Tam Kitteh

For all of you who have been following Tam Kitteh’s progress, he’s doing very well. Diabetes is something he’s come around to saying what the hell, okay. He’s gained weight, comes for his shots and testing. And most of all, has taken up begging. This is the view from one of the living room chairs. He will now come and tell you it’s time for him to be tested.

Probably because he always gets breakfast or dinner after his testing.

My cat. He is a furry stomach.

Funny How Things Work Out

Today is my birthday. I’ve got about an hour and change left of it and damn it’s been a long day. Well a long weekend.

I’ve had good food, friendship and new ink. My mother called to talk to me about her garden and apparently her mango tree which shouldn’t bear fruit for a few years coughed up a really nice harvest and today, ripened a perfect sweet mango. A Rapoza mango. It’s very popular in Hawai’i. One of my favourite mangoes.

She told me she and Dad 2.0 would share it between them, like a birthday cake. I was all…. awwwwwww.

This is the 1000th post of my blog. So funny how things work out. Heh. A good number. A lucky number.

So… a good omen. And well, a chance to say thank you to everyone who’ve let me into their lives with my books. And well, stayed with me through the craziness of writing them.

Thank you.

And we’re having a cranberry walnut tart for dessert. Life is good.

And now a picture of my FIRST cake day… with the two men who shaped who I am during a time when I really needed shaping. My grandfathers. Miss you both. So much love. And kisses.
