Your header, the vintage card and the sweet face peering out from under the decorations - all images to make me smile as I start my day! I love oatmeal too - the real thing - not from a paper envelope. I hope you enjoyed yours!
Great news about Teddy! I know that must be such a relief. We're putting our tree up this weekend. We're interested in seeing how Chase Bird will react. Good luck to the Owls! Our local high school is playing in the state semi-finals tomorrow. The game is in far southwest Virginia, so we're not going, but I do hope they win. :-)

I like oatmeal and I save it for cold mornings.
It is an oatmeal day!

Christmas is just around the corner.
Time to share a reproduction vintage postcard.
The artist on the original card was Margaret Evans Price
and it was published around 1922.

"I'd like to share with you the joys of Christmas day,
so I send this little card on its
Merry Christmas way."
Thank you to the lovely Beth for hosting Postcard Friendship Friday.

We girls (Cassie and Mina and moi) got an early Christmas present
and you might say that Teddy got one too.
It was time for Teddy's six month ultrasound on his heart.
He has hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and is on medication.
He passed with flying colors yesterday.
His wonderful vet said there was very little if any change.
The medication is working.
Yippee!

I haven't decided if I'm finished decorating.
While I'm deciding,
Cassie burrows under the tree skirt and moves the non-breakable ornaments
on the bottom of the tree onto the floor.
"Just helping, Mummy!"

The Rice University Owl football team is playing for the conference championship
tomorrow. I'm going. I'll probably freeze my fanny and other parts of my anatomy off,
but this doesn't happen often and I want to be there to see these scholar-athletes
get the job done. The football program here has the third highest graduation rate
for college football programs in the country.
Go OWLS.
Wishing YOU well and much joy!
