Thanks to everyone on the FML (starting with BIG) who sent personal messages to Dee and myself on Slinky's trip to the Bridge. I will try to respond individually and beg your indulgence on the time frame. Dee is giving extra loving to Lucky, Jack and Jill to compensate for their lost friend. She is a special person and that is why I consider myself blessed that she puts up with me. Buddy is happily picking on Baby Girl and Leroy every chance he gets. Hillary is getting over a cold. Hershey is his usual sweet chocolate self and my Bill just wants loving. He waits for me at the clear acrylic door barrier when I'm out of his view. What wonderful creatures they are.
