I bought a few pairs of pants and a couple of shirts that fit way better and according to my son are fashionable too.

We also had a nice conversation with my older son who is still with us visiting. I'm happy he decided to stay longer and it's always nice having conversations with him even if they aren't easy ones.

I haven't mentioned my cat here but he's 20 and is not doing well. He had cancer removed from his skin a couple of months ago and his mind is going. He poops everywhere now and has other issues.

I hope I don't sound harsh but I think his time has come. He's declining quickly and I don't think old age will treat him well. We're also having difficulty coping with his pooping everywhere. We'll have to replace all the carpets after he's gone. Just taking it a week at a time at the moment.
It's nice to read about your enJOYment of your sons!

It's so tough when we reach the place where we may have to consider euthanizing our pets. It is a sad position to be in.

Please take good care during this time.
