Since May 14, 2005 Miko has been at the Santa Clara County shelter. Today, June 24th, 2005 I went to visit him like I usually did twice a week. The last time I was there, Miko had been moved. He had been in the back room, on the bottom row, where the new and stray cats are kept. Now, he was in the front room in the middle row. A much better place for him. I gave him some treats, patted him for a while, talked to him and told him he was a good boy and to keep using his litter box like he had been. That was on Monday. Today I did not find him in either room. With trepidation, I checked the front desk and learned that he had found a new home. I was both sad and glad that someone had given him a second chance considering his circumstances. I will miss my "nut child" kitty dearly.
Goodbye Miko and Good Luck.
With Love,
Rich

Update 2005-06-24
Uncle Russell: Russ is in the hospital with blood clots in legs. Apparently, he got them Sunday night after mowing lawn. My guess is a combination of factors including, diet, exercise amount, long drives in cars and possibly something to do with the spot on lung. Biopsy has been taken for analysis. He's on blood thinner shots. Not sure when he's going to get out of hospital. I'm sure Nana is taking this very hard. Brings up some issues if God forbid Russ goes before Nana.
Adoption: The bedrooms are painted, carpeted and new blinds. The bedroom furniture for the children's bedroom should be here on the 28th in time for Ana's visit. Got word from Nancy that Ana's passport and the letter from the judge allowing Ana to leave the country are in hand. Nancy will get Ana's visa next Tuesday. I need to get cash from the bank to cover Nancy and Ana's plane ticket and Ana's visa fee. Nancy says our paperwork arrived and everything looks in order. Need to do a number of things before Ana gets here. 1) Check all drawers and cabinets for child danger items such as medicine, alcohol, chemicals and sharp objects. 2) Clean the vehicles. 3) Get child booster seat if needed. I wish I knew how much Ana weighs so that I can one before she arrives. 4) Take dogs to groomer and vet. Make sure shots up to date and Jackie's ear looked at. 4) Will need Medical Release for Ana's visit. 5) Find out if OK to take to horses and ride. Wow, only 12 days away. We'll be going to Bonfante Gardens, shopping, horses, Santa Cruz maybe, a horse show if one around. Videos are on way from Amazon.com Lot's of questions for Ana without us being a pain. Going to be hard because we're going to want to know everything about her and her life.
Animals: Lisa said Pali looked a little off yesterday. I gave him a gram of bute. I need to schedule worming and shoeing dates for everyone. I also need to bring everyone's shots up to date especially West Nile. Pali and Bonnie are OK on spring shots and West Nile but need to set schedule. Jack and Sumo need shots I think and Jackie's ear needs to be looked at. Bonnie is getting better at the canter and less attitude. Ellie needs some spook training. Tanner stops training June 30 until November. Pali needs some tune up work.
House: Need to seed the bare spots out back. Give the little tree some B vitamins. Mow lawn and edge everything before Ana and Nancy's visit. Take wood to ranch. Pick up fuzzy pillows and nuts at Costco. Review what's in refrigerator and clean out any old stuff. Go grocery shopping on 5th for staples, fresh fruit and vegetables, healthy snacks. Haven't got a clue what Ana normally eats but we'll try and cover all the bases.

Friday 6/3/2005
Not much went on this week. Month end went pretty smooth. Have some Sales Commission issues that need to be cleaned up. Created my Staff Meeting presentation for next Tuesday. I'm still waiting to hear from Superior Court on my request for some document copies. Hopefully, I get them soon so I can go up to SF. Probably going to do some furniture moving and painting this weekend. I'd like to get Bonnie & Tanner or Ellie Mae out to Henry Coe State Park for some stream crossing training. There is a BBQ at Delbert's on Saturday. I have no idea on where he lives, what time and what to bring. Need to get Lisa to call the barn and find out. Need to pay the horse insurance and estimated federal taxes.
