Just to let you know that I'm still alive and kicking [well, walking anyway].

Twenty of us residents and 5 administration got to eat lunch with Huell Howser about 2 weeks ago and here's proof!

I'm also still quilting like a fiend - making a large quilt for our annual live auction at our Cinco de Mayo celebration and a smaller chili pepper quilt for our silent auction.

I had to have Chico euthanized this last November. His kidneys finally gave out with all his medications. He was 13 years old and I had been his Mom for 11 of those years. While I was sorry to see him go, he also had arthritis that made it difficult to put on his harness for walks and I felt guilty leaving him at home.

Little Bit and I will check out dogs later this summer [I have a friend who works at a vet's so will have and "in" with rescue dogs].
