177/365 A Walk In the Woods.
We had a house full of people. Five adults, a fourteen year old, two 12 year olds, a 5 year old, and 4 year old. There is also my poor sick Geronimo, Thomas the new kitty and three goldfish. The mother of four of the children is heavily medicated and does not seem to notice that her children are screaming and ransacking the house. I told her that the next time she came; she needed to bring medication for the rest of us. LOL.
Since I am not medicated, I took advantage of the beautiful golden light after most of the people left by walking the wood trail.
Don’t worry, Geronimo will be fine. He just had more allergy issues and another ear infection. He has had another shot and more drops for his ears. I do love his vet!

Escape is good, and healthy. Give Geronimo a hug (as if you wouldn't anyway...) and keep taking the escape medicine.

hmmm sounds like you could use a hobby! LOL Such a serene look, surprising after the day you described, but that is you - serene in the face of adversity. So glad Geronimo isn't seriously ill.

Glad to hear Geronimo is on the mend. Sophie has become so frightened of thunder storms (we are setting records for cold, rain, & thunder this summer) that we now have to give her Valium. We're thinking of changing her name to Val.

This is a beautiful SP Regenia, I am so sorry about the thoughtless Mother, I think that you should not invite her to stay again! I sympathize re Geronimo's allergies, Pele has allergies and we have to inject him every seven days. I wish you peace and quiet and dear Geronimo a speedy recovery.
