Back from the Dead-ish…

Back from the Dead-ish…

Alrighty yes I have fallen off of the face of the world yet again and this time it was pretty bad. It seems like when it rain it really does pour.

After the loss of Polka Dots my horse I was and still am pretty empty about it. But some good news in the horse world I barely put a month of work into a Paint Horse named Rio. Who is sweet but can’t always figure out where to put his feet. I took him to the barn’s schooling show and won grand champion with him.

Then the poor thing Rio got a fungus on his tail and rubbed the entire thing out. I was out running around in the middle of the pasture trying to find the strains to make him a fake tail. I did not find much but a little was better than nothing. I also later took him to another show (with his “new” tail) off of the property and also again placed grand champion on him. So guess I just can’t give up riding now can I? ^_~”

I also had a piece of mine picked to go into the school’s gallery and the museum downtown. It was an abstract cut paper piece called Sonar. I’ll add a better picture of it as well.

Sadly shortly after the loss of Polka Dots my little Rat Anabius passed away he was 2 ½ years old which for a rat is pretty old. He was an awesome little guy he ran the house and kept our three cats in line. He was defiantly special our hearts go out to you and may you have and eat all of the marshmallow peeps possible. BOCA RATON!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With the death of each living thing also brings life. Tony and I were clearing out some vines by the side of the house and found 4 kittens. They were very small with bright blue eyes. There were two boys and two girls. The girls were orange tabby and one boy was also an orange tabby with white feet and the other boy was a gray tabby with white feet. Round the clock bottle feedings shortly followed but they were so cute. Luckily our Grey cat Dahlia fell in love with them and was able to give them the mother’s touch they needed.

I survived my school finials and even took a few summer classes. I enjoyed a painting class and learned a lot about the use of oil paints. I have a few pieces that I will upload shortly. I have been working on some odds and ends here and there.

I also went to my high-school reunion defiantly interesting. Then again The Grier School was always interesting, it’s an all girls boarding school in Tyrone PA. A lot has changed and at the same time nothing much has changed I saw a few very good friends that I did miss.

My 21 birthday also arrived and I have to say I had the best party ever. No, not the “traditional 21 B-Day ” instead I had my brother over to visit :icontssjim: and he and Tony planned a party for me and I had a blast! I even got my very own Piñata! My first one ever! XDDD!!! And I broke that ASS! Literally since it was Donkey. XDDDD!!! They also got me the perfect cake it was covered in orange frosting with wild orange flowers! XDDD!! They also took me out to dinner at Tokyo Steak House so I stuffed myself with sushi. They even re-fixed my computer and networked the whole thing. It was awesome. XDD!!

Tony :icontvperez: and I went on our summer vacation and I believe this has really helped me. We hit the road for another car trip and went across the country to about 30 or so different National Parks. Man some of these parks are truly amazing. Yes you probably see pictures of these various places in books but actually going and seeing them in person is just amazing. While on this trip I felt more inspired but these works of nature and also more at peace. I have many many more photographs to upload of these places and I will add a list of where each is as well.
I also saw the musical WICKED and wow! That show is just amazing I really loved it I can’t stop singing the songs and seem to be going through a bit of an OZ theme?! XD!

Like I said when it rains it does indeed pour. Our fist cat, Norman D. Cat is currently at the vet he has been there for almost 3 days now. The poor thing he was fine one day and then the next morning he was going into shock. His little bladder is blocked and the vets are trying to see if it can be reversed. Norman is not a happy cat he is starting to turn on the vets and their medications. All I can do is hope for him and visit him every day he starts to look a little better but then he gets a little worse. Mostly just touch and go. I’ll let you know more results as this continues.

I am trying to stay strong but it is so hard and so sad. My pets as stupid as this sounds they are my best friends and I love them so much and I don’t want them to suffer yet I do understand that this is life and that by getting them the medical attention they need is the best thing a loving owner could do, and to try and comfort them as well.
Guess that’s about it for me re-updating I am just really blah and worn out, I keep feeling more and more numb. Yet I want to blab on I guess I am still just Beth. ^_~”

Glad things are going a bit better. Hope all is well with you and Tony!
Hey Beth, long time no see. :wave: All I can say is, wow, you've been a busy person lately, too much to comment on. ^^; I'm deeply sorry to hear of your tradegy with your horse Polka Dots, I have two pet rabbits, and I've had them for a few years, I dread the day when they pass on, but I'm sure I'll be able to cope. It's nice to hear about your new horse Rio, and all the positive things like you winning grand champion. :w00t:

Your cat Norman's a really sweet cat by the look of his picture, but I'm really sorry to hear all the troubles he's having. Sounds like you've had your fair share of ups and downs, but it's good you've been able to rise above the downs, and ride the ups. :) I can't know how things really are, but I hope they're for the best, chin up. :)

hey kid. do you know what is causeing the blockage? does he have a catheter? my kitty gets crystals in his bladder and that causes a bladder. he was in the vets for a few days then he got put on special food for a few months and he can only drink distilled water. i hope that he ends up ok.
Bethie's alive! *glomps*

I'm so sorry again about Polka Dots, and then to hear about the other bad things happening on top of that. I hope things turn out okay with Norman, he ought to be just fine once they figure out what treatment is best.

On the good side, congrats on winning Grand Champion! You'll be feeling like yourself again soon enough, you have Tony, your friends, your other pets, new kittens, and me to give you love and hugs! Bahahaha, fear the hugs of doom! :giggle:
Yeah poor little guy he is still at the vets.

Yeah the poor thing thats whats wrong with him and they put a catheter in him for 3 days now and then they tried to take it out so he could by himself but he can't and now everytime they try to put it back in him he is fighting and then they have to sadate him. They are thinking that he might need surgey to make his little bladder hole bigger but they are not sure if he would survive it. Sadly he is a really healthy cat he has arthritis and then other medical problems it’s hard because they want to do one thing but then the side effects for his other aliments are really bad. Guess we are just stuck in the middle trying to see what can be done but thank you so much for caring I really appreciate it.
