A sunny day here but still cool. I figured mom needed my help in hustling her butt so I helped her by lying right near the keypad and mouse. I could see all the computer stuff but I got bored right quickly.
Good grief mom, don’t let Kali see this mess….she’ll start yammering at you in that weird little voice she gets when she’s ticked! See, I’m very helpful….just ask me…I’ll tell ya.
Mom’s not getting around so easily these days….dad had to can the tomatoes today.
It seems she has a fractured bone in her foot. The doctor decided it was best for her to wear a boot for support. She says the boot makes it easy to fall down. We’ll see how she can handle this boot for three weeks….then she’ll go to the doctor and see if there is any difference. If, she still walks like she didn’t make it to the kitty litter in time….she’ll have to wear the boot longer.
We want to say how devastated we were at the passing of Phoebe of 15 and Meowing. Phoebe had a difficult time with her health for some time but she is free of the pain now. We will miss her very much in Blogville but she will remain in our hearts.
We are sorry to hear about your mom’s foot. The mom here had to wear one of those boots for 5 months!! But she had a stress fracture AND torn ligaments and tendons, and she had to have surgery. So hopefully your mom can get away with wearing the boot for only three weeks!! We send her purrs and prayers ❤
Oh geez…surgery! Hopefully, the 3 weeks will be enough and it does seem to help her but this is a trial to see if it helps without her falling down. Let’s hope.
Maybe your mom should get a boot for her other foot too; then she can pretend she’s an astronaut! But seriously, sorry to hear she’s got a boo boo, and it’s up to you kitties to nurse her to health! Angel Phoebe leaving is very sad; we liked her very much.
I hope it helas up quickly and without pains and problems… hugs and potp to your mom ;o)
it’s nice how you pose next to a mouse without eating it ;O))))
Shoko, tell your Mom to take extra special care of herself and get your dad to do everything. (Don’t let him know I said that.) Jeff has had the same type problem that has gone untreated for two years and it doesn’t take much to have him limping in pain. We hope to be able to get him to the orthopedic before the year’s end.
And yes, we are very, very sorry to hear about precious Phoebe. She was well-loved.
It is pretty hard to do alot in a boot…mom gets tired pretty quickly. Dad is out of town for a week so mom won’t have to do alot of cleaning so she can sit more but mom’s not a sitter. I need a small hammer to hit her on the head….mol
fankss Madi fur thee beeuteefull poe-em!
An Aunty Jean not you all so?? LadyMum an mee know 4 Ladiess here inn town who frack-tured their pawss a have a snazzy boot like you! Pleeze rest an bee carefull. PHOOEY!!! Shoko an Kali lookss like you gurlss are ‘inn charge’ till Aunty gets uppy on her pawss again!!!

I was going to joke about your desk looking like mine until I read about your foot! OMG I am so sorry! Hoping it heals well for you! We are extremely sad about Phoebe too 😦
Seems mom has to finish off the summer with a bang. She has no choice but to take it easy now. She tried working around the house and fell on her butt….so it’s time to kick back amd relax.
YIKES on the boot. Looks like a torture device! I think you need to rent her a motorized wheelchair on a temporary basis – on the other hand, she might be bumping that boot into walls…..nevermind……I suppose you will all just have to do everything around the house while she’s wearing “IT”. I’m sure she’s hoping the bone heals QUICKLY so she can get rid of it. Please give her a TEDDY HUG from me and my Mommy!
I get the idea that if mom doesn’t hurt herself on the boot….sorry in the boot….the doctor will make her wear it for another 3 months. At least it isn’t summer so she isn’t doing as much. She says she got 22 pints of tomatoes and will give the rest away. Thanks for the the good wishes. We’ll try to help her. mol
kali N shoks…..sew what yur sayin iz… ya both can raiz ten kindz oh… soundz like swell, N knot hafta worree that yur mom can chase ya round de houz…hay ~~~~~~ !! 🙂 ♥♥♥
hope her does get rid oh that boot soon ~~~~~ healtheez two her ☺☺♥♥
That boot looks like a tough nut to crack. I hope it is gone in a few weeks. Then your mom can get back to her normal self. Thank goodness your dad stepped up for the tomatoes! Whew.
I gather if mom doesn’t fall down or otherwise hurt herself in this boot, the doctor will have her wear it for 3 months more. Mom says there was a big difference in her foot from the 1 day she had it on.
I love this badge for Phoebe and the beautiful words too. Thank you for everything, especially your friendship. I hope your mom;s foot heals quickly. XO
It was well done. I believe Madi and her mom did a great job. How are you feeling my friend? A terrible blow for your family. Phoebe will always be in my heart as well as the others she touched.
The boot is a pain to get on and Bill is at a family reunion on Vancouver Island so I do my best. At least I don’t have to wear it to bed.
Oh no sweet friends. I’m so sorry to hear about your mom’s foot. I knew what she did but wearing a boot – WOW. That has to be a really hard thing to get around. I hope your mom feels better soon. I wish we were closer – I would help you out for sure XOXO – Bacon
I wish you were closer too. It is very hard to get around but I try to do any shopping before I get the boot on in the morning. Not being able to drive with it on is a bummer.
Shoko, I’m sure you give your Mom lots of inspiration laying there as beautifully as you do. We hope your Mom feels better soon … our Momma would be tripping all over the place with a boot like that on.
We really miss Phoebe too. So sad.
Dads desk looks like Moms and then Rumpy jumps up and… things get sorted till next time.
Want to borrow him for a time MOL
io thanks, Shoko stretches out and knocks things off the desk. Then mom has to put them away. hehe I just hop…well, I don’t hop…I slip out of the cat pole and lay on top of everything on the desk…hehe Make do is my motto. mol
Oh no, we are sorry about your moms foot and hope it heals supurr quick… we’ve been trying to figure a way to ship mew some teabags but the post office says we can’t – PPFFFFFTTTTTTT!!!! Any idea’s?
Mom has a long mend….dr, is waiting to see if she can manage with the boot and in 3 weeks she will go back and if she hasn’t broken her neck trying to balance in the boot, they will make her wear it for 3 more months. mol
Mom guesses terrorists are sending bombs in t-bags now…you never know! How do they feel about loose tea? Just the same ? Is there someway you can ask them how to send tea to Canada? Mom came home with tea….so they’re not worried about the airplane.
Oh No bootyful girls, how did awnty Jean get hurt? We’re sendin’ lots of hugs and purrayers dat she gets well really fast. We know what dat not gettin’ to da kitty lit in time look looks like. And, mommy doesn’t even have a broke foot. MOL Big hugs
Mom fell down and fractured her ankle but she did that a few months ago. She thought her RA was kicking up so didn’t say anything until she was having too much difficulty walking. She just needs to rest the foot more.
