** I love my hand held Dyson Animal vacuum

The cats don't mind being vacuumed at all! Here is Khal doing Freia. The cyclone action actually took out loose hair. See the reservoir for dust and hair on the very left of the photo.

Khal made a great dinner when he got home from the gym at eight o'clock. I've been in bed all day.

 Here am I vacuuming Tangerine. I have been in bed since last evening.

I had my R hip bursa injected with Depo Medrol for chronic bursitis. When my physician injects it, she uses freezing that lasts for several hours. When the freezing comes out, the hip 'boils'. It is very painful for a day or two. After that, the hip will get better quite quickly and I will walk well for five or six months. I have been having injections in my R hip bursa for over forty years.

Diane Terry my wonderful massage therapist works on it every week in the interim. Diane owns two of my cats, Leonard Cohen and Rumi. My physician, Paula Carmichael is allergic to cats - but, she is very graceful about it!

I did get bad news from a recent xray series. I need a total shoulder replacement. Yuck! Soon, I will be totally bionic!

We are all finished and Tangerine is content to sit with me. I am supporting her behind her head but I'm not holding her. She has her ears back, but she is really quite happy.

The Dyson Animal was a Christmas gift. It's the best gift ever!
