I know we haven't commented in a few days - I have a new only comment on weekdays thing going - but I wanted to let everyone know we will be a bit behind on that for this week too. Unfortunately, my uncle's mom passed away this weekend so we are heading up to Milwaukee to the wake tonight. That will be taking away a big chunk of comment time. She was 85 and was a very cool lady - she will be missed, but she had a very good, full life and luckily wasn't "sick" for too long (though she probably was and just didn't know it - she went in the hospital about 2 weeks ago and they discovered she had lukemia). She even had fun at the end of her life - the retirement home she lived in had a bar downstairs (I am so living there when I get older) and she even had a boyfriend! Since my parents passed away my aunt and uncle are my closest relatives (my mom's sister and her husband) and I know this has to be tough on them - two of his brothers are sick too. So if you could send over some good comforting thoughts that would be great. They are the aunt and uncle with the cavaliers (and 2 cats too) who I talked about the other day.
Anyway, we will be back to commenting tomorrow in catch up mode - I got behind because I was working on some NKC stuff (and if anyone knows how to create a static page that won't show gadgets - email me how please) and so I only visited a few friends. But we are reading everything - just a bit slowly!
I hope you all had a great weekend - ours was mostly lazy - the cats slept a lot as usual.
There are new kitten pics up - you can click the link in the sidebar. I hope to get some more of our own cats up this week - I got a few cute ones of Barney. And Barney will be doing a post about Gracie at some point this week.
Well, I am getting a bit rambling now (tired) so I hope you don't mind! We miss visiting you all and send you lots of hugs til we can comment again!!
