'Twas The Friday Before Christmas

Can you believe Christmas Eve is one week from today?! Well, I got an early present this morning when the vet called with the bloodwork results of our little patient pictured above; it was the best case scenerio - he's become severly anemic again most likely due to an infection (this has happened before but not in 10 years) so he's on a steroid & antibiotics for the next 3 weeks. He actually collapsed yesterday and scared me so bad! He's not the best patient when it comes to taking liquid meds so I may have to call the vet and ask for the pill form but for now I'm so relieved he's going to be okay and Hubbs is home to help me give Pinky his meds. (Hubbs has been 'seasonally' laid off for the next 8 weeks). Hopefully I'll get a chance to post some pics of decorations & the like this weekend, once I've finished making out the Christmas cards, and update in general - like how we saw comedian Bill Engvall live on Tuesday evening & our first big snow which may arrive this weekend! Hope you're all well!

Thanks Holli, me too! Had to call vet for prednisone pills as the liquid made him sick to his stomach twice so (I hate when my regular vet isn't avail like when I took him in on Thurs, I talked with my regular vet this morning and he agreed pills are better etc.)

Glad to hear your sweet kitty will be ok. We're not expecting much snow after all, I've discovered, on Sunday night. I can't help but be a little disappointed. I was looking forward to a nice big snowfall. Theresa

An Enchanted Garden Party

Welcome to my post! To visit other participants, please head over to the Practical Magic Blog Party 2010 blog. I must say that while I think Practical Magic the movie is adorable, I think the novel is incredible. And that is where I gleaned my inspiration from for these festivities. Gardens are mysterious, magical and enchanting, don't you think? Now follow me out into the garden, I have everything all ready for you, including music! (Turn your volume on). *Update: Music has reverted to my regular Fall soundtrack, 9/28/2010* For all of you non Practical Magic Blog Party folks, head on over to NJ Through My Eyes where I've posted 2 new slide-shows today; one is a preview of a new project I'm working on!

2009 Halloween Fete! (Saturday October 17, 2009) **UPDATED!** This shindig is still going strong!

Welcome! I'm so happy to have had so many visitors already! I must apologize for not being ready for you earlier! I also apologize for the wacky font sizes throughout my post. No matter how hard I try, I can't correct them. If music doesn't begin playing shortly after your arrival, scroll down until you see a purple music widget begin to load in the left hand column and wait until you hear the music before scrolling back up here. Happy Halloween Fete 2009! Love and Spookiness to All! ~Jo (Continue scrolling down until the end of the post) Outside, it's a gloomy & cold day here on the NJ coast. Many a restless Spirit wander here on days like this. One can never be too sure if the fog & mist are just as they seem. Inside, it is warm yet equally frightful! Creepy crawlies have gotten into the food & drink, I so hope you don't mind! What with all of the party hopping we're doing, I didn't want you to bust a gut, so I've laid out some Pumpkin Cook

For more Halloween & Autumn Fun, check out my "Autumn Tuesday" & "Halloween Thursday" posts by clicking on their labels in the left hand column. ~Happy Halloween & Pumpkin Blessings! *Update for those friends wondering, I put this together prior to surgery yesterday to make sure I would be able to post it for today! (Though it didn't post at 12:01am like it was supposed to). Anyhoo, I'm home and resting (uncomfortably). Surgery went well, my kidney tube and stone are gone! I have an internal stent on the left hand side but I'm okay with that because it comes out in the doctor's office in 2-3 weeks (no back to the hospital) and especially because it meant they could take that nephrostomy tube out! (The last nearly 2 weeks of that 15 weeks was rough with that thing, my body was simultaneously trying to heal aroun
