Started the new backyard garden bed this weekend. Want an upper body workout? Start by digging into wet clay…guaranteed to make you sore within the the first 10 minutes.
Then head over to the home improvement store and haul as many bags of garden soil your car trunk can carry (20 cubic ft in a Hyundai Sonata).
Empty about 42 cubic feet of garden soil, compost and landscapers mix into your new bed…and realize you still need more soil.
After all is said and done, watch your adorably cute furkids clown around in the yard.
Conan is 11 months young this April. Like most kittens, he’s playful, full of energy, and a ravenous eater. He can be Conan the Annoyer during rambunctious play or feeding time. His personality has manifested in the past few months since his brother’s passing: he can be skittish many a-times but then comes around with lots of love and encouragement. He generally exhibits aloofness, only demanding attention on his own terms–which usually happens in the wee hours of the morning.
I’m happy to report that my employer has finally resurrected charitable fund matching after a brief 6-month blackout period during my company separation. This is the first time I will have the opportunity to support SockFIP financially with a recurring payroll deduction that my company will match 100%.
“Save Our Cats and Kittens from Feline Infectious Peritonitis (SOCK FIP) is a volunteer non profit organization dedicated to eliminating Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) through advocacy, community education and financial support for UC Davis-CCAH FIP Research.”
In memory of Drogo, born 5/9/2015, diagnosed with effusive FIP 1/20/2016, PTS 2/1/2016. He was eight months young, not enough time for his family to love this precious furbaby.
