iwonder if it is still good. Label says its for itching, my annotation is inflammation.... she apparently has both, and some red welts on the back of her right thigh.

Eucharist

July 17th ithink it was, itook "hand-fed Moo" to a new dimension, and fulfilled something of a Catholic school-girl fantasy....
"The Body of Christ" i intoned, presenting her a single piece of kibble, like a wafer. Then imagining myself in flowing robes and the Awesome Blessed Sacrament Church (Charleston, South Carolina,) I equated the bowlfull of kibble with parishoners lined up out the door. After a while, i switched hands, which i think the priests aren't allowed to do, and i modified my voice some, after maybe 45 times of my deep vocalization of the holy expression "the Body of Christ."
Then in a little girl's voice i teased her "Mattie, you're eating up all the Jesus!" After a while, we just went back to the regular 4kibble handfuls. (see old posts on http://missmattiemoomoo.blogspot.com .) Tonight i set the bowl before her after my fingers started getting waterlogged.
We aren't TOO serious! Hoping you have some fun soon too. It's "Hell to pay" if you refuse to love life! ;)

Happy

Confession

Very near here, Mattie sat in wait while the mail truck was parked at the corner on the other side of the street. It was so sad when the lady just got in & sped away that i decided the very next thing we were going to do was go get some cookies--different ones than i usually get! iforgot to take pictures but then again, as we stood by the cookie bar, "sampling" quite a few, the employees were suspicious enough. It conflicted me somewhat, to get non-vegan cookies, but i justified a SMALL purchase of alternatives so she could enjoy variety. Probably i purchased the quantity equal to what she had eaten "freely" standing in the store. ifelt conflicted by that, too, but not so much. =) She is having these symptoms more often: half her face stuck funny, hot tongue, dry nose, weakness in right rear leg & refusal to go for a walk. Part of me feels like we really should go camping--she enjoys
the wilderness a/ least as much as i do. ALSO, ithink the pollution in LA is really bad....
