to work earlier Tuesday(9/17) afternoon after my eye doctor appt.  Last week, after the lens kept coming out during the night, I contacted my specialist and spoke with one of his nurses - I told her what was happening and how frustrated I was and asked if she had any ideas.  Her answer - try using a little piece of tape to hold the eye shut during the nite which basically made it impossible for the lens to have room to come out - BINGO!

I saw my local eye doctor and now it was his turn to be really encouraged.  So that is where my vision problem stands now and for the next few weeks - unless I develop a new problem or the lens comes out, I don't return to either of my eye doctors UNTIL AFTER I have this BCC (Basal Cell Carcinoma) on my nose taken care of and it has some time to heal- surgery for that is Monday, 9/23/13.



Now then, I also have an update on my Shiloh-man.




Some of you may recognize this pic - it is a few months old HOWEVER the action is typical of what was FINALLY going on in my livingroom a couple of days ago.


Oh did it ever give my heart a big ole'warm fuzzy.  That was the FIRST time Shiloh had played with Diva Shasta for a few weeks.

You may not be able to see the chair, but this was the FIRST time Shiloh was up in 
his favorite chair 




 One time I looked in the chair and saw something like this HOWEVER I began thinking 

that maybe Diva Shasta laying on Shiloh's back just may NOT be helping at all so-

 now, if I see them then 
I make Diva Shasta lay beside Shiloh.
(at least for awhile)


because I really would like to see 
more of this-

Another change I made, altho not entirely new, Shiloh'n Diva Shasta are both back on their Duralactin - I had run out and never did re-order - the improvement continues.
You can look HERE for when I first posted about the Beaglebratz's response to it.

Ok - that is enuf for now - not making plans for our next post - all I will say is I hope me and/or
the B-bratz are back in a day or two.

And once again-
Mom Kim

Seems like there is much to celebrate and be thankful for around your home today...Having gone through a major eye injury a few years ago and almost losing my vision I celebrate your good news...And there's nothing more fun than watching two good doggie pals romp and play together...Smiles all around today

WooHoo! What a great week for good news - keeping the eye closed at night is a winner. Prayers cont., esp. after seeing Shiloh playing, napping (in a chair), and laying with the Diva. Oh, Happy Day!

Kim we are so pleased for you on all fronts. About time something good to be thankful about. Wow how something simple like taping the eye shut can make such a difference.
