Well, Thanksgiving's coming next week, but I'm a bit sad today, and I'm giving myself some time to reflect... What's sad is that my grandmother was diagnosed with congestive heart failure last night, and she's been at the moment, been battling through a series of "see-saw" feelings right now. She's planning on making it over to our house to spend the Thanksgiving week with us tomorrow, but we hope we won't go to her hospital if she's not feeling well to make the trip. This disease was what killed my other grandmother a few years ago on my mom's side, and it just saddens me about it too. Both my grandmothers were great people, and I remembered what kind of kindness they had given me during my childhood to the present. Though hard of hearing, and living about 94 years now, her life has been fruitful and everlasting. She knows she's gonna die soon, and it grieves me when that day will come... Right now, we're all gonna make her happy and being there as we should this coming Thanksgiving. I'm gonna give it my best attending to her needs as much as possible and make this a good Thanksgiving on us all. I hope everyone has fun at MFF. I wish I was there right now with everyone's support and hugs, but ah well... Current Mood: depressed

Well, I really had a wonderful time, and it was great meeting up with my fur friends again after a hard week's work. Saturday, we went to the Ren Festival (including my anime friend, Nathan, and his brother), some of us romping around in suits and high-fiving and hugging the kids for a few hours. After the fursuit romp, they changed back and we decided to go back in and explore the festival more. We had ourselves a tasty drink (thanks to me) - Wild Berry Casanova. This drink is a mixture of blueberries, blackberries, honey, sugar, and cream. Yum! :9 I even gotten myself an awesome talisman that communicates with animals, a small bottle of skin softener for my harsh paws from work, and (believe it or not) a sunburn which nearly everyone poke fun of. :p After the festival, we went to Cracker Barrel to eat dinner, but Wally Wolf and Digeri decided to go back home and won't be joining with us to the zoo the next day. So, we said our good-byes and hugs and the rest of us went to Dave's to sleep over. We also watched "The Cat Returns", which most of us had mixed feelings on how good the movie was. Zabercat, Kaltazar, Crusader Cat, Kofu and his mom, HugeWolf, and I slept after the movie. After a good breakfast of bagels and coffee, we headed toward the zoo, and had a good time as well. We watched lots of animals (including feeding of the sea lions), and Dave took pictures of a lot of animals that were active on that time of day. I, however, became sleepy myself after the zoo trip, but I went home safe and sound and headed to bed a bit early. All in all, it was a great weekend and thanks to everyone that showed up. It was a blast! ^^ Current Mood: cheerful

Yes, I know, seriously, I thought I'd go ahead and check like always and post stuff, but I realized I haven't done anything here. Honestly, I'm starting to draw up some stuff for Jester Cougar's fur meet booklets. I'm excited about this and I'm going through a few things in my mind right now. I have however did a few rough drafts which I already have given to Jester, which he liked. I haven't touched it for a while because I was too swamped with work, and by now, we had overstocked ourselves like crazy for the holiday season for Christmas, so it's pushing me back a little. Hopefully, I'll get this done sooner than later and making poor Jester wait too long (Jester, if you're reading this - I'll get to it very soon, and I apologize for the delay). When I'm done, I'll post it up here if I can. ;) Current Mood: creative

Well, I'm back in Charlotte - home sweet home! ^^ I had a great time back in Aruba and I was really missing you all - no seriously, I was! Having no laptop at all really bites, and since I never had one and my mom uses it for emails and my dad uses it for calls, it's been a hassle. :p In short of my vacation trip, I have won 3 Three of a Kinds in Three Card Poker at the casinos (one of them I have beaten the dealer on a straight hand and had no idea my 3rd card was a Queen for a Three of a Kind!), had lots of sun and relaxing fun at the Lazy River near the hotel pool, met LOTS of iguanas and lizards, eaten some GREAT sushi and other foods from other places, won a Bingo game and gotten a sapphire necklace as a prize, played a few arcade games, and slept really good on the sofa bed. I wished you all were there.... :p Tags: aruba Current Mood: cheerful
