Bebe Monitor July 18

Miss V'lu here, letting you know what's going on.

First, Mama got the okay from the vet to start decreasing the prednisone, as Bebe is doing quite well and is being quite fiesty. Mama will take Bebe in for another xray at the end of the month to see if the tumor has shrunk any. Bebe is eating well and catching flies and playing and sleeping and breathing easily, so that is keeping Mama and Mister Mike happy.

Mama stepped on two of my paws today - first the front one and then while she was trying to sidestep me alltogether, she stepped on a back one. She apologized and I let her pet me after she chased me through the house.

Mama is doing a mountain of laundry today and doing crafts. Later, she is going to make meat sauce or something with hamburger for supper - she's not decided what yet.

Mama's Reading: Finished reading "Age of Consent" by Howard Mittelmark, a cookie cutter horror. That about sums it up.

Mama's Listening to: Rod Stewart, particularly, "Do You Think I'm Sexy" from the late 70's. Freakin' Disco - I hear from Pinky that she never used to loudly flaunt her like for that genre until the mid-90's, and she insists on dancing with us - I mean, there I was, laying on the floor minding my own business and the next thing I know, I'm being twirled around the kitchen. I'm hoping that she goes back to Mars Volta land soon - less chance for random dancing then.

Squinting at you,

V'lu
