Thankful Thursday

Well I have a lot to be thankful for:
  • Daddy is feeling much better after his brain microwaving (Mommy Edit: Gamma Knife Surgery) on October 1st. His pain is now .5 on a scale of 1-10 where it used to be 15 (Mommy suspects he does not understand the concept of a 1-10 scale for those questioning the math). He is going to be able to stop taking so much medication soon.
  • I have a new human cousin named Mercer. I haven't met him but I saw his photo and he's very cute, like his sweet sister Petra.
  • I have such delightful friends on the blogosphere, who wouldn't be thankful for all that.

  1. Good to hear that you dad is getting better from the microwave surgery. You think I can shove SS into the oven whenever she gets migraine?

  2. w00t! That's good news about your dad! And forgive him, cause math is HARD. So the Woman tells me... *I* can add just fine.

  3. I'm glad your daddy is feeling better! Maybe his 1 to 10 scale was not in a microwave safe container during the surgery, and got cooked.
    It's so sweet that you noticed that we were MIA...Mommy's been just "phoning it in" lately for our posts and was waiting for inspiration...and she was busy doing homework for an MBA class she's taking, so she's been pretty worthless for about a week. She promised to help me post and comment Thursday evening.

  4. Oh Fin! I didn't know about your Daddy and am even more happy now that he's feeling better. I bet your doing a superb job, looking after him.
    Mmh, what's a cousin? Are they fun?
    Being your LSIF I happily count myself amongst your friends and again, I'm happy, that you're happy...and... now I'm confused. But happy! Need a nap now. Purrs to you on this thankful Thursday. Siena

  8. No MoMo it doesn't work that way, or Mommy swears she would have fixed Daddy with it herself.

    Mommy is no math wiz either, Max is there nothing you can't do? You're a wonder.

    Glad you're back Grrreta, hope your Mom passes her test.

    Of course we're friends LSIF! Can't imagine I didn't know you as short as a month ago.

    Oh WHicky you never fail to come up with some cute english phrase I've never heard of "Well Chuffed"? I am sure it's good.

    Me too Spooky, and thanks for the heads up.
