Toe tales

I opened the door for that cat last night, and it stopped promptly at my big toe. It hurt. I knew it was more than just a stub when I reached down and felt my toe nail sticking straight up through my sock. Only HALF my nail is gone- so far. I'm sure I will loose the entire thing before it is healed. Anyway- we did not have great bandaging supplies, so we made due with a pantiliner and Dora bandaids. Ella was very consoling and concerned as Chad bandaged my toe- she even blew on it for me, so it would be all better.

So- the cats were outside all night, for the first time since the move. Simon was here this morning, but Lola was not. She was found, and is currently at the vet. She seemed to be bleeding alot, but apparently only has several toe nails missing. This could be due to being hung up somewhere OR from a run in with a fox/raccoon/dog. Who knows what happened- but apparently it was the night for foot trauma! I have to go get her after the kids wake up from naps. The cats have never been prey before- always just predator. They may have to be kept inside at night up here. We went to the library again this morning. Ella hooked up with another girl right away. I don't know if it is the area- or just coincidence, but the names of kids there are so unique. Madigan, Talula, Liam, Sage, McCade- just to name a few. Seriously- unique names. It was a fun hour. SO- I leave you with a picture of my toe- bandaged of course. I haven't looked at it unwrapped yet today- didn't think you all would want to see either!

P.S. No one has booked us for Easter yet- You can come hunt Easter eggs in the SNOW!!! Fresh snow is falling AS I TYPE- anyone- anyone???? OH- and forget about needing to buy a nice new springy Easter dress- no one will care what you are wearing under your Columbia coat and Patagonia ski pants, and North Face hat and gloves. All you need is a pastel scarf to make it festive. WHAT AN OFFER!!!!!!
