Then the other day I went to the orthopedist for a follow up to my knee injury back before Christmas and to check on an old upper arm injury. Turns out I have bursitis in both places and the good doctor was only to happy to give me a couple of shots in both places to get rid of the pain, BUT I have pain now from the shots. She did tell me that all the pain should go away in a few days.
You also know how much I love kitties. Well, I had a poor neglected and very sick kitty show up in my back yard last night and was able to quickly trap it and called the vet. Unfortunately, it was too sick to save and we ended up having to euthanize it this morning. Was not a happy time. I was glad that it found it's way into my yard and that I was able to help it and put it out of its misery. You could see that it had been neglected for some time.
You see why I'm glad to put this week behind me.

Very cute card, thanks for joining us this week at Fan-tastic Tuesday
ReplyDeleteSo cute and what a fun little postal guy image!! Love the colors you chose too! :)
ReplyDeleteI love this guy. This card is so cute and I love the masculine color theme.
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm so sorry about all your troubles! I've had those shots in my thumb joint before and it's not fun. And what a miserable hassle to get your wallet stolen! I can just imagine what a pain in the neck that would be -- driver's license, credit and debit cards, and everything else. I've got some really old photos in there I'd miss an awful lot, too. Voter's registration card. Gosh, it goes on and on! You know it breaks my heart to hear about the poor kitty. I get so upset about things like that. But, yes, I'm glad he came to you. I just wish it had been sooner. Okay, so you've got a mighty cute card for the challenge, in spite of everything. Great image for sending a happy little greeting!
ReplyDeleteyour little postman is a adorable. love the color scheme
