Life is short.....

Hi, my friends.

Freddy here.

Thank you again for all the nice get-well wishes you have sent me.  At this very minute, I'm feeling pretty good again.  What a roller-coaster the past 6 weeks have been.  I think the roughest ride was this week.

Have you ever been wormed?

Take it from one who knows, you don't want to be passive if anyone comes at you with a syringe full of white, icky, yucky stuff and shoots it in your mouth.  I thought I spit and flung most of it at my doctor, but apparently not.  Nasty stuff.

Nastier afternoon.  I will spare you the details.

The worst part, he didn't even think I had parasites, but this was 'just to be sure'.  

Right.

I'm also taking a new antibiotic....and steroids.  StERoIDs!?!  Does that mean I'll be able to jump higher than the sofa at a single bound?  Or win at tug-of-war which I hate?  I do get my pills in a delicious, chicken-flavored pill pocket, so I guess I'm not in a position to complain because...

 I!REALLY!LOVE!THEM~~!!!!!

love, love, love, love, love, love them!!

 

And that's a good thing, because with all the meds I've had lately, I've simply lost my appetite (hee hee--that's what THEY think!).  I've put myself on a doggy-cookie-diet.

Life is short.

Eat dessert....for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

So glad you are feeling better Freddy! You have been through a lot. I really like your diet!

[Wendy T]

I love cookies, too, Freddy, but I don't eat chicken. I know you wonder why not, but I don't eat meat. More for you, huh?! Feel much much better!

[Sue]

Get better sweet boy! We've been worried about you. Glad you're better than you were a few days ago.

Miss Wendy. My mom doesn’t eat chicken 🐓 either so I feel real special that she makes an exception for me when I’m feeling less than wonderful.   Hope you are having a nice day. Each one is special!!!

Oh, thank goodness you are feeling better dear Freddy...and thank you for letting us know! Eat those cookies and continue on this path. I just know ball bands can't be far away;) xxx

[steph@woolythyme]

Thank you!!!  Yes, I took a nibble on a stray knitting pattern just this morning.  If this can only keep up!!! I’ll be on to ball bands in no time!

[MARGARET REED]

So glad you are feeling better Freddy! I still think you need to talk your mom into helping you write a book. It would put a smile on everyone's face!

[steph@woolythyme]

Thank you Miss Margaret.  You know mom….all she wants to do is knit and take pictures.  I’d get stuck with all the real work!!! plus, she just doesn’t give me enough computer time.  sigh.  If only I had opposable thumbs and could use a pen!!  A book would be a piece of cake.  And all my furry friends could take a bite out of it!!!  

[Karen B.]

Freddy so glad you are feeling better! Big hug to your mom today!

[Buddy, dog of Maureen Rao]

Freddy! Dude!!! I'm so glad that you're feeling better! You've been on my mind a lot lately, and I've really been worried. You'll be out and about and eating poop in no time!

[Judy]

Chin up, Freddie. You will be back to your old self again soon. Just listen to Mom and do what she tells you. She loves you and wants you "all better".

[steph@woolythyme]

Hey, Budd!!!  Thanks for the shout-out!  Life continues to be pretty good today.  Just taking it one day at a time right now.  BUT, the crazy thing…..I have no desire to munch on poop.  Go figure.  It used to be my go-to after dinner treat!  History….at least for now.  Mom’s keeping me in cookies…..and I convinced her to give me my old food, which really wasn’t so bad.  I did find a ball band the other night…..HEAVEN!!!!!

Your friend,

hang in there Freddy, one day you will feel much much better and be back to eating knitting instructions :)

[steph@woolythyme]

Thanks, Miss Karen.  I had a teeny nibble just last night!!  Hi, to Frodo.  (I’m ignoring Holly.  I think she’s in Marley’s category in my world.  Us guys must stick up for each other.)

[Andrea @ This Knitted Life]

Amen Freddy. I'm sticking with you on your dessert policy (says the girl who literally just ate dark chocolate and strawberries for lunch). Take good care. Listen to your mom.

[Ann Denton]

Keep calm and carry on/have Stephanie tell you what this means

[Tract]

Poor boy, you've had a rough spring...Be feeling better soon, and for keeps... A cookie diet sounds good! ;) ((HUGS))
